Yep, good couple days for us. A-10 was 5-0, and Morehead State and Furman picked up wins. Hofstra did lose to Rutgers today, but no surprise there.
One thing that just occurred to me about our schedule that I had to double-check on was whether we can actually schedule another game to replace Detroit Mercy, due to the way MTE participation expands the max number of allowed games. Fortunately, it looks like we're okay. Here are the formulas for max number of games:
- 24 regular-season games and up to three games in one MTE
- 25 regular-season games and up to two games in one MTE
- 25 regular-season games without playing in a MTE
(A subsequent waiver by the NCAA is now allowing teams to participate in two MTEs as long as they still max at 27 games.)
We had a Scenario #1 schedule of 24 games plus a three-game MTE, but with the Detroit cancelation, we're now at 24 plus a two-game MTE, so we're free to schedule a new game against anybody and still qualify for the 27-game max under Scenario #2.
