WOW!!! Strong schedule. That will get fans to pack the seats!!!

If you look at past CAA schedules, they look a lot like what
we've had in the past—a minor uptick for sure, but juggernauts
won't be clamoring to come here with any regularity either. That
said, I think our conference schedule will bring in teams that
would have been our best/most interesting home game in most
years. Also, this year, I think it would be a feather in our cap
if we had one headliner to usher in the new era.
But expect plenty of Sacred Hearts, Fairfields, CCSUs, et al,
every single year ad infinitum.
Update: No St. John's this year. Would've been nice.

Heard that "this week" was the plan for the schedule so I'm
hoping that we have some more info here shortly.

I'm really curious how this schedule shakes out. Looking at
Hofstra's, they have some really nice dates already for a CAA
team—three A-10 teams (albeit low-end A-10 teams), including GW
at home; also Purdue, St. Mary's, South Florida and Iona. I
really hope our secondary games (non-Florida, non-West Virginia)
are better than they've been in the past. Sacred Heart,
Fairfield, CCSU, Bryant, Wagner, American, Farmingdale, like
last year ... not gonna cut it anymore.

The 2022-23 schedule page is wiped clean right now. Maybe
today's the day?

A dog of a home schedule if you ask me. Only five games and two
against Miami Hamilton and St. Joe's (LI). Am I really paying
the same price for a seat when there were eight games last year?
I do like Yale and Army, and the CAA home schedule is a bump no
matter what, but I expected a little more. Maybe that's on me.

St. Joe's is a wash compared to Farmingdale (both local D3), but
don't understand the Miami Hamilton booking. How about St.
John's, Adelphi, Manhattan, Iona, Columbia, etc?

What a joke! Two non-D1s? When was the last time that
happened???
Aside from Army, this is the exact same home schedule we would
have booked in the America East? Ridiculous!

Some other thoughts ...
- I do like the away schedule. URI is a nice addition to the
pillar games at Florida and West Virginia, and we'll get good
tests from Wagner, Bryant, Brown and Eastern Washington, who
were all in the KenPom top 220.
- No matter what you think of the home schedule, take solace in
this: There were six CAA teams in the KenPom top 200 last year,
including Towson at #75. The AE had Vermont at #54 and then
everybody else at 240 or below. I am pumped about the basketball
we're going to see, at least from our opponents ;D
- As for that home schedule, I mean, I guess for a brand new
team it wouldn't hurt to give everybody some run against a USCAA
team like Miami Hamilton. I guess? I dunno. I wish we had them
and St. Joe's as exhibitions rather than games we'd actually
have to pay full price for.
- No AE teams this year except new addition Bryant. To which I
say "good."
- Even if Towson isn't this massive name to anybody, our CAA
home opener's a big one.
- Very difficult finish to the season with our rivalry game
against Hofstra and then visits to UNCW and Charleston.
- Worth noting that we're on the Thu/Sat schedule now as opposed
to Wed/Sat.
- I don't think I'm out of touch, maybe I'm crazy, maybe it's a
sign of the times but ... I have no idea who the front man is
here. Do you?
