it's pretty tough to make the argument that our resume is better than any of those Last 4 In as things stand...especially as all 4 will have more Quad 1 games throughout the rest of the year. that said, I think we're pretty damn comparable with those next 8 schools.
we'll almost certainly only have one more potential Quad 1 game...and that'd be a neutral site re-match with Memphis, which ideally is for the auto-bid. this just more and more underscores how we need to be doing so much more in our non-con scheduling.
I'd say there's a path, but it's quite slim. this projection also only has one MVC and one A-10 program in...which seems ridiculous...and the path in get's even tighter should there be a few conference tourney upsets.
keep winning, hope Memphis keeps winning as well and hopefully we're cutting nets in Ft. Worth and this whole conversation is moot
The two requisites, as I see it, for us to make progress in attendance, revenue, and community support is an AD who is both ebullient and creative. We currently have an AD who is diametrically neither. In my memory the only leader we have ever had who possessed those qualities was Hayden Fry.
It's a real problem that needs real solutions. All we can do as alum to fix this awful attendance issue is just bitch and moan. But it's a serious problem that I feel didn't have to happen and could be resolved.
