Coach said there were still 5 games to fill in the non conference which was surprising. I assume since they were part of an MTE that got cancelled they can still schedule 27 games? Said they were trying to fill those slots with D1 games but will fill with a couple of D2 games if it gets down to crunch time. Excited to hear about the progress and dedication of this team. Really looking forward to the season and hopefully getting to attend,
I previously had the Cincy game for Dec 15. It got moved to 12/9?apaladin wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2020 2:09 amSo we know 4 ooc games according to CBR:

He did say they had to shuffle some dates so I guess so.CharlieFU wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2020 11:55 amI previously had the Cincy game for Dec 15. It got moved to 12/9?apaladin wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2020 2:09 amSo we know 4 ooc games according to CBR:

Hats off to Richey and Donnelly, they are clearing trying everything imaginable to get us the best overall OOC schedule possible
Yep, I agree. He did say they wanted to be tested and wanted another high major, maybe 2. From his tone I suspect there won’t be much more to get excited about as far as the schedule goes. Still hopeful but I suspect we will see 2-3 non D1 games. You would think the 30 or so teams that ESPN left hanging could schedule each other but guess not.furpop16 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2020 2:36 pmDungeonRealm wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2020 11:40 amapaladin wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2020 2:09 amSo we know 4 ooc games according to CBR:

I noted CBR's stated wish to fill the five open games with D1's and fill-in with D2's, etc. as necessary. What I didn't hear him say was we needed to schedule the other-than-D1's to "work on things" as we have with past OOC schedules.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but I sensed Coach is ready to give this team the gas right away. Can't wait.

Furman: The Paladins open the season No. 79 in KenPom's rankings, the highest Southern Conference team. The SoCon has made waves in recent years by producing at-large bid contenders such as East Tennessee State and UNC Greensboro in addition to Furman. The analytic rankings will be more important than ever for mid-major teams hoping to snag an at-large bid after limited opportunities for statement wins in nonconference play. If you're a fan of a mid-major, you better hope they perform well analytically and that postseason committees trust KenPom.
I guess he may be taking the protocol literally. If you separate every person(pretty sure that’s not protocol) I could see only 44 peeps. If every person has to have six feet from the next person in every direction it would take many for the space to run out with only 800 seats. Again I don’t think that Is protocol.Roundball wrote: ↑Wed Nov 04, 2020 6:12 pmAnyone know the protocols he is talking about, besides limited attendance?
