Brighton Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 19 hours ago, billiken_roy said: with only one returning starter why would you want to play many if any high D1 teams in the non conference schedule? what would those very likely losses prove? last seems to me that fordham did very well with their extremely weak schedule last year. wins are what are more important. 20 Wins ! ™ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_davola Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Probably not a hot take, but this year could possibly bring the lowest attendance numbers in Chaifetz history. No stars..no hype..abysmal schedule….City SC - doesn’t bode well for the Bills.

Cowboy II Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 -has anyone seen advertising for the season? haven't there normally been billboards around town by this time? I haven't seen or heard a thing -I'm sure the ADept is developing tactics to keep or get butts in the seats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted September 20, 2023 Author Share Posted September 20, 2023 Dayton Daily News' Dave Jablonski rolls out his A10 predictions. Top 5 consistent with most everyone else; Dayton, VCU, St. Bonnie, Duquesne and St. Joe are his top 5. GW is 6th in his ranks, and I've seen them dead last in others. Loyola is 9th, and I've seen them as high as 3rd. No love for the Billikens, picking them 10th. It's going to be a wild ride. No one really knows what is going to happen. https://www.daytondailynews.com/sports/dayton-safe-pick-for-no-1-spot-in-hard-to-predict-atlantic-10/PNTHUXSJUNE2LJBT6JPURPQM5A/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy II Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 -another season and SVU picked to win the league, did the sun rise in the east? -SVU opens their season against SIUE, look out for the "Cougs" -if Richmond is in the PIG is that the end of Mooney? seems his seats gets warm and finds a way to survive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City SC tickets are not cheap and there are only so many casual sports fans in the area. Many families will be recovering financially after the soccer season as it relates to money spent on sports.
