The A10 needs to set up a yearly challenge with the American or Mountain West or maybe CUSA.

I understand that the scheduling environment is getting more difficult by the day due to the p5 move to 18 and 20 game league schedules, and I am sympathetic to that fact. But, we can't find anybody decent to agree to play one more home and home series? The A10 is getting weaker, not stronger, we need to compensate for that.

We had an extra game to burn this year, just roll the dice and take a chance on playing a home and home vs. a non-p5 school that might end up being good.

It is just going to be difficult going forward to get better than a 7 seed and consistently advance past the 2nd round, unless we start to dominate the A10 and become the next Gonzaga or Butler or Creighton, and I am not sure that is possible, due to the
A10 being a tougher league than those 3 leagues.

We had arguably the hottest young coach in the country for 6 years, and we topped out at a 7 seed, and only got past the 2nd round once.

We need to get down to about a 5 seed if we want to consistently challenge for the Sweet 16 or better.
