Let's try this again. RE-did my chart: 1 plays, ABE, 2 CDA, 3 BCD, 4 EAB and 5 CDE. Problem, you likely cannot play more than 4 games in a day, and if so 1 team would play 2 on a day. So need to extend to at least a 4 day tourney,

May be moot as I was told today they are still pursuing 3 additional teams,

Why are u still confusing everyone with numbers and letters? U don't need both!!! And, now u have 1 playing A. And 3 playing C. And 5 playing E! Maybe if you just used numbers, it would help you see it better. Just call the teams 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The numbers don't work.

so will Mt. Olive take this game seriously or treat it as an exhibition? What if they decide to roll out the D2 walk ons to rest their best player for their actual games that count on their schedule?

I have so many questions about our schedule that will forever go unanswered. After the initial shock of how terrible it is, I'm actually quite enjoying the mess. The MTE ongoing saga is delightful, can't wait to see how it unfolds.

It's like a message board smorgasbord.

Oh it is indeed. This place is gonna be apocalyptic, when we lose at William & Mary or at home against Florida Gulf State or any other 12 landmine games besides Auburn that we scheduled for our OOC this year. It's gonna be good entertainment, not to watch, that is gonna be painful, but the after analysis on here is gonna be top notch.

And then watching Mooney try to explain why we have a NET in the 130's and zero at large chances after going 10-3 in the OOC also delectable.

Football to Patriot League. Should basketball and rest of sports be concerned?

Exactly. Push back against low predictions, say that you're going to do well. Set a high bar and deliver on it. Don't say "well, we play in a league with a lot of great teams." I'm so tired of this quote in response to almost anything. Generic, inoffensive statements are a hallmark of how UR goes about talking about its team publicly. It's almost like we want to be invisible all the time, except when we don't (usually only after we've achieved something.)

Make some noise once in awhile.

Sports marketing in the age of social media 101 right here. We are stuck in a 1970's, 1980's mindset of marketing with these generic statements. No one is going to be interested in hearing more about your product if everything you say about it is generic/inoffensive.

Yes, we've made ourselves invisible. Really sad, we have a marketing program at UR, perhaps someone should talk to them about this.

Trap, I sincerely hope your post about extra time to scout Mt. Olive and hope that they are tired is entirely sarcastic or meant as a joke. If we need extra advantages over them, then our schedule is actually too tough, not the opposite.

It was as sarcastic as they come, BUT - i looked at Mount Olive last year.

They played NC State in an exhibition - lost by 10. 5 days later - they played UNCW and lost by 39. So again - maybe a smart move, Mount Olive will hang with UNCW, but then get blown out by UR?
