RTD article behind a fire wall about our schedule

[Arachnid]

Any RTD subscribers care to summarize ?


Why?

Just same old, same old. How difficult it is to schedule power 5's, etc. Dayton's schedule is what ours used to be. Everyone else is struggling with scheduling p 5s as well. Warmed over article.

It's pretty much just covering Mooney's scheduling comments from the press conference last week:

JOC notes that Fordham and Loyola are the other two A-10 teams without a P5 on the schedule. Fordham is of course pathetically Fordham, while Loyola went out and scheduled a bunch of traditionally solid non-P5s to fill the gap...San Francisco, Santa Clara, Wichita, UNI, North Texas, Colorado State.

You would think that Mooney could reach out to all the former VCU coaches who are now at P5 schools, Will Wade, Mike Rhodes, Shaka and Ryan Odom.
That would be 2 ACC, 1 Big East and along with a Big 10 in 1 season Even if he had to play them on the road with no guarantee, it would be a plus for his program.

On the other hand, based on Mooney's success against them head to head, they might not want to risk it.

All those coaches (minus Odom due to sample size) has absolutely dominated him during each of their respected time at VCU. What makes you think Chris would want to get embarrassed again?
