Having researched the available financial statements for every DI program since 2009 I can state that reported contributions have come nowhere near the cost of running a program for a single season. In looking at UAH and RMU it does appear that they are trying to change that dynamic:

Well, Alaska did with BU after BU had announced that they were hosting the Nanooks for a 2 game series. And staying with BU, back in the summer of 2014 Army backed out of a game with BU, which Coach Quin was unable to replace with another DI team so he ended up scheduling the U.S. World Junior team....Leave a comment:

But it was more than just playing the games, it was travel on commercial flights and staying at hotels as well. Each school made its own decisions last season, but I stand by my opinion that last season should not be used as a factor in scheduling league games this season.

Forcing schools to have unbalanced home/away schedules this season because of not playing a full league schedule during a pandemic is a bush league move.

No, I understood your post, but I only responded to your first sentence that "Breach of Contract is only one possible claim" to point out RMU didn't breach any contracts. I said nothing about your further statements regarding fraud. However, from what I have read the threat of a lawsuit is...Leave a comment:

I don't think there is anyway Air Force hosts Sacred Heart 4 times as they should be home and home series. I also don't think 4 games in 5 days, including the Monday and Tuesday before Thanksgiving. My guess is that the 11/22-23 games are 10/22-23 games and at Sacred Heart.
That would leave...Leave a comment:

RMU didn't breach their contracts with the scholarship athletes. RMU said they would honor those scholarships for up to four years and an athletic scholarship is not a guarentee of playing time.

RIT released their schedule today, so Atlantic Hockey has already rescheduled a 26-game league schedule without RMU. And RIT has replaced the RMU games with OOC games, while SHU looks like it only has one open date.

I assume it's a simple error and one of the four single series on the road will be corrected to be RIT home games. I've seen it in the past where both teams have posted the same game vs each other as a road game at first. The team that had the wrong location later updated their schedule with it as a...Leave a comment:

A 26 game league schedule in a spreadout league like Atlantic Hockey makes an unbalanced home-away split of 12-14 (or 14-12) for each team. However, Iooking at RIT's schedule I see they currently have a 10-16 unbalanced schedule, which I think must be a mistake and I would expect one of the 5 single...Leave a comment:

Or maybe Atlantic Hockey will play fewer league games. One option would be to play each of the other 9 teams 3 times for a 27 game league schedule. Another option would be to create two pods of five and play the four teams in your pod 4x each (16 games) and the five teams in the other pod 2x each (10...Leave a comment:
