Jay fans - What's the point of scheduling an NAIA opponent? Doesn't count towards NET, KP, etc, so an opportunity to pad your resume in the non-conference goes by. You put your athletes at risk for a game that would appear to have zero benefit. Is this all about home game revenue?

No point if you asked us. Most hate it and attendance shows that. It’s a local team so they didn’t need to pay a guarantee but it’s not a great look.

Like Keith Jackson would say, if you need a answer, look at the all mighty dollar. Cheap game, as you answered it.

Mac didnt want 10 days in between games and couldnt find a decent buy game. Wanted to avoid another 300+ rpi team. I kinda would prefer another game that counts even if it hurts SOS because sometimes 19 wins looks better than 18 when it comes selection time but thats Macs preference.
