Play better non-cons and you would only need to get 5 wins to make the playoffs.Need to find those 6 wins next year. Naz always does 2 year contracts and Leo is in year 2.

This has been beaten to death on why Naz Scheduled Leo. RB backed out of their contract late in the game and Leo was one of the only options for Naz. Not sure on why they scheduled Dunbar. At the end of the day why does it matter who you play in non conference. It has little to no effect what happens in weeks 10-14. I also love all the bashing of Leo when Blue and Green teams play them but since its a cross over its ok.Why would Naz schedule Leo in the first place? And then schedule Dunbar knowing you have a guaranteed win against Leo.
Something about liking to play schematically extinct opponents.Why would Naz schedule Leo in the first place? And then schedule Dunbar knowing you have a guaranteed win against Leo.
The odds of Marist opening up with 2 Blue teams are slim and none and slim just left the building.

Thanks coach. You've articulated the Racki philosophy on scheduling very well.This has been beaten to death on why Naz Scheduled Leo.

Little Montini playing MC and BR this year. Marist has what, 3X the students? Meh.
I wouldn't question anyone's philology who's won 6 or 7 titles since 2001Thanks coach. You've articulated the Racki philosophy on scheduling very well.
Playing and winning in November have far more impact in recruiting than 2 games in AugustNot every year is going to be run the table and crush everyone in your path. Solid non-con games help focus and show where you need to improve. It also helps recruiting.
Comparing a non-con to a crossover is apples and oranges. In crossover world you have no choice.

didn't Montini reach out to Naz to play?
Thank you! Naz will still play a tough conference schedule and they must win 4 of them to make the playoffs.This has been beaten to death on why Naz Scheduled Leo.

says who? You guys should stop.
I think he delivered much of it to Lombard in his day.Racki can't take the Lombard heat.
I think this might be the year of the matchup though a couple years too late for both of us.Racki can't take the Lombard heat.

As has been pointed out, the Leo game in Week 2 is in the second year of a 2-year contract and supposedly was a last minute replacement for RB. However, I just don't get the Dunbar game in Week 1. Naz is coming off 2 consecutive state championships and chooses to ink Dunbar, when a very winnable game is already scheduled in Week 2? If Racki has Montini's number, as has been suggested, why not schedule the game in Week 1? Racki is free to schedule as he pleases. Naz fans can argue less-than-challenging non-con games have not hurt them the last few years. However, fans on MB's are also free to express their opinions on a strong program scheduling easy wins.Not recently. He's afraid of competition.
