For those wondering, American was 8-22 this year and finished last in the Patriot League. 307 in RPI. Would have been our third worst opponent this year based on RPI, ahead of only SIU-Edwardsville and Howard. Hopefully not many more of these.

They were quite young. Hoping they'll add several wins next season
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

Good to know.  Admittedly, didn't look any further than what I shared.

I'm all for scheduling cupcake games heading into preseason tournaments and conference play, but, man, I do hate scheduling 300+ RPI teams with a passion.

We aren't playing Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Notre Dame or UConn anymore in conference play.  We can't afford to have anchors on our strength of schedule.

Yep. Four of their top five were freshmen or sophomores, including their top three scorers.

Is this a 'local' Maui game where we get no choice?

No reports of that yet, so kind of doubt it.

Without doing the math, Creighton, Butler, and Xavier 2X per year more than make up for losing the rotational play of these teams.

One of the sophomores is transferring. But they should be better next season.  Will probably be an advertisement buy game

Does that mean we have to lose?  Or can we win in OT?

What are the chances we start a road, home and home against a marquee opponent, who would then open the new arena in 2018? I guess ND is going to open DePaul's new place.

This year? I'm guessing not since we already have 6 quality opponents (3 Maui, UW, Georgia, Gavitt). Next year? Pretty likely, in my opinion.

As a STH, I think we absolutely need 2 solid Nov / Dec home games each year.  I was even OK with Fresno State.  But December becomes a long sludge if we only have 1 decent home game.  With every game in HD on FSI et al, MU needs to incentivise people to continue to be STHers.
