The Tommies likely have more money at their disposal than any other team in their conference should they choose to steer it to hockey. I would guess they committed to build a rink as soon as it was feasible. I'm not aware of any special arrangements that were made for them to join. It's a hockey crazy state and they're a private school with wealthy alumni and a tradition of successful hockey at lower levels. It shouldn't be any great challenge for them to get a facility funded and built when they find the right solution/location.

I am not aware of any penalties. Probably the fact St. Thomas fits the CCHA footprint and giving the CCHA a foothold in a major media market, MSP. St. Thomas alums are passionate about their athletic teams and many have some deep pockets. The sports segments in the Twin Cities, from a college standpoint, feature the Goofers and then the Tommies. All other D-II and D-III schools, tend to be an after thought.

Originally posted by JohnsonsJerseys View PostI completely agree and being located in MN, their men's hockey team will the be the signature program of their new D-I athletic department. If the men's hockey team and any other St Thomas athletic team hold their hands out to boosters and alumni at the same time, I would guess as many as 7 or 8 out of every $10 donated will land in the hockey hand.

While they’ve readily acknowledged they need to upgrade where they play hockey, keep in mind the reason they jumped to division 1 and were kicked out sof their league was football. I think it will be a 1a &1b situation with hockey & football where hockey has more need for the money

Lindenwood's AD appeared on this podcast: https://www.extrapointsmb.com/linden...e-realignment/ to discuss the school's move to D-I generally.
In it they discussed the status of men's hockey. Essentially, they had hoped to get it done in 2021 but the fundraising didn't get where they wanted. Moving to D-I in all sports changes the monetary calculations a bit, so they need to regroup, and nothing is imminent. It remains on their radar and they think college hockey could succeed in St. Louis.
