Not true.  Baldi will be the first one to tell you we should schedule Cuse. His beef is with the Incarnate Word's instead of Iona or Manhattan. And I get that, though this is how the game is played with the OOC and mid majors.

Then why mention no NCAA teams or argue we can't get recruits like UK or Duke if your only point is that SJU is not playing more MAAC teams?

Is he now going to argue SJU's chances with say Rawle get better if they play Manhattan...

How many of those on the schedule were in NCAAs last year?  I didn't mention Duke Or Kentucky, someone else compared them to St John's. So with no top games on the ooc schedule, which games is the showcase for the recruits? Probation Syracuse? Or Maybe Wagner?

Baldi, Cuse is eligible for the tourney this year since they banned themselves last year . (They knew they weren't going to make it, so they banned themselves. What a joke).  But it still would not have mattered because a team's SOS is not affected by whether or not an opponent is eligible for the tourney.  But Cuse is eligible this year.

Still think the non-Conference schedule is weak?  Vandy, Indiana and later Syracuse.

Syracuse is good folks.

South Carolina aint a slouch either.

Schedule is MUCH stronger than I would like.  I'd rather see Prarie View A&M than Syracuse or South Carolina.

We will be underdogs by a healthy margin against South Carolina. They may not have the most talent in the world but they are all experienced players and aren't necessarily weak at any position

That game would have been a lot of fun to go to. Stupid that it's on a Tuesday .

Almost forgot South Carolina.  I think Frank Martin's team is going to surprise people this year,

I watched 'em play a couple of times last week in the Paradise Jam.  Their two bigs, Laimonas Chatkevicius and Mindaugas Kacinas, are playing well.  Duane Notice is playing sound and knocking down treys.  Don't forget about Sindarius Thornwell, either.  PJ Dozier generally plays smart and mature for a frosh.  They're gonna be a tough out like most of our games.

A lot of experience on that team.  They should be solid.

Isn't this when you remind me that I felt he should be fired?
