Actually, the schedule is better than it has been recently. That Gulf Coast Showcase not only has Purdue, but it also has Stanford, Louisville, LSU, Dayton. Maine, while being a mid-major, actually won the America East title last year over Albany but lost in the conference tournament. They were a borderline top 100 team last year and return just about everybody. Also, added to this will be an ACC team for the ACC/Big Ten Challenge game.
I've seen worse schedules.

I'll give you the Gulf Coast Showcase has solid teams but that's the worst home schedule for an alleged Big Ten power program I've seen in a long time.
Dayton loses its firepower and won't be the same. While Maine is a solid mid-major, the rest of the schedule is a joke. I'll be surprised if they sell 1,000 season tickets based on those teams. The biggest crowd may be the exhibition game against Katie Gearlds.
It appears Versyp is trying to load up on wins to fool the administration into thinking she's turning the program around. They'll do OK out of conference but they'll struggle to each .500 in the league based on playing that competition.

I agree wholeheartedly with Mildred. I can't believe any Purdue fan would be happy with the direction they have chosen. The "best" of that ooc schedule, and I use the word lightly, is the Gulf Coast tourney where they didn't choose the opposition. And how many season ticket-holders will be there?

It doesn't seem that Purdue, and a lot of other schools, feel that the quality of the opposition will have much impact on attendance or generating interest -- aside from a UConn or Notre Dame, say.
Or, even if a quality opponent does draw more fans, it's not enough to make an appreciable difference.
If so, Our Girls' Syndrome is still in full effect, as it's only about the home team, in terms of interest and attention, and not about the college game as a whole.

In this case funny you should mention ND as a team that can generate interest. Purdue used to play ND. That series was one of the first victims of Versyp's campaign to downgrade the schedule.

Most Purdue fans are not happy, and the attendance is already way down during Versyp's reign of terror. This season is just the continuing pattern of downgrading the schedule to cover up for the coach is destroying the program. Thankfully the bottom fell out last season, so maybe we can finally be rid of her sooner rather than later. The only concern is that she has already inflicted too much damage for the program to ever recover. Most of me thinks she probably has.

Putting there $ where their mouth is...Very challenging out of conference schedule for Toledo! Whole heartedly agree with this approach as feel Toledo will play up to standards of higher ranking schools, making us more competitive, especially at our own Tourney, and hopefully at the NCAA dance within the next few years. We have a young, very promising team and this is one of the best ways to raise our level of play more rapidly.

UNC will operate as the other Hall of Fame host site hosting Farleigh, Iona, and Yale. All 8 teams converge on Mohegan Sun the second weekend. This link has the full lineup. |
That looks to be worth the 70-min. drive.

Dawn Staley is tweeting that USC will open next season at home against a 2015 Sweet Sixteen opponent, but hasn't disclosed who it will be....

Nope it won't be either Duke or UConn, who are both already on our schedule for home games. This home opener will be a 3rd team. A good bet may be Louisville: Jeff Walz has been an assistant to Staley for the past two seasons with her USA age-group teams...
And I was wrong about the Texas game. USC will participate in the SEC/Big12 Challenge in 2016-17, and will travel to Texas to play them that year, not next season (2015-16)....

UCONN has a pretty great non-conference schedule this year.
Home: Kansas State, LSU, Nebraska, Notre Dame, and Florida State, with the Seminoles going to Mohegan Sun Arena.
Away: Chattanooga, Colgate, DePaul, Ohio State, and South Carolina.
I'm thinking we may have two more games, because with 18 conference games, that only gives us 28 regular season games.

In a vacuum the NC schedule looks pretty good. But unless South Florida gets ranked it looks like maybe 5 top 25 teams for the whole season. Such is the problem for the top team in the country relegated to a high mid-major conference.

UConn will play in the Maggie Dixon classic. Possible opponent is Kentucky if it can work out a schedule conflict.

That's why I just look at overall schedule and not just non conference. UConn has to schedule like this because of their weak conference so its not apples to apples to compare their schedule to most other teams.

While the AAC had only 2 top 25 teams last season (Massey http://masseyratings.com/rate.php?lg=cbw&sub=NCAA%20I), the SEC only had 3. For all the talk about how football money would squeeze out non-P5 schools from the elite of wcbb, you would think that the SEC, the P5 conference with the most TV income, would be able to field more top 25 wbb teams. The question is how much of that mountain of TV money is going to sports other than football.
Tenn for example has seen their wbb expenses drop from $6.1 million in 2012 to $4.2 million in 2014. (WBB State http://www.wbbstate.com/teams/TENN) at the same time that athletic revenue has increased from $103 Million to $105 million.
While the size of the pie in the SEC has increased, the slice going to wbb has gotten thinner.

This is about to change with the SEC network and the power 5, they will pour more money into women sports. There will be a big difference in 5 years. Teams like UCONN after Geno retired will dry up, his salary is over 2 million, they will not pay the next coach close to that and there will be a big decline, not sure this is good but what I thank will happen.
