You can't have your cake and eat it too. Which one would you prefer? I would prefer a mix, where we can play DII's/DIII's and P5's. Also, McGrath was in a pinch trying to get this year's schedule in place when he was hired last spring.

There is a big difference in scheduling teams that are not division I and teams that are. This comparison is like in football the teams in FBS scheduling FCS (evn though both are technically division I). And in that breath I still agree there is no reason for FBS teams to ever play FCS teams. In basketball, division I teams shouldnt be playing division II or III teams, period. Need a home game, go find a lower division I school, they are out there. There are like 351 division I basketball schools. Find one to play.
