Let me see now...UNC, Butler, Kansas, UConn, Villanova, VCU, Pitt, Marquette, Texas, West Virginia, Ohio State... WAIT A MINUTE, we HAVE played all of these guys during these past 6 years of Pearl's tenure!
One thing that helped elevate our program under Pearl was his willingness to play one of the toughest nonconference schedules in the nation every year. I know we will likely be going through some tough times early with Martin, but hopefully, he will build us up in short order and we can continue to play these marquee matchups that have spoilt us over the past 6 years.
