Otherwise, I’m not sure who would agree... most of the schools that would be worth playing also want/need a certain # of home games. Maybe with Coach Grant’s southern ties, we can get a game against an SEC/ACC/AAC type opponent in Tennessee, Carolina, Georgia or somewhere which would be reasonable for the Flyer Faithful to travel.

Better yet, let’s get a game at the Q against say, Michigan State (I was unable to think of a realistic team kinda near Cleveland who would be willing to play us and also would be worth it for us to play. Suggestions?)

Bring back the old Rock n' Roll shootout.

Realistically it would have to be a school that recruits that area hard or is looking to bring to a kid back home for a game like North Carolina sometimes does. Cleveland doesn't have a big alumni base for any school in the P5/BE outside of Ohio State. Northeastern Ohio isn't a big recruiting terrority for many schools in the P5 outside of some occasional guys for Michigan State

Davidson lucks out for being in the Charlotte area so they can get some ACC teams that want to play in the biggest city in state and home of many ACC alumni at the Hornet's arena. Our problem with neutral site games is I don't think anyone wants to play in Cincy, CBus or Cleveland. Ohio State wants to play up there occasionally but they don't want to play Dayton
