Overall, a very weak non conference schedule. Wish we would stop scheduling NAIA and DIII schools. I understand that you want to get home games, but go ahead and schedule some home and home series and play the first game on the road and get them at the Montagne next season. I hate seeing Lamar play these cupcake teams.

Give Price a chance Big T. He only took over the show last season. Give him a chance to build the program including upgrades in the schedule, we'll get there. In the mean time, enjoy the wins because they are hard to come by.

Well, I am not to sure Tic will upgrade the home schedule if who they played while he was at McNeese is any indication.
His 1st year 2001-2002 (he probably inherited the schedule) Had 1 non conference home game vs Loyola of La.
2nd year (2002-2003) home non-conf.: Loyola of La, Tx Weslayan
3rd year (2003-2004) home non-conf.: Spring Hill, Loyola of La., Centenary, La Tech
4th year (2004-2005) home non-conf.: Louisiana College, Jarvis Christian, Spring Hill, W. Caney College.
5th year (2005-2006) home non-conf.: Louisiana College, Texas College, Miss Valley State, La Tech, & ULL
6th year (2005-2006) home non-conf.: Mary Hardin-Baylor, Spring Hill, Louisiana College
There was no 7th year for Tic at McNeese. The non-conf road games were impressive playing LSU every year, also had Richmond, Auburn (2), Texas (2), Alabama, Miss St (2), S. Miss, Houston, Liberty (2), La Tech (2), ULL (3), Arizona St, George Mason (2), and Ark- Little Rock - btw, Mcneese did not win any of these games with the exception of ULL once.

Head coaches typically don't build the schedule.

[geezer]

I hope he upgrades the schedule in the future, but I wouldn't count on it. Next year he will have his third recruiting class and if he is going to upgrade it should start next year.

Why don't we turn in a winning season before we start playing a harder schedule.

Why don't we turn in a winning season before we start playing a harder schedule.

Because playing those non-D1 games are meaningless wins and most fans don't care about these games.
