Message: [QUOTE="pfister1, post: 1412403, member: 285"] I wouldn't do it. I want to see them continue using the home and away matchups that are scheduled against real opponents to be scheduled against eastern schools, especially teams in NYC, Philly and DC. They make good matchups and give the fan base outside of Syracuse the best chance to get to see games. Put Nova, St. Johns, Gtown, Maryland, Temple and even UConn on the schedule on a rotating basis. Even add GWU, LaSalle, St. Josephs, Seton Hall from time to time. While Gonzaga would be a great matchup, playing in Spokane adds a road game that very little of our fan base would be able to attend. Playing at Boise even in a 2 for 1 scenario would be terrible. We gain little by bringing them to the Dome as an opponent (not a particularly attractive hoops matchup - kind of like a Cleveland State) and playing them in Montana would be a difficult trip and wouldn't serve any of the fan base.
