Ah I gotcha. Agreed.

At the end of the day, gotta have willing parties. Balancing act with scheduling home and homes vs buy games I’m sure. Feels like we’re trying to level up our opponent quality and some of them just have no interest in coming to Denton.

There are 350 teams in Div. 1, we can't be so undesirable that we can't get any of them to play us. Like I posted above to Matt, there should be plenty of good to decent opponents from many conferences that should be viable opponents. 349 other teams get their schedules filled and put out, there is no excuse constantly being the last team to finish.

There should be no reason we are not playing an all-D1 schedule every year.

Sure but you don't want to fill your OOC schedule with a handful of teams in the 200-300 level. You're right that there is no excuse for being this close to the start without a schedule ready though. But if it takes up the last second to get App State in Denton rather than Alcorn State, I'm okay with that.
