As a member of a one-bid league, RPI is irrelevant.

Not true. RPI is relevant for getting anything but a 15 or 16
seed in the tournament, which is an automatic loss.

Fair enough. I'll just say that this isn't a year where I'm
concerned about RPI.
BTW, Norfolk State begs to differ that being a 15 seed is an
automatic loss. But I get your point.

Norfolk was horrible last season at 5-13 outside conference
play, which included many blowouts! I wouldn't very excited
about this pickup.

Correction: They were 12-4 in the MEAC, got the 2 seed in the
conference tournament and lost in the title game to NC Central.
They were 5-13 on the road.
It's arguably the best program in arguably the worst conference
in the country. But this will be a good test and hopefully a
nice win to close out non-conference play.

No, I was accurate ;D
In Conference: 12-4
Out of Conference: 5-13
Home: 10-2
Away: 5-12
Neutral: 2-3

SIREN:
HTML https://twitter.com/ShawnHeilbron/status/895691005688766465
For reference, Monmouth's OOC is:
Nov. 10, Bucknell
Nov. 12, at Seton Hall (NIT)
Nov. 14, at Lehigh
Nov. 19, at Virginia (NIT)
Nov. 22, at UNC-Asheville (NIT)
Nov. 25, Penn
Nov. 27, Albany
Dec. 2, at UConn
Dec. 6, Hofstra
Dec. 9, Kentucky (at Madison Square Garden)
Dec. 12, at Princeton
Dec. 22, at Yale
Were I a betting man, I'd say the two Heilbron is referring to
are one of either Lehigh or Bucknell, and UConn. Really any two
of these would be good additions, but I don't think we'd add a
third Ivy to our schedule (Brown and Columbia are already there)
and Seton Hall and Kentucky have already released their
non-conference schedules. Thoughts??

I would love to see SB play UCONN.

I'd lose it if we played Uconn. That would be a great get.
Especially as a home game. Uconn is the exact kind of school we
should be playing. Public, regional, with a brand name to boot.
They're the exact type of school we should be playing. I'll take
games against the Big East, A10, and Ivy League, but most of
these tiny schools in the MAAC I have zero interest in playing.
I couldn't give a **** about playing Niagara, Siena, and others.

UConn would be a steal for us at home. Win or lose it would be
an emotional win since they were National Champs a few years
ago.

Good find, DC.
Yale and Princeton have release their non-conference schedules
and we aren't on them. So that leaves Kentucky, UConn, Virginia,
Seton Hall, UNC Asheville, Penn, Bucknell and Lehigh.
Two teams that are already locked into the PK-80 are UConn and
Bucknell. Also, Heilbron already pointed out that we're hosting
a 2017 tournament team, which points to Bucknell again. Kentucky
(!), Seton Hall and Virginia are in that category, but the Bison
seem far more likely.

HERE'S A BIG ONE:
Looks like Stony Brook at UConn is confirmed! Which also all but
confirms the theory about the Phil Knight Invitational.

Uconn is a great get. Even as a road game. Their still a strong
program, but they aren't what they once were. I'd love to come
out of there with a W as unlikely as that may seem.
