Anyone with access to Kenpom's 2019 rankings able to share with us where UMBC projects for next season?

His projections for next season aren't available yet to the general public. They do offer them to colleges looking for help creating a non-con schedule, but I doubt that's any of us.

According to Paint Touches, TRank has UMBC projected as 268 for 2019.

UMBC is a decent buy game from an image perspective. But let's not pretend that beating Virginia last season means they will be a decent buy game from a RPI scheduling perspective. I don't think they'll be a huge drain on our numbers but they certainly won't help them.

What are people's thoughts on getting a game against a team like Pitt?  They are not expected to be anything but bad.  Though they will bring name recognition to pull a larger crowd (thinking old BE).  A home and home may be attainable.  A loss thought is much more risky to MU, what reasonable home and home isn't though in the RPI 100 range.

Pitt isn't doing a buy game and we're sure as $hit not scheduling H/H with them.

Why not?  I would take a H/H with any ACC team.

Home and Home with Pitt would be solid. It was a just a couple of years ago we had a tough game with them in the Garden.

Strictly from a RPI perspective, I like the addition. Back to back winning conference records gives some confidence but I really like that Odom schedules sub-200 non-con opponents. Even if they are down (and they likely will be) they probably still win 14-18 games, which is great for any buy team.

Scheduling Pitt probably wouldn't happen, since the coaches will be ex-Duke assistant against ex-Duke assistant!

And if they're both gunning for the Duke job, guessing Capel wouldn't want to be humiliated by 25+

Rothstein must read this thread ;D

A few other dates to keep in mind...

  • May 13: That week we may see Gavitt Games announced. Last year they were released May 20, but were delayed from earlier in the week due to MSU playing in the Phil Knight event.
  • July 23: That week we may see NIT Tip-Off matches announced. Last year they were released on Wednesday, July 26. I expect we will open with Kansas.
  • September 4: They typically release the Big East schedule early in September. It was delayed twice last year, but the earliest we'll likely see it is after Labor Day.

I'm not sure about this one. KU and Tennessee will be the best two teams in the tourney, but Louisville still carries a lot of name recognition in college basketball, more than Tennessee. I wouldn't be surprised if they put Kansas and Louisville together to get the "Blue Blood vs Almost Blue Blood" matchup in the first round and the top 10 team matchup in the championship round. I think we open with Tennessee. Tennessee will be favored on a neutral court, but I think they are beatable.

So far so good. Sleeping better, starting to smile, coo, and interact with the world a bit.

I think we open with Tennessee. Tennessee will be favored on a neutral court, but I think they are beatable.

It could be, but I think most of these events look at the final. If they start us with KU, that virtually insures (in their eyes) the final is either a top-10 matchup or the pseudo-blue blood matchup.

Frankly, I think all three teams are beatable. Kansas lost Graham and Mykhailuk to graduation and both Newman and Vick have left and will not be returning. Azubuike could go pro, De Sousa likely never plays there again, so they will lose at least 5 of the top 6 in their NCAA rotation with Mitch Lightfoot and Marcus Garrett the most experienced returning players. I realize they have a great recruiting class and the Lawsons, but those teams seem suspect to upset early in the season before they really figure it out.

Louisville lost their three best players and their sixth man. They'll also be vulnerable, especially after missing out on a few of their top grad transfer targets.

Interestingly, of the three other teams, I feel Tennessee is the one I would say in a vacuum is most likely to win this. But they are also beatable.

K State is a huge add. Elite 8 team that returns virtually everyone. Has anyone on that team declared? They will likely be really good.

A couple years ago I believe.  I think the Georgia series took its place.

Two years ago it was leaked that there would be a home and home vs. Utah. I believe it came from Matty V. My understanding is that Utah pulled out shortly after it was announced. Not sure there was ever a plan to try and get it back.
