That's the thing. It's the A-10. The comparisons don't stop at Rose Hill Gym. Siegel at VCU is electric and larger. Chaifetz is bigger and nicer, and when they win it's a better environment. Dayton is probably the best mid-major arena in college basketball. Eagle Bank/Patriot Center is bigger and fantastic when GMU is good. The Ryan Center is nicer.

As for NIL, George Washington is in for over $3 million. Dayton is at $6 million. Even at $2 million, Bona still doesn't come close to the top of the A-10.

When you have Philadelphia, New York City, DC, Charlotte, St. Louis, Chicago, etc., all in your backyards, it's hard to recruit to Olean.

Is Schmidt blameless? No, but I don't think they've ever had a coach achieve more consistently, and I doubt they ever will again.
