    That "New WCHA is Dead" thread is going to be a dumpster fire by tomorrow night with all the speculation and accusations.

      The only thing I’ve learned from that thread is that a lot of WCHA fans really don’t want UAA and UAF around. Which is really insulting.

        There have always been some Johnny-come-lately BG, Tech, and Mankato fans who think our schools have bigger breeches than they really do.

        You do have to admit though, the situation with the never-ending threat of budget cuts, the big step down in the arena situation that just got announced a couple months back, etc. does not look very good for your programs. It's a dog-eat-dog world now.

          The “big step down” in the arena situation was really more of a positive move, the rent at the Sully was $25k per weekend and the arena is frankly a dump, moving on campus into a facility that was just upgraded with new facilities was better. Plus, a better atmosphere in a smaller arena would help the on ice product.

          The budget situation is something the Universities can’t control, it’s all politics.

          The real crappy part is the way things were done, seven schools just stabbed three in the back. If there were issues they could’ve been discussed and dealt with, instead they released a Friday afternoon press release and referred to an outside party to deal with it all, what a way to deal with a 25+ year partner. Now three programs are basically left to die.

          My final word is this: Cutting off the three schools isn’t gonna fix anything, it’s not gonna magically fix any budget issues you may have, it won’t fix your PWR. How long until BG and Mankato get tired of trips to the UP? They’ve already gone behind people’s back and they’ll do it to you eventually.

              Evening, Lodge. Fun day today, met up with a buddy at a local brewery (I owed him some stuff). Happened to come across a couple other beer geeks we knew.

              As for the WCHA thing...I'm saddened that the smaller schools in the WCHA (BG/MTU/NMU) are being thrown under the bus. I wouldn't be surprised if schools like Mankato/etc said, "Support us, or you could be out, too."

              Another hot one tomorrow. Then I have to figure out how to work again. 9 days off in a row is a trip, I tell ya.
              Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                Umm...BG is the largest school in the conference, and the only one who is full D1. Pretty sure they're spearheading this.

                  That thread is a true sh*show then.

                              Evening, Lodge. Stopped by the corner store today. Due to the weather (pretty big storm rolled through), from 11am-2pm, there were 3 regulars (including me) and 5 staffers (only 2 were working). It was like hanging out at someone's house. It was weird and fun. Pretty good view of the storm coming in, also, since the corner store faces west.
