There are not.

Where do you get that?

They have Colgate, Boston U, Columbia, Monmouth and Coppin State. Five.

You can eliminate any one of these and go to 8 power conference games. Which is more than every other school in America. But like I said, and also others, there are a great many schools that would make for better opponents if you were going to do this.

Add the two exhibition games against Merrimack and Queens and that's seven. These are part of the season ticket package.
I also believe there was a game to be added Nov14th or 15th - which may have already been announced by now. If so, you get to 8.

I don't agree that's how XL home games work - we could get 15k fans for PC vs 8k for a cupcake at XL - so that's the equalvalent of playing a cupcake for 2 home games. Additionally, we have gone to pricing games differently the last few years in basketball and football - not one size fits all. So we might charge $35 or $40 for PC vs $20-$25 for s cupcake.
Lew was a good AD and a friend but the cash cow model he used is now outdated - people have too many entertainment options - and tickets are no longer the same $15 per game for every game. You need to be more nimble today.
If we could get additional TV money for better games that would help too.

Lew was a friend? If this is true it makes your obsession with Bunkey even creepier.

I do understand the model that Benedict is pursuing and within that, a one-off neutral site game against PC in Boston or a home & home with PC's home game in Boston would work. I'm not sure how willing PC would be to those terms however as they now can claim that they have won one NCAA tournament game during the lifetime of current recruiting targets. These are high times for Friar fans.

You know, you're right. They should remove Queens and schedule PC for an exhibition game!

I am throwing a Hail Mary pass and trying to coach you up on this and hope something sinks in.
As I stated, Lew's old cash cow model is obsolete. The dogs are not eating the food. You can argue they should but they aren't. People want quality and entertainment today or else they will spend their discretionary money elsewhere.

People want wins and a new conference.

Has nothing to do with Perkins. Perkins was selling them the Big East.

I think you really limit yourself in life when you choose to only connect with people of one age demographic, income or race. I was never brought up like that - always greet everyone with respect. It's amazing when you do that, how many different types of people you can connect with.
 
Ok I have an easier answer for this thread.

Let's play PC the Rt6 "Rivalry" - either home and home or at Mohegan once and Storrs once. Why not?
