Siena is now ranked 119 by Sagarin. We dropped 1 spot after beating Marist and a couple more after the loss the Monmouth. Davidson, who got the A10 invitation ahead of Siena, is not ranked much higher than we are and that is probably because of their schedule. We had our down years but I feel we have a historically better program than they do. I would like to see Davidson added to our future schedule along with other A10 teams. We used to play St. Joes. We need to upgrade our schedule to put fannies in the seats and get a higher grade recruit. It would be nice to consistently be in the top 1p0 again.

At Albany, St. Bona, Hofstra.
Home to Bucknell, Cornell, Vermont.
To be added: three more games or one more game and an exempt event. Teams can play either 29 games or 27 games plus the number of games in an exempt event.
Loyola is off the schedule I believe.

Next year would be the year to go to an exempt event and play a couple of BCS programs on a neutral floor. A senior dominated team (Quis, Brett, JO, Lavon) and sophomores (Nico, Kenny, Evan, Kinnon) with a lot of seasoning hoping to take a big sophomore jump. I'd love to see Siena to go Puerto Rico, Paradise Jam, Cancun etc

I'd love to see Siena to go Puerto Rico, Paradise Jam, Cancun etc Looks like most of those are booked, Alaska has room for two teams but is looking for a top 175 RPI team in a big six conference: www.bloggingthebracket.com/2015/11/30/9810744/2016-17-college-basketball-early-season-tournaments-events-MTE-neutral-siteVery likely to do an exempt event next year it will have to be the same crappy deal as this year where you are stuck going on the road to play the big boys.

Only exempt event for next season I could see happening is the Hall of Fame Tip-off at Mohegan (MAAC sponsored). Someone here had mentioned Puerto Rico to me but that field is full for next season.

Schedule the big boys- hopefully we'll be like Monmouth and pull upsets. Without any changes, next year's team is very, very deep.
Wonder if Jimmy would schedule a game with Illnois or somewhere out Midwest for Brett?
Do we see Quis and Long play Georgetown/Maryland?
Any shot at the CBE classic for next year? Kansas?

The Emerald Coast Classic needs a team. Fran's Hawkeyes are a host team.

Teams can play either 29 games or 27 games plus the number of games in an exempt event. Loyola is off the schedule I believe. 6-0. Weak schedule. A lot of graduation losses in that schedule and we may be even better. We need to go minimum of top 100 rpi only for the rest. Go big.

Cash in that Maryland chip and get in the Barclay's or the Iowa chip and go south.

FGCU would appear to be a upgrade over Loyola.
