Message: [QUOTE="CaptainJ, post: 1173813, member: 1553"] Certain folks among us are on record for years complaining that Duke and other major programs were rarely scheduled for our OOC. I always envied fans of teams that played tougher non-conference schedules(DUKE, UNC, Kansas, etc), although I know plenty of people on here get more hyped up about the St Boneventure Bonnies. We complain about the lack of perception as elite, but the elite teams generally schedule some tougher OOC opponents than we had for a long stretch. I'm excited to see us now playing some potentially ranked teams other than in tournaments. I get JB's logic of avoiding challenges early, and we could always schedule UConn for the late OOC game if it's that much of an issue. For my individual opinion, I'd rather be known as a team who takes on all comers, occasionally outside of New York before conference play. I respect those who disagree, though. To each their own.
