I would definitely like to get Marshall and ECU back in the rotation. Also, just thinking from a regional perspective, I would like to see us get Vandy, UVa, WVU, GaTech, and either UNC, Duke , or NC State. Also, would like to get Boise State on the schedule.
As far as money games go, I like the regional lineup that we have (Clemson, Tennessee, Georgia, etc...) but how about a game with Auburn, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Miami, Florida, or Texas.

I think McDaniels covered most of them but by far the one that I would like to see us play is BOISE St. For the reason that ... they are our primary competitor for the G5 spot in the access bowl, so to not leave it to the committee to decide we need to beat them head-to-head. Love to see a home-and- home with them starting next year (2016). Getting guarantee games is easier now. I think we will still use the criteria that it should be within driving distance for the fan base.

I like a lot of your suggestions. Miami would probably be a better candidate for a home-and-home than a money game. That's actually something I'd love for App to try and make happen.

Would love to add home-and-homes vs. Marshall and/or ECU, and with Duke.

Additional games with Wake would be good. And although I know some will disagree loudly, so would additional games with UNCC.

G5 games that offer something in terms of recruiting (e.g., FIU, FAU), name recognition (some of the better MWC or AAC teams) and/or travel (UNLV).

Finally, look for opportunities for home-and-homes with out-of-state P5s.

By the time we play WFU again in 2020, we likely will be at a level where won't just beat them, we'll kick their fannies all over Winston-Salem.

Can't wait for UTenn, it'll be 15 minutes from my son's house. Just not looking forward to seeing all that Orange unless it's stained with fans' tears.

Virginia Tech. We had a great time there last time and met some good people there tailgating, but didn't have a good showing at the game. Let's go back and get some redemption.

I'm opposed to ever playing thugs (Miami) and cheats (Miami, UNC). There was a time that Marshall fit both categories. I think much of that has been cleaned up in Huntington.

Marshall, ECU, Memphis, Western Kentucky, Illinois and a home & home with any other ACC team besides Wake. The goats will NEVER do it, but would love to get NC State up in Boone.

Would like to see ECU and Marshall in the rotational and more home and home with MAC and CUSA. Eventually more home and away series with ACC.
