Barry has more power than some on here are saying to strengthen the schedule than some are saying. In the end, excuses are just that, excuses.

Add a November 27 date to the schedule @ Colorado State.  Our last trip to Ft. Collins under Weber was a flaming disaster.

Colorado state is not good. Medved will turn it around but they are probably a 200 plus RPI team

Is this part of the MW / MVC challenge?

They didn't do us any favors with this pairing.  CSU was 10-21 last season and finished with an RPI of 234.  The Larry Eustachy era didn't end pleasantly there, but I doubt that is a shock to anyone.  I think they have quite a few returning players, but not a good draw for the schedule.

 Yes.  I thought they tried to match up fairly even teams, but it doesn't look like it with this pairing.

You'd think it would be at UNLV and Valpo would get these guys--wonder who matches them --some sort of committee composed of people from both leagues?

Barry likely lobbied for a shitty opponent and someone granted his wish.

Looks to me like a one person committee with initials bh

Actually.. yes that's exactly what happened.  

 

Hinson cried to the Valley for Colorado State because he claimed it was the only team that would work for the Vegas trip - but we all know why he really wanted Colorado State.

 

Just another smoke and mirror show by Barry Hinson.

Who were they wanting us to play? We play in the Vegas Tournament November 22-23--probably against Nevada Nov. 23---SO that's going to be a long road trip, either staying in the west for the Nov. 27 game with CSU or having to fly back three days later for that game.

I'm just passing along what actually happened.  It's not a coincidence the 2nd place Valley team got a basement dweller in the challenge.
