    I hate buy games, and I know I complain endlessly about them, but if our four buy games are Western Kentucky, Vermont, NKU, and CofC, I promise to not complain. Not one word.

    Understood on both fronts, but has the culture/financial situation of the program changed that drastically in such a short period of time? I imagine they still need to be on the recipient end of one or two buy games at this point.

    I agree. I just hope they realize that because one way or another they need to get good teams to play them. Since they are in a conference with 13 other teams that will not be good, it's important to seek out those types of OOC games.

    I would love it if Xavier played them. I know we won't do a H&H with them, but I wouldn't complain if we did.

    EDIT: Middle Tennessee will not be good next year. I think their ceiling is the bubble of the NIT.

    I almost threw a sneaker through the damn television. HATE HIM SO MUCH. I was happy WVU rolled them by 25 this year.

    Lol no sympathies, having lived around WVU fans for a year.

    No argument here, I'm on the milder side of the spectrum and I can't even put up with some of our fan-base. Completely delusional. Regardless, I hate Buzz Williams and that's the take home point here.

    Here is the Enquirer's take (link).

    Additional details weren't provided regarding which teams Xavier will likely host at Cintas Center for early-round games, and which it will play later in Las Vegas.
    While still murky, the announcement of the Las Vegas Invitational field makes the Musketeers' 2017-18 schedule slightly clearer.
    The schedule will include a home date with Baylor University, a game that will conclude a home-and-home series between the schools.
    Xavier visited Baylor in December, losing what was then a meeting of top-10 ranked teams Dec. 3 at the Ferrell Center.

    I was under the impression we had games scheduled with Northern Iowa and Utah in addition to Baylor?
