There has to be some accountability on the Terps here as well. Those cowards won't come up and play us. It would be nice if they had the guts to come up, fill SECU and try to build a nice rivalry. There is no reason for them to avoid a home and home with us. Same goes for Georgetown.

We should play the other locals. You think Villanova likes the idea of having to play an Ivy, two below-average A-10 teams, and a who-knows-what-you-get Temple team every year? For a while, Nova thumbed their nose at the rest of Philly and their rep in the city took a hit. We don’t have a rep to take a hit on if we skipped out of the local scene but those games are still always tough tests to prepare for conference season. On the rest of the OOC front, there has to be better effort to get someone with a name to SECU. Look across the landscape and see all the power conference schools going to mid-majors. NC has gone to Elon and UNCW the last two years. Illinois went to Grand Canyon. Arizona State went to Princeton ffs. You have to likely schedule 2 (or 3) for 1s to make it happen but if you stagger the years, you can get a name team into SECU every year. Even if that ‘major’ team is a Temple, VA Tech, Rutgers, Wake Forest, those guys are looking for a footing in the Baltimore recruiting market too and might have a strong interest in a trip. But it’s annoying to see all the schools on par with us conference-wise get one marquee home game every year or every other year while the best we can do is a first-division MAC team.

Newton makes a lot of sense at Towson. No idea what kind of student/person he is, but the not quite big enough for BCS yet talented enough to win seems to do well in the FCS.

Games against Bryn Anthe and Goucher.
