      Wow, UNH being compared to Quinnipiac; that is quite the complement.

        You're right, Bentley is clearly the better choice.

The hodge podge of being in multiple conferences creates issues. Look at the TV situation. The Big Ten has it's own network and yet won't be able to broadcast some of it's own conference games on it. Not the end of the world, but it's a complication and a little ridiculous to people outside your sphere.

              You don't think the Big Ten makes sense, yet your university clearly thinks it makes the most sense for hockey. The ACC appears to make the most sense for basketball, lacrosse, etc... And of course football independence.

              If we had to nail down one conference for all sports, including football (bear with the hypothetical for a moment without your head exploding), which conference would that be? The ACC? For football? For hockey? The SEC? Other? For hockey? No other major conference is involved in hockey. How about geographically? How do the ACC or SEC make more sense than the B1G? I would be stunned if you truely thought either of these conferences were a better fit for all sports.

              Look, I am not a huge college football or basketball guy. I don't care enough to debate this that seriously. And you are entitled to your opinion and I know you guys have strong feelings about conference affiliation with football. But I whole heartedly disagree with you that the B1G wouldn't be the most natural fit for all sports.

              Why do some people think that ND cares what fans of other schools think about their conference (or independence) choices?

              Would your school care that ND fans thought about its choice? That is for each school to decide according to its requirements, opportunities and means.

              ND fans do not want football in any conference and don't want to be stuck in a Midwest conference for football, basketball baseball lacrosse and and Olympic sports.

              Independence makes the most sense for football, the ACC for all other sports. I would have personally preferred that ND stay in Hockey East than move to the **** Big Ten.

                I wonder about cherry picking Canada for the next B1G team. Say you could get a U of Toronto to be a competitive school in the B1G...you think canadian recruiting and televised B1G games in Canada would skyrocket (relative to adding ASU).

                      The last time that the BTHC was "hypothetical", it was still 2010. So no. Certainly not recently.

                        Well, yeah that and it was a 0% chance until it was a 100% chance. It wasn't going to happen until it did happen, then it was inevitable.

                              I think we all knew (or should have known) that the BTHC was inevitable after Penn State, and before then we knew it would be if a sixth team ever came along. That was always the rub.

                                Based on goaltending and the losses suffered this year, Notre Dame could very well win the conference in their last year.
