    November 1 start date????

    From the front page or so.....
    The NCAA Division III Management Council’s playing and practice seasons subcommittee will recommend that schools not be allowed to play games before Nov. 1. Current rules allow Division III schools to practice and play starting Oct. 15, and the council raised health and safety concerns.
    You know what this does? It pushes the end of the 17 week(?) D-III season to the end of the D-I season.

    Health and safety concerns my butt. Somebody wants to combine the championships.

    Sadly, I believe you are correct in that assessment.

      And, if they do, I'm thinking it will just be the D3 championship at the Frozen Four site. We'll see national semifinals on campus sites. They won't pay to fly four teams somewhere, and they are just trying to fill the Friday night slot.

        If they do this, the NC$$ better make sure that ESPN plays the D3 final on one of their channels. That should be part of the deal IMO.

          Working backwards
          April 11, 2014 NCAA D-III Final - Philadelphia
          April 5, 2014 NCAA D-III semifinals - campus sites
          March 31 NCAA D-III quarterfinals - campus sites
          March 24 NCAA D-III opening round - campus sites

          Skewing the season 2 weeks puts the conference tournaments around 3/17/14, so we ASSUME that Plattsburgh the NCAA will go for a 4 week tournament.

          Why? CB$ used to televise the D-II and D-III lax championships on CB$$N, but dropped them. They are now on NCAA.com just like D-III hockey is now. I see no change in the arrangement.

              Hey, I got the tweet late last night! What ticks me off is that they're using Reason X when in reality "they" want to have D-III play in the D-I sandbox.

              Edit: OMG -- D-III hoops is doing the same thing!!! http://www.ncaa.org/wps/wcm/connect/...etball+tourney (Note: it is a one-off to celebrate the 75th NCAA Hoops anniversary. But D-II / III would not play in the Georgia Dome but rather in the home of the ex Atlanta Thrashers.)

                I heard about the D-III hoops going to the D-I site at the Co-SIDA convention. There was no talk of hockey there though.

                On the women's side they are exploring a pre-determined site for the first time for Division III for the 2013 championship. Rumors have it looking like Minnesota coupled with the D1 women's FF.

                  Doesn't the NCAA have a contract with ORDA for the 2013 Lake Placid venue??

                  If the NCAA walks, then it will be the second time that ORDA has been screwed over by collegiate ice hockey. The first time was when the ECAC left LP for Albany.

                    Yes the D3 Men's FF is in Lake Placid for 2013. That's all that's been signed so far that I know of.

                    The women are looking for a predetermined site. They have no such agreement with Lake Placid that I know of. Personally I'd love to see them together.

                      You think we'd get just 6 days to arrange travel cross country? D1 has a weekend off. Yes, I realize otherwise it would be Sunday to a Thursday for D1, so that's more compressed, but not by much. Maybe the same would happen in D3...

                              Yes. This change doesn't effect that, since 2013 is this coming March. And that's the last year of the current contract.
