  • Any chance the Penn State scandal has an impact on hockey?

    A writer for the USA Today gave the opinion that Penn State football should be shut down for an entire season. What if more is uncovered in the next year regarding the athletics department as a whole and worst case scenario Penn State athletics entire program gets put on hold?

    No Penn State Hockey ---> No Big Ten Conference ---> Michigan, MSU OSU return to the CCHA ---> CCHA reforms and the nWCHA teams go back to the CCHA ---> Notre Dame pulls out of Hockey East ---> Left with an odd number of teams, Hockey East dumps U-Conn ---> WI and Minn return to the WCHA ---> Etc, Etc,... End Result Jo Pa saved college hockey as it exists today and UAH is still screwed.

    Stranger things have happened... and it's Friday the 13th. Feel free to share your outside the box possible scanarios

    The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

            The only impact it may have is if people are reluctant to send their children to school there.

              Maybe potential recruits deciding to go somewhere else until the smoke clears.

                    The program will still exist but they may have a harder time getting recruits who don't want to be associated with the school and I think that will be true for all sports at Penn State.

                      If they death penalty the football program, it may have an impact on the funding of the hockey program, but it won't lead to the axing of the hockey program. Just means they'll probably suck for longer.

                        With how young you have to start scouting these days, the coaches probably shouldn't wear any PSU gear on their trips.

                          Don't worry on the funding for the Hockey Program...Pengula,who donated to the arena will be right there if they need money to proceed...and sorry if I butchered the donors name.

                            I expect nothing less from someone who's probably also a Bruins fan to get the name of the owner of the Sabres wrong... Pegula.

                              The only thing less likely than Penn St. shutting down their athletic program is for Michigan Tech fans to stop whining about the BTHC and NCHC.
