Xavier trying to schedule last minute game?

I guess I don't have a huge problem with it. It's going to be tough to find an opponent that will do much to help them I would think. But I vaguely recall a mid-major doing the same thing in the last few years. Seems like pretty good thinking to me if you are under the maximum number of games allowed

But if they do find a game, I hope they get slaughtered.
 
Thats bs imo.
It's smart if they can pull it off. I doubt anyone good will play them. First, that team would have to have been eliminated from their tournament and two they would also need the game. Tough to find someone that fills that bill. A game against a patsy isn't going to impress the committee.
 
Exactly. It's a good plan but I can't see how they could pull it off.
The only reasonable thing I could think is maybe Louisville would be willing to play this weekend? But again, what if UL losing costs thrm a spot? Or whatever if a positive test pops up?
 
I think st. Mary’s did this once to get another game with patty mills on the resume.

I don’t recall if it got them in or not.

You are right! That was it. I knew some other team had done this.

If Lville loses they are def out, I highly doubt it would be worth the risk.
 
If I were Louisville I would consider playing them on Saturday.
Their resume is thin and Cincinnati-Louisville is only an hour drive.

Louisville May be out. They need another quality win.

And a loss would finish them for sure, They may very well be out, but I doubt with all the brackets out they feel the same.

I can't see the Ville doing it. The risks far outweigh the rewards. One, you can lose. Two someone can get hurt. Three covid covid covid A win against Xavier isn't going to help them near as much as loss will hurt them. The team that makes the most sense for them is Xavier. But, sadly for them, they are Xavier.

If you were the A.D. for the Ville, would you schedule that game? I for sure, wouldn't.
