Tech or Dayton in Rnd. 2), vs. Creighton, and vs. Dayton (potentially twice in the regular season). Maybe more. Creighton and Dayton are luckily at home, too. We need it for our own non-conference resume, and it would help the CAA as well come selection time. Plus, as you guys stated above...the CAA slate isn't as intimidating once you've played better competition (kudos to W&M for the trifecta of UCONN, Wake, and Maryland). Good luck to Madison and Ga. State tonight...I won't be saying that when the first CAA games begin... I may be a dreamer, but I really want Mason to get 3-4 wins out of their match-ups in Puerto Rico (Villanova, and Ga.

That's why Hofstra is playing Kansas (along with the fact that Larry Keating is an old friend of Pecora's from their Adelphi days). And also, what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. Playing UConn, Wake and Maryland or playing Kansas and UConn gets you ready for the ODUs and VCUs Michael, you’re exactly right.

You can underwrite fairly substantial locker room improvements with that kind of money. Plus, Delaware isn't as intimidating when you've faced those guys.

Is he thinking the competition will help the team play better like the 07/08 season after nearly beating Georgetown?
