So, now that Arizona State is joining the NCHC... what's the next domino to fall?
Do the NCHC and CCHA sit on 9 teams? Is the B1G holding it's breath for Illinois to get off their duffs -- and moving to 8?
I just mentioned on Twitter that the NCHC and CCHA are in a position to help the Alaska schools with a resurrection of the Mason Compromise.
Also know Omaha fans are disappointed to be podded with WMU and Miami (OF OHIO).
But... it's a fit three ways:
1. Geography -- like when paired with UAF in the CCHA, Omaha is the closest school on the map.
2. Old CCHA Ties -- we have a history with them. Let's rekindle.
3. Big Picture / Long Game -- worst kept secret is that Miami (OF OHIO) wants out. If that happens AND ONLY THAT happens... Lindenwood fits. If Miami (OF OHIO) bolts and the Broncos follow them. Omaha falls into a pod with the replacements -- two of: Mankato, St. Thomas, Augustana, Lindenwood. I don't mind any of that.
