WAC Schedule Follow-Up

Jason Kaneshiro looks at Hawaii's WAC schedule and finds some things that could be "less than ideal" for UH.
» There are no home conference games in September.

» Back-to-back road games at Louisiana Tech and UNLV (Sept. 8 and 15) means spending preparation time traveling back and forth to the mainland, or remaining on the continent and possibly incurring more expenses.

» Playing at San Jose State on a Friday, meaning one less day of preparation for a road game.

» A road game at Nevada in mid-November, meaning the likelihood of poor weather.

» Playing Boise State on Friday after the Nevada game on Saturday, again creating a short week of preparation for a big conference game.
Nah brah, you know what all that is?



Mynahs, cuz!

Yeeeesh. Anyway, the article also has a sidebar saying UH could be on ESPN three times this year.
As it stands now, Hawaii will have three games televised by ESPN. Two of those broadcasts will be WAC games played on Fridays. The first is at San Jose State on Oct. 12 and the second is at home vs. Boise State on Nov. 23. The nonconference home game on Dec. 1 with Washington will also be shown on the cable network.
And maybe more, depending on what games are announced on Monday, and that announcement will happen...



Guaransballbarins!

Eh? Ferd Lewis writes about the schedule and has a few quotes from Karl Benson and Herman Frazier that could be read as being somewhat contradictory.
Conference athletic directors concluded two days of schedule meetings in conjunction with the WAC Basketball Tournament yesterday. Commissioner Karl Benson said, "We've tried to wait as long as we could."

Without mentioning UH by name, Benson said, "There is at least one school trying to finalize their non-conference but we felt it was critically important that we get these games out because there were eight other schools that were ready to move on."

Benson said schools needed to begin making charter flight reservations and other arrangements.

In his statement, Frazier said, "Now that we know the WAC dates, we'll finalize our non-conference matchups."
But maybe it's not supposed to be read that way... In any case, none of this will matter anymore sometime on Monday. Have a good weekend everyone.
