Pretty much nailed it but it won't happen as they won't break the MetLife contract.

Cuse needs to revise the schedule going forward with a  1AA (Colgate after they meet min scholie levels or Nova, Wagner) yearly, a nearby MAC (a 2 for 1 with UMass, UB, Akron, Kent or Directional Michigan), a traditionally bad SunBelt or equivalent team in a great recruiting area (Ga St, ODU, JMU if they upgrade, Tulane, FIU, FAU, USA, TX midmajors),  Army or Navy as often as possible, and finally either the MetLife game or a decent named mid level P5 team (Illinois, Rutgers...yeah I know, Maryland, Vandy, Purdue).  I'd throw USF, UCF in that group too.

Finally, I'd schedule a game out in Hawaii bracketed around any year we play in the Maui Invitational. Cuse can just schedule Hawaii first and then alert Maui they are available.

Game 1 Labor Day Weekend:  1 AA game work with State Fair for giveaways.
Game 2 Home or Away:  the 2 for 1 with a team like Akron or UB or UMass (or crappy mid major)
Game 3 H/H with Army/Navy/USAFA or UConn/Temple (or other midmajor)
Game 4/5 ACC Game
Game 5/4 MetLife game or middling P5team
Bye set up the weekend before or after Columbus Day weekend depending on if we have a 1 bye or 2 bye schedule.

The whole goal is to give yourself a high chance of 3 wins in the MetLife years and a decent chance at 4 wins in the non MetLife years.

Scooch I agree the Dome is too big...I'd make the seats between the 20s (or 30s) individual seatbacks and make the roll out basketball seats the same (it might mean a new re-engineered system for those seats)
