It's a New Orleans NAIA (maybe DIII?).. so I'll let this one slide. I don't like it, but I'll let it slide.

@ Michigan

Blue Mountain (part of Pentagon Showcase series)
@ Sanford Pentagon Showcase @ Sioux Falls, SD **games vs South Dakota, Youngstown St, Northern Colorado**

Who the heck is Blue Mountain? I guess it was part of a package with the Pentagon Showcase package? I Guess the other games might help make up for it.

@ South Alabama
Rust

WHO???? What the hell is a Rust?

Troy
@ Alabama A&M

Hell, I get the 2-1 thing if that's what it took.. but .. REALLY?

William Carey

This is probably the only NAIA game I actually don't mind being on the schedule. Again, one NAIA game vs. a nearby school I can live with.

@ Florida St
vs Mississippi St (played in Jackson, MS)

Quote:"This will be one of the most challenging schedules we've had since I've been here, both in and out of conference play," Sadler said.

I really hope this was a sarcastic quote just made up out of thin air...
I guess my question is it Sadler getting these games scheduled or our Athletic Director?

Since he's been here, have we had a harder OOC schedule than playing at Michigan, at Florida State, MSU at a neutral site, and the defending winner of the Sun Belt's NCAA tournament bid? The crap teams are mega crap, but on the whole, which of Sadler's OOC schedules thus far were so much tougher that his statement is unreasonable?
