Re: ECAC Northeast/NE10
For the NCAA, the philosophy is that "one size fits all sports."
Jerry, I wasn't advocating letting them into the NE playoffs, just let them in the NE on the same basis as the pair of Saints is currently in the ECAC East. The NE didn't allow that, which is one of the reasons that the whole division is hanging by a thread.
The NCAA takes a dim view of any single sport exemptions.
As far as allowing them into the ECAC-NE tournament, that would only accomplish not havingan AQ for the ECAC-NE (NCAA rule, not ECAC).
