I remember a DMN article that said we should setup a local DFW tourney during out of conference between UNT,TCU and UTA. I rather us think larger than that. I think keeping TCU would be good especially if we an keep the football rivalry going, and adding UTA once in a while would be good as well. I hope in our OOC, we can schedule some big top 100 RPI schools.
I would much rather play UNT or UTA in a Metroplex Mayors' Trophy Tourney than #326 UCSB or #327 Delaware State as part of our non-conference slate. Only problem is that we might have to forego the annual TCU game and there would always be the possibility one of us might not reach the finals of a 2 round tourney. I doubt they would want to set up that tourney as a 3 game round robin event
We could have an annual Little Five with SMU, TCU, North Texas State, Texas-Arlington, and our favorite Dallas Christian!
