and ask about the link between home OOC attendance and schedule quality.
Should be a fairly straightforward data analysis/regression problem.

Not buying this argument. Other teams around our same skill level/ranking are scheduling better than us. Feels like an internal issue.
My dad's alma mater! Stoked!
Skinn is playing it safe this year. If he can notch another 20-win season, he’ll be on a lot of short lists.
Who? Not saying you’re wrong, but I spend far too much time online and see most fan bases outside the P4 and elite mid-majors complaining about not being able to get good games.
(And before anyone brings up Dayton, please don’t. The only way we’re comparable is we both play in the A-10 — they operate as a program on a completely different level than Mason).
20-win seasons mean nothing now and he’s already on the short list of young rising stars in the profession. If he can get Mason to the tournament he’ll be catching a huge bag next spring.
Exactly, he’s already on P4 radars. As long as he puts together a respectable season, he’s going to cash in. I don’t even think he needs a tourney berth to be in the conversation.

But why would Tony leave Mason? This is his alma mater.

How many years or decades till we get our own Phil Knight?
Why did he admit to being in the running for the HC job at UMD?
He also said it would take a huge opportunity to pry him away from his Alma Mater. Umd was and it's now filled.
A-10 is the 6th best men's BB conference in the country
above the A-10 are the P4 and Big East
I see these as the only potential suitors for CTS, and CTS will have a lot of competition for those jobs.
I don't see him going to a lower ranked conference or withing the A-10 - except for Dayton and vcu, and I don't see those programs having openings in the next 2 years.

Didn't Tony Skinn sign a contract extension this past season?
Yes. He doubled his salary for next year and it increases every year until he is making 2.1 million by the end of it.
Which puts him within the top 3/4 paid coaches in the A10 (he’s not leaving for vcu or Dayton).

If and when he leaves, come to the west coast. My beaver friends in Corvallis might need a new coach by then.

How does that compare to what Kathy McKay gives? I’m assuming she’s our top donor?
Didn’t they get a massive donation for their baseball program recently?
Way way more. Our record is something like 3 million from all donations.
