mike Murphy was on 1037 this morning. He specifically stated no power 6 conference team will come here. They have tried them all. They laugh at it when we call.
And yes it is time to demand more
They're not going to come here because of the money we pay and because we are a Tier 2 program. They have nothing to gain by doing so in the long run. Our best bets are to try and get teams like Middle Tennessee, Houston, Southern Miss, Western Kentucky, SF Austin and New Mexico State to play home & home with us. It won't be easy, but we clearly have to do better than Louisiana College or Southern UNO.
It's just the way it is. Even freakin' Gonzaga has trouble scheduling non-conference home games vs. Power schools.
No more D2 schools.
Schedule Tech, Tulane, USM, Houston and Rice as much as possible.
Schedule as many 1 for 1's with historical top 150 RPI schools of the non-Power conferences.
After that, just go on the road to Power schools.
Take the training wheels off.
