    Re: Realignment Rumors

    If this was to happen; Which league would be the WCHA, new six team league or the left overs.

    Wouldnt that mean the Commish of the WCHA would be leaving since he is based out of Denver?

    Where would the McNaughton Cup go? What about MTU and UMD? These teams should be invited to the new league.

These programs are very recent (much more recent than Maine, which started making the NCAA's in '87 and won their first champ in '93) in their rise to prominence.

        You seem incredulous about charging for club hockey. It's not that shocking. I went to UIUC and I had season tickets for the club team. They were $40. But it's not weird or abnormal for club teams to charge.
        My point is they charge, sellout and all because they WIN. I've seen plenty of club teams not charge because they can't as almost no one shows up anyway. Winning puts people in the seats.

          Anything is possible, both that does not mean it's likely. It would to mean that Miami and ND are getting beat by other (weaker) school the rest of the season. This is an empirical fact, the departure of UM and MSU makes the path to winning the CCHA easier for any team, but the heir apparents right now are MU and ND.

          I don't like this any more than you do, I am a proud Lake State Alum who attended during their golden era (89-93).
          Arenas I have been to in (chronological order):

          Munn Arena: Michigan State
          Norris Center/Abel Arena: Lake Superior
          MacInnes Arena: Mich Tech
          Yost Arena: U-Mich
          Lakeview Arena: Nothern Mich
          Ewigleben Arena: Ferris State
          Lawson Arena: Western Mich.

            Right now they are premier programs. The 90's are over. I am not a Miami fan, I am a realist.

              What are the odds that all these realignment rumors will turn out exactly the college football realignment of a year ago?

              Somehow I feel like that will happen.

                  Let's not be silly here.

                  They have premier money.

                      Miami is a nice program. Let's not lose focus of what "premier" means....

                        And that is exactly what we are hearing here about certain schools! It HAZ to be true!

                        I am very skeptical at this point.
