Not sure why we never reach out to schools like Fordham or St. Joes in Philly.

Both sides have to want to play.

I've always wished the Jesuits did a better job playing each other out of conference, maybe setting up a program by geography or by RPI.

Detroit-Mercy and Loyola-Chicago have been decent schedule partners in the past.

I’m sure they have, but what’s in it for Fordham or St. Joe’s? The A10 makes follows a stricter scheduling model than the MAAC. If it weren’t for the long history, Bona probably wouldn’t be playing Canisius or Niagara on a straight up home-and-home series, either. It wouldn’t be a Bona thing, but an A10 thing. There just isn’t value in playing true road games unless they’re against top 50-75 programs. It stinks.

I’m curious as to where schools like Holy Cross, Colgate, Cornell, Detroit Mercy, Bucknell, and St. Francis PA are on the OOC. A good chunk of those schools should be recurring regional series. Le Moyne, too, should be a nice OOC option moving forward.
