So, the men play an exhibition game against Duke, and the women play one against Columbus State…

According to the schedule you are correct.

As usual.

Visited the LV forum to see what was being said by the experts. Seent this.

"Rick needs to tell Kim how to schedule an exhibition game with a team that has a pulse."

Maybe its just me but isnt an exhibition game suppose to be like that? I mean forget the obvious that everybody got to play and from what I read they got to play alot and it was needed.

But correct me if Im wrong. Losing an exhibition game is not better than winning one.

The men played Duke, arguably a tournament contender, testing their mettle against the quality team that they will have to defeat if they are to make a tournament run.

The women played a deeply inferior opponent, perhaps testing their rotations prior to the start of their season. How much do you learn about yourselves dominating an overwhelmed team by 100 points?

It ain't even Halloween yet. Both were exibition games.

Perhaps, their opponent was the one that was available to come to Knoxville on that date for an exhibition game.

I find it hard to believe she didn't know what she was doing when scheduling this type of opponent for an exhibition game. Same with Barnes.

But I ain't no expert, Im just thinking out loud and not arguing with anyone. Lol, although I think its stupid to compare the 2. Their overall goal might be the same, but they're on completely different levels.
