Otherwise, he should be fired.
In fairness, Tholmoe did say that the bigs didnt want to play us...it wasn't that easy to get home and homes with them.

Someone made the point of playing a lot of 2 for 1 deals, but that would not support the economics of our business model. Our home games are crucial if we are to stay profitable.

From a business perspective, it is better to schedule crappy teams and have winning seasons as opposed to schedule tough teams and have losing seasons....because after the one or two marquee OOC game, you need everyone to come to the crappy freaking mid major lower tier, lower quality crapfest that is the MWC. People are more apt to come to a home game vs UNLV if we are 8-1 than if we are 4-5.
