So here are the final rankings of the D1 Conferences. Continuing with the rationale from me previous post, I believe we need to focus on scheduling teams from the Top 5 Conferences only. I am surprised to see the West Coast Conference ranked so high, but, I think this is great opportunity for the Stags. The top 3 teams in the WCC (i.e., San Francisco, Santa Clara and Loyola Marymount) are fellow Jesuit institutions. There is no reason why we could utilize our Jesuit ties to schedule at least one game per year with one of these WCC schools. The Ivy League was stronger than I thought, but, I think one game per year should be the max.

Rank Conf
1 ACC
2 Pacific 10
3 Big Ten
4 West Coast
5 Big East

-----------------------------

6 Conference USA
7 Big West
8 Ivy League
9 Missouri Valley

11 Colonial
12 Mid-American
13 Horizon League

15 Southern
16 Patriot League
17 Atlantic 10

Isn't it obvious that the NCAA has no respect for the MAAC. The only way to enhance our position is to remove ourselves from this league. Otherwise we will experience this frustration every year. And I do know that this is easier said than done. A possible alternative is to put yourself in a position where you could contend for a national championship and that may mean it is necessary to move to Div 2 or 3. At least the opportunities would be more available there. I am simply tired of having to go through this nonsense with the NCAA so frequently.
