I, for one ,am excited about the prospect of a home-and-home series with Claflin.

Road trip to Claflin, y'all. It's happening.

McGrath scheduled 6 Non-D1s to Keatts 5 Non-D1s over 3 years. While McGrath scheduled tougher competition when it came to the non conference D1s, I'd rather see us go back to playing they type of schedules that we had under Keatts. Maybe I'm crazy but I like winning basketball games in December. Which McGrath never did against a Non-Conference D1 opponent in his entire tenure.

Got to play some decent games. You don't want to win 30 games, slip up in the finals and get left out. Not to mention, it gets you ready to play against the big dogs in March. Exposing your guys to a mix of tougher games and winnable games gives them a chance to test winning, but also go against better comp. IMO that's a perfect balance to get ready for conf play.

True. A mixture of what both staffs did is probably our best bet. It will be interesting to see what Siddle does. Just please a max of 1 non-D1! Those games are pointless. Not to mention Estime was injured in one this past season.
