Certainly not crazy, but knowing you’d be underdogs in all your acc games (almost half the schedule) it does feel a little foolhardy to add that Maryland game. The other difficult games had been on the schedule forever so not much you can criticize Gait for there.

Should be interesting to see how next year’s schedule shakes out. Gait has already gone on record saying he was a little naive in how he laid things out. I think Maryland most be at least a two year deal so I am guessing they are playing down in College Park next year. Holy Cross and Stony Brook must be considered flex games at this point, but those aren’t the teams your looking to drop. I’d be shocked if they dropped Cornell (who should be very good next year), Army (who should not be), Hobart or Hopkins. I would be surprised if they dropped Albany but not shocked. Anyways that’s a long way to say not a lot of wiggle room.

If they plan on playing a lot of freshmen next year I would tell the team to dial things down in the scheduling department. Georgetown seems to have built up their schedule incrementally over the years to build confidence. Hard to do in the acc but I don’t think it does the freshmen much good to play many games like the one we just witnessed.
