If HC did not step up to the plate with some serious financial backing for both the men's and women's programs then it would seem obvious that we are not going anywhere. It just boggles my mind that all these other programs are going public with what they are willing to do if accepted and all we get out of HC, at least publicly, is that HC will commit the resources but will not give scholarships. Where is the announcement that we will at least improve upon the rink in Hart to some degree...or anything that seems outwardly competitive with what some of the other, much poorer schools are promising.

That being said, I would hope that the ECAC committee members would see beyond QU's "we'll build it someday" ice-rink and Sacred Heart's $12 million dollar rink...but our problem is not QU nor is it Sacred Heart, it is Niagra, which has and continues to put money into its scholarship program and Mercyhurst, which does the same.

Let's just hope that Regan can and did back up his commitment to keep Coach Pearl and really upgrade HC hockey.

So much of this is speculation, but what else can be expected when our people on the hill are so tight-lipped....to a fault.

Cheers.

could not agree more, HC 1843 -- they can't even upgrade our pathetic web site let alone make a serious play to have at least one sport competitive on the national level -- hopefully we'll get the invite despite ourselves
