We did everything we could to get out of the Coppin Atlantis game. It was handed to us by the tournament. Tried to even buy the game out and simply not play it, or swap it. No dice. From what I understand there was too much cooperation needed from other Atlantis schools to make it happen and of course other schools would then want to try and do the same thing too.
Keep in mind you also need a schedule your team can be successful against. Many questions with this year's team. From my chair this schedule -- both non-con and A10 -- provides more than enough obstacles to keep the staff from being overconfident. Lets not forget ourselves. We arent a great opponent for a lot schools on their schedules either. In Atlantis alone we have the worst RPI of the field.
If the headline at the end of the season is "Flyers just miss NCAA field, schedule cited as reason", I will be doing cartwheels in the street b/c we're way ahead of this rebuild project.
