Got me to thinking.  What is your guess that our RPI will be going into the 2017-18 season?  Low RPI really makes it difficult to schedule higher profile teams.

We could schedule all top 100 teams in the RPI but you have to win games against those teams to actually have your RPI go up a significant amount.

Interesting point made by Coach McCasland to me this last week...all CUSA teams' RPI's fall once conference play begins due to the quality of the conference teams. He really thinks the conference is better than it's rating, but hopes as UNT improves...and other conference teams improve...RPI's might increase during league play and CUSA can become more than a "a bid league".  His examples were, of course, Middle and Western who often have decent ROI's in OOC play, but see their ROI's drop once conference play begins.  BTW...he is pretty positive about seeing a nice win total improvement this year!

Not super impressed. 125k on 3.2 million. If he needs to safe his job, he will be ok to forgo that to keep the job if he feels that is what he needs to do.

Also, not more than one sub-300? well, you can still play about 5 that are likely 230 to 280 and likely there will only be one falling completely off the pace.
