Ugh, I was realllllly hoping for a home game on 2.2 so Kadeem Smithen could have his own Second Career Senior Night Game/Ceremony appropriately held on Groundhog's Day.

bit.ly/2BfCX04Schedule inside. No NFL Sunday home games is a great touch, 5 sets of 2 games in 3 days isn’t ideal. Western trip closes the season, big 4-game homestand in mid-February should be fun. Only 1 team projected to be in the top 4 in January, and that’s at home with Canisius. Dodge Rider at home and Quinny on the road. Ill take it. Good coaches can handle the 2 games in 3 days short turnarounds. I guarantee you JC won't say anything about it. Doesn't mean we'll win most of them on the back end (this year especially rebuilding) but we'll be well coached. This staff will prepare hard and have the team ready to go. No more field trips.

Charleston and Harvard are pretty good games. I'm less excited about Cal Poly, Colgate and Lehigh, but given the mess which the prior regime left, I am not complaining. Only complaints should be if they don't win all of them. So it's your high expectations that we should win ALL 5 of the games in KS's post?

Charleston won the CAA last year (and brings back 2 of its top 3) and Harvard is the favorite in the Ivy this year and has 2 NBA prospects on their team. Those might be blowouts. Winning one of those games would be massive. I love JC, and I think there’s some solid players on this team. But we have to temper expectations given what he’s up against— inheriting a roster that lost its top 4 scorers from a team that went 8-24 and being given that group in May. He should be coach of the year if he can go .500 in the MAAC.

I'm not expecting a winning record just that it is POSSIBLE.

WTF do I need to correct? If they don't win those 5 games let's give the guy a nickname or the guy can recruit but can't coach his way out of a paper bag. Let's see what happens. I'm ok if they struggle but I know this fan base isn't and will be calling for this guy's head like they have for all others who were under .500. Been there done that.

Well you are wrong again. Nobody has high expectations for this first year except you who has said you will complain unless they win ALL 5 of the OOC games listed in the post above. Papi (The Troll):

Full schedule has been released. Overall for a new head coach it's definitely a manageable one. Harvard visits on December 1st
