I am posting this as a refresher on the subject. This may explain why we are rated so high. The RPI Gap.

While I don't understand or care to understand a word of this article, it is nice to know we now have a coach who does. Thanks for posting this, Icedragon, now if you can just learn to spell...

I don't think our schedule this year was put together to exploit the RPI and several of the games were on the schedule before Miles arrived here.

If you put aside the fact that this type of scheduling can exploit the RPI, it's also good for the fans that you are still playing quality competition and aren't playing some of the worst teams in the country (I will take playing a high mid-major Valparaiso type then Bethune-Cookman any day), and these schedules, whether they are inflated or not by the RPI, are still better schedules then most schools will put together, so I think it's a win-win. In the end, you still have to win a majority of the games for it to even matter.
