Not sure if you are "beetching" or just noting that there will be "beetching" by others.
Regardless, I think this is great.......great for college hockey and potential schools that may consider adding a DI program and great for UAH.
Fans of the Big 4 conferences are routinley blasting the CHA and yet, there teams prove to be competitive with many of the teams in your "elite" conferences.
Yes, I am a UAH alum and former player from back in the initial run at DI so perhaps biased. However, they have earned their right to a bid to the tourney and Bemidji clearly deserves an at large bid.
For those "elitist" Big Four fans.... one of your teams will now be bumped out of the tourney which I am sure is a hard pill to swallow, but not to worry, the "elitist" approach to denying UAH a conference and the pressures that have caused the CHA to be no longer mean this will be the last year that this can happen. Hey, if your lucky...... that mindset may just result in some teams folding and then the tourney can go back to just twelve teams...... then there will be even more "beetching"!!!
Go Chargers!!!
