Re: New WCHA is dead
Yeah I don’t get that begging to get nonconference games thing. In the last few years, Lake State has hosted teams that could have easily said no to traveling to the Soo like Denver, Michigan, Michigan State, and Arizona State. Notre Dame is also expected to come up, too.⚓

Michigan Coach: That sounds intriguing, but don't they play in the CCHA?
Michigan AD: Oh yeah. [/deletes e-mail]

Re: New WCHA is dead
With St Thomas in Minnesota possibly going D1 in all other sports, I believe they would have to go D1 in hockey as well. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that's the rule.
If that is the case, it'd be pretty logical for them to join the CCHA? Also would give the league 8 teams to balance out the schedule. Has anyone heard any rumors about their hockey program? The article below said they'd look at the WCHA but obviously that league will either no longer exist or morph significantly, they'd end up in the CCHA.
Even with the Summit invitation, St. Thomas still needs another home for football and hockey, which are not sponsored by the Summit League. While hockey has looked at the Western Collegiate Hockey Association, football has requested membership in the FCS Pioneer Football League, commissioner Patty Viverito said.

Originally posted by RaceBoarder View PostUnless there is some massive, catastrophic, yet to be seen flaw with St. Thomas, they will have an open invitation to come to the CCHA. The only wrench in those works would be the rumored (but at this time unlikely) swap of Mankato and Bemidji for Western and Miami.
Miami wants to move, WMU doesn’t.
Assumptions:
CCHA would take the MAC schools.
BSU would probably like to switch.
Facts:
MnState has tried to move and has been rejected by NCHC.
No other interest or lack thereof has been made public.If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me
BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!
At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

I'd also like to see Central get a team. It would be a nice GLIAC-MACtion balance. But I haven't heard any rumours out of Mt. Pleasant so that's a pipe dream.

Re: New WCHA is dead
Schools on the radar in the region:
MAC:
Kent State (had a team, dropped it, probably won’t come back short of replacing their insufficient rink)
Ohio (see: Kent State)
Never heard any actual rumors about EMU, CMU, NIU, Buffalo, etc outside of baseless fanboy speculation on here.
Horizon League:
Oakland U (participated in feasibility study, “passed with flying colors”)
UIC (had team, dropped it, has a good arena, but supposedly doesn’t have ice making capability anymore)
GLIAC:
Wayne State (see: Kent State, but with even fewer fans and no actual rink)
Nobody in any serious capacity AFAIK
Also… no more D-II play ups unless the NCAA reclassifies hockey like they did with the women’s side.If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me
