I literally just came on this board to see if there were any rumblings about picking up an opponent for this week.

Before the season started I was advocating for a Top 100 type OOC opponent to be added.

But right now, you're right .. we need a very winnable game, to allow this team to work out some kinks and get their swagger & rhythm back.

We heard Shoes has been fielding calls as recently as Sunday via the mods. The clock has likely expired to work someone onto the schedule for this week. But next week is open too. We play Friday and then not again until the following Sunday 1/24.

I hope we can somehow get a win over Wisconsin and add a game next week before playing Indiana like Monmouth, NJIT, Rider or St. Peter's as they are all in NJ or possibly another similar team who is somewhat local.

UCF would be a good test, they are 3-3 and they have the available space for an OOC game in between 1/17 and 1/23 maybe 1/20?

Alot of these low major, some mid majors are playing 2 games back2back.every weekend eliminating teams that don't want to play 5 games in 9 days.

One big Win will turn this ship back around. I was actually in favor of scheduling a cupcake to regain some confidence back, but I don't see that happening anymore.

Let's beat Wisconsin and get our MOJO back!
I would not be surprised if we schedule a game on Tues. Jan. 19 or Wed. Jan. 20. In fact, I think it's more likely to happen than not.

I’m on the fence on this ...but I think we are better off with the down time right now

Pike has been very good in getting us to play very well with extra time to prepare. The extra time served us well preparing for Maryland last year, as well as Illinois this year.

If we use these two weeks to get closer to 100% healthy and are well prepared to be the differences That get two wins to get back to 5-4/9-4...(and in the national rankings)...we will be set up really well for the stretch run of 11 league game’s in 6 weeks.
