College Hockey‏ @USCollegeHockey 5h5 hours ago BREAKING: Illinois next ACHA team to go D1? Univ.'s Master Plan includes new ice arena adjacent to football stadium: Scott Powers‏ @ByScottPowers 5h5 hours ago Scott Powers Retweeted College Hockey Been working on a story about the state's possibility of getting a D-I team. Multiple sources said the Illini are best bet at this point. http://www.news-gazette.com/news/local/2017-04-12/thinking-ahead-ui-unveils-draft-campus-master-plan.html I didn't get much out of it other then a plan to move the Ice Arena. Time to wait and see.

No he didn't. Brice Burge‏ @THATBriceBurge 34m34 minutes ago Replying to @Hawks_Report boutique was used in initial exchange. So, I went to the original posting of the letter on here and didn't see "boutique" in it. Are people just making up !@#$ to meet their narrative?

We all know if they were good enough to play at UND, Idalski would take Euros first.

That's more like what the twins would say.

The women's team has a bigger following too.

They got $200,000 to $300,000 in their case. I didn't look to see if that is per player, but they did deserve it compared to the US men's team.

Playing basketball ball and Prince cooking pancakes after.

Gerard Gallant to be the Vegas Golden Knights head coach.

RIP Charlie Murphy. (Yes, I know that's not Charlie Murphy)

They're grasping at something. I don't see what their claim is in their reply to Kennedy's letter. It's hard to support/agree with someone when the thing they are upset about isn't there. I'd like to hear their plain on how to fund the women's hockey team. They have some free time and $70.000 each now, this feels like there will be more coming.

That would make a lot of sense.

Yeah, or when was he sexiest in his reply to them on keeping the team?

They posted a Facebook post reply to Kennedy's letter to them.

Yeah, the other ones.

The B1G has been putting women's hockey on BTN so more money for UND to try and get out of them. I heard the extra $2 million isn't true.

Unless the B1G gives out $100 million to members to start a program it's not happening with B1G money.

The twins are at it again.

I hope St. Louis wins the lawsuit.

The schools without hockey would just use the money for their other sports, and all but 2 need a major donation like Penn State.

Because if UND was getting BTN money they would be able to keep the women's team and not cut any sports.

Any money that B1G schools get from the B1G is going to existing sports and facility upgrades. Nebraska still needs to payoff their new arena. Unless a school in the B1G gets a big donation they are not adding hockey. UND just cut women's hockey that should tell you they are not joining the B1G. A school that want in the B1G is UConn.

If you are going to do a showcase, do it with 4 teams from two different leagues and do it in places like Winnipeg. So 4 NCHC teams and 4 WCHA teams and have 4 games a day (Friday and Saturday). If UND want to play Bemidji every year then add in Mankato. One game in Bemidji (Friday) then in Mankato (Saturday). Then you. An get in two other WCHA team like Michigan Tech (Friday) then Northern Michigan (Saturday).

Minnesota fans are not showing up because they don't want to be in the B1G for hockey, and North Dakota isn't going to change that. The only positive of joining the B1G for hockey is to get BTN money and they will say that UND has their Midco deal and we won't share any BTN money.

None of the current B1G members want to add hockey, the only exception is a guy who use to be the general manager of Rutgers hockey team.

Reusse was talking about how Rutgers should be kicked out for not wanting to travel it Minnesota last weekend(?) because of a storm out East. It sounded like they all don't care for Rutgers being in the B1G I've heard Rutgers called the B1G's FCS team.
