cberkas Posted September 14, 2018 Author Posted September 14, 2018 4 hours ago, SiouxVolley said: With some Alabama officials open about their hockey interest ( and looking into a decent sized hockey arena), it makes sense that other SEC allies would at least be open to hockey. Alabama isn’t going to add hockey alone in the SEC and south. But this is probably middle of the next decade at least before DI hockey becomes a reality. The Alabama coach that was wanting to move to D1 is coaching in the pros only after coaching Alabama for a year. Quote

Oh, wait... You can’t lose a 3rd time to Canada but you can break students hearts when the team folds. Quote
SiouxVolley Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 The St Louis Blues new practice facility soon opens. It has three rinks, 2500 seats in the main rink, near Lindenwood U, and much of the rest of the acreage will be developed into an hundred million dollar entertainment complex. Since Lindenwood is paying rent and even contributing some $ for capital, the Lindenwood women’s team would inevitably play there. But their ACHA men’s team could go DI and get a bid from the WCHA. https://www.stltoday.com/sports/hockey/professional/a-pinch-yourself-moment-for-blues-their-new-practice-home/article_950c41af-1f9d-5362-8e83-ea3c99ba9ad4.amp.html Quote

SiouxVolley Posted September 20, 2018 Posted September 20, 2018 Middle Tennessee St and a number of other southeastern schools are moving up to ACHA DII. https://rutherfordsource.com/mtsu-hockey-joins-southeastern-collegiate-hockey-conference/ MTSU and Vanderbilt play at the Predators practice faculty, Ford Ice Center. That center has limited seating at its two rinks (<500 at each), so they would have to play elsewhere if they want to go varsity. https://www.nhl.com/predators/fordicecenter 2 Quote

SiouxVolley Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 An article in the NIU student paper imploring them to start hockey. NIU historically has had really bad men’s basketball, so hockey may have a chance. But the nearest decent sized rink is in the next county (Kane) over where the Chicago Steel USHL teams plays. https://northernstar.info/sports/illinois-lacks-division-i-hockey/article_fc47c53c-ccee-11e8-89e7-d35ebbc1445b.html Quote
