Illinois to D1

Re: Illinois to D1

The same. They have a pretty well-organized club system on campus and student support of the team is pretty high. I would like it if they went D1.

I remember watching a Cornell-Harvard game this year on the WatchESPN app...and the other hockey game streaming that day was a club game at Liberty. (I think they were playing West Virginia.) It was interesting.

I know LU vs Virginia Tech streamed on the ESPN app (nearly had a heart attack when I saw that was an option). I've never been to Liberty, but I know a few LU grads and a member of their hockey team. I hope they make the jump and I hope Navy does too.

Liberty's rink is unusual.

what wizardry do you do to post a picture on this forum?
 
Re: Illinois to D1

I watched the Navy and Liberty game on espn3 and the place was packed...they would support the team better than some of the recent national champs!
 
Re: Illinois to D1

Oh, gotcha. I've tried to use the image insert button on here before and it did not work. Thank you!
This is mostly educated guessing on my part, but:

Yeah, board effectively disabled the function of that button a while back. Probably due to a certain mostly NSFW thread that we shant mention, but I don't know the full story about it.

In either case, USCHO doesn't own the overall software for the board, so I don't think they can change too much about the UI for typing posts, but they can add filters to modify whatever gets inserted using the IMG tags.

I've been a forum admin for 13 years, and I'm stunned that USCHO allows HTML but not IMG.

People were posting images that caused Google Adsense to suspend payments to our advertising account costing us thousands of dollars. We were threatened with permanent suspension if it happened again. You'd be more stunned if we had to shut down operations after losing a large share of our revenue.

Oh, I get disallowing IMG, Ed. I totally get it. I'm just surprised that you allow HTML, especially given all the nasty injections that can come through it. vB is pretty decent with that, but that's still asking a lot.

All because someone was posting ponies?? Why does Google hate ponies?
 
I think Illinois has a fervent enough fan base for college hockey. I mean, their colors are blue and orange, and their former governors wear orange all the time. That sounds like dedication to me.
