Saturday--April 7th, 2012

If you didn't see the link in yesterday's comments to this SB Nation article on OOC schedule strength, you should read it.

In the linked story is another link to a 2012 ranking that has UMass ahead of eight established FBS teams.

It says what every Minuteman fan knows about this year's schedule. Since we are not eligible for either a bowl or for the MAC championship, it's a clever move to maximize our income in 2012. After this year, I would hope we would move towards a more standard schedule of two money games, one winable FBS game (such as a Sunbelt team) and a FCS team we could play at McGuirk.

The Cincinnati Bengals released their 2011 starting safety yesterday. That could open a chance for more playing time for Jeromy Miles.
