Opponent Tracker 2022-2023

- Start date
With Duquesne losing to Rice in the CBI today, the A-10 is officially done for the season.
Not a 2022–23 opponent, but I didn't want to start a new thread. We played these guys back in the NIT in 2015 and had them in the RC as an MTE campus game in 2018.

Sounds like a great candidate for the cupcake world tour that will be our upcoming non-conference schedule.
Not sure we can count a forfeit win against a team that doesn't exist.
St. Francis College Restructures to Further Advance SFC Forward; COO Tim Cecere Appointed Acting President - St. Francis Brooklyn Athletics

St. Francis' enrollment is actually growing and they moved to a new "campus" (three floors of an office building) last fall. But the new campus doesn't have any athletic facilities and they're selling off their outdated old campus to pay for the new one. So no surprise here.
so their explanation was BS, and they already wrote off athletics with the move last fall I guess.
Yeah, probably. Some of their teams already practiced/played at off campus facilities, but basketball played in the on-campus gym under November when it shut down. After that they played their home games and presumably practiced at the Pratt Institute's gym a mile or two away. Not sure if that was intended as a long-term solution or if the writing was on the wall.
Volleyball also played on campus, but their season ended at the same time the athletic center shut down. Same with water polo and the on-campus pool. Swimming kept going through the winter, but it's not clear where they practiced and they didn't have any home meets after November.

Is enrollment growing compared to 2021/2022 or is it growing compared to pre-Covid numbers? I think that many schools are seeing an increase this year compared to some recent Covid years, but many schools are well below pre-Covid levels.
Undergrad enrollment is down about 7% across the board compared to pre-Covid. Not sure why. This decrease in enrollment is concentrated in lower tier liberal arts colleges. I think La Salle is down 20-30% compared to 2018 for example.
Is the total incoming enrollment down 7% or is the percent of current high school graduates that are enrolling down 7%?
I believe it is total enrollment. This article has some numbers and potential explanations https://www.bestcolleges.com/research/college-enrollment-decline/#college-enrollment-over-the-years
Wonder if Goodman is reporting about the great hire at URI now:

When they describe Miller's time at Indiana, it sounds like it was pulled right from the Chris Mooney play book.

so Kimmie is going to take a 5th place A10 roster and run it back in the Big East to see how it goes? This should be entertaining.
Hoping coach English will depress the ticket prices enough I can go to a game in the next few years

Good point, but it is just a “transitional” year 😀
