National Teams:  Michigan, Notre Dame, Northwestern, Michigan St., tOSU, Penn St., Illinois, Purdue, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, Maryland, Vandy for Recruiting.  Other schools if available (USC, UCLA, Texas, etc...) should always be considered as available for TV/branding reasons.
 
Academy Teams:  You play Army, Navy for Recruiting and Army, Navy and USAFA anytime out of respect.  One for Ones always.  However a 1-1-1 with Army/Navy can work too.  The extra game for Yankee Stadium, Baltimore, etc...
 
Wannabe National Teams:  Rutgers, USF/UCF, ECU  Home and Homes are ok
 
Mid-Majors (Should be 2 for 1 or 3 for 2):  UConn/UMass, Temple, Akron, Kent St, Toledo, Bowling Green, Ball St, NIU, E/C/W Michigan, UMass, SUNY Buffalo, Old Dominion/James Madison (ODU is upgrading and I think JMU is about to), and finally MTSU.  UConn I would consider a 1-1-1 (Yankee Stadium)
 
1AAs:  Since these are at home...not much impact on recruiting
 
TexanMark Approved List for Road Trips:
(Some of these games are of dubious benefit for recruiting but are outstanding for fan travel.  I want fun, touristy things to do, weather considerations and finally a higher chance for a victory.)  Most of these games are okay to do a home n home since they offer a nice trip for all involved.
 
1.  Tulane
2.  USF:   TBD on how easy it will be but superior location overrules
3.  UCF:  TBD on how easy it will be but superior location overrules
4.  FAU/FIU
5.  UTSA/Texas St
6.  Houston
7.  Hawaii (game around Thanksgiving time and when Cuse is scheduled to play hoops at the same time in Hawaii)
8.  Memphis
9.  FIU/FAU
10. Southern Miss/South Alabama (close to NOLA)
11. Louisiana (In Lafayette nee: SW LA)
 
Finally, it is still TBD if the coaches are going to dip into Texas.  If they do scheduling winnable TX roadtrips against North Texas, UTSA, Texas St, Houston and Rice would be prudent.
