per the Star News:
Louisville and Minnesota won't be on the schedule every year, but it made sense for Keatts to make the trips sooner rather than later. The coach believes the benefits for UNCW stretch beyond the hefty paychecks and warm reunions.
Those squads are built for the energetic style Keatts favors. The Pitinos employ defensive schemes almost identical to the ones he brought to the Seahawks. He hopes his players can get more out of these contests than if he'd scheduled a generic power conference foe.
“The No. 1 reason (to schedule those teams) is for our guys to have the opportunity to see how hard those teams play,” Keatts said. “They get the opportunity to see the system up close. I think it certainly helps.”
