Dave Thomas did a good interview with Coach Byington where he talked about the schedule.
He said that about 8 non-conference games were already scheduled (UVA, ODU, GMU, ECU were the ones he mentioned).
He also said he plans to have a "national schedule" and wants to play "big name teams" and challenge the players. Also said that he wanted JMU to get nationally televised games so JMU could be seen on television.
He wants scheduling at JMU to be difficult because it means teams don't want to play us. Right now he did say there were some teams that may think we are vulnerable.
He also mentioned recruiting and scheduling. Talked about the GT game and how he wants to continue to recruit down there. He also mentioned playing more OOC games in the northeast. While he did say we do play games up there for conference games, he wants more OOC games up there as well.

Really like this guy the more I hear him.
