... reducing the quality of our non-conference opponents....

Replacing Kentucky with Cal is a huge downgrade.

Our non-conf schedule opponents include Arizona (Intuit Dome), Gonzaga (Seattle), and Cal (San Francisco)?? If you wish to stay in West during the non-conf season, you have a huge drop-off in the quality of west coast schools after Arizona and Gonzaga.
