Where does this sit on the Cup cake scale?

Is this what the AAC wanted?

Looks pretty weak to me

Only been a little over a month since the AAC hired Tranghese as a consultant, so not aware that any directives have been issued on scheduling. And don’t forget - took almost a decade for the SEC to go from a handful of annual NCAAT invites to being “top dog” after implementation of Tranghese’s recommendations for that conference.

What an UIC?

University of Illinois at Chicago. Niners 3-0 all time vs the Flames. Will be first meeting NOT held on a neutral court.

So they are us of Illinois?

Yes and no. Though there are 12 public institutions of higher ed, only three are campuses of the University of Illinois system - Chicago, Champaign-Urbana, and Springfield.

Including an NCAA first round game.

VA Tech and Virgina are good names to have on the schedule. Definitley better than last year.

This is actually a pretty solid schedule. Va tech, indiana state, davidson, etc. Not sure if they are real resume win type teams, but lets win them and worry later
