Average RPI of Opponents: 122.357
Average RPI of Home Opponents: 123.7
NCAA Qualifiers (5): Cleveland State, Connecticut, Louisville, Morehead State, North Carolina
Top 100 (5): North Carolina (3), Louisville (4), Connecticut (8), Cleveland State (52), Miami-Ohio (80)
The Good?: He's one of the biggest greaseballs in college basketball, but John "Slick" Calipari knows how to coach and he knows how to schedule. Cal has never shied away from marquee regular-season games, and North Carolina, UConn, Indiana (they're still the Hoosiers) & Louisville certainly qualify as headliners.
The (not so) Bad?: What I like about this schedule is the middle-tier opponents. There are a lot of opponents in the top 150-160 range, and some of them (Miami-Ohio, Rider, Cleveland State, Drexel) may be capable of putting up a fight.
The Ugly?: As in-season tournaments go, the Cancun Challenge sports a weak field. A matchup with a rebuilding program (either Stanford or Virginia) in the title game doesn't exactly get the blood boiling.
