WTG Albany! Win is just enormous for the conference.

Understandably not a lot of talk about it, but UNH took it to Dartmouth after they beat Maine. They're deep and big.

In answer to a previous question, the Times-Union reported that Albany received about $65,000 for each game from TOSU and Washington.

Johny-come-lately...everyone has already gone to their corners and he jumps in. We get it...the Mt. Ida game SUCKS! Next year when SBU releases their schedule and some comparable BS team is on it grill them then.

Arena won't be done until Fall 2014, so we may see the same scheduling issues. However, we should have quite a few reciprocated games coming our way. I believe we'll see at least the following:

Northeastern (reciprocation from BB)
FDU (still owes us even though they dropped our away)
Rider (1:1)
Marist (1:1)
St. Francis (NY) (1:1)

In my mind, that's enough to not do the D2 thing. More than enough. With the larger and more profitable arena the season after, we may then start seeing more prestigious visitors.

Looks like SBU will have a solid home schedule for the immediate future.

With the new arena it would be great to get St John's to open it!!!!!

UVM Hoop Cat

People take me seriously Bobby because..... I'm right.

Love how you're still bringing up my comments on our 2011-12 schedule. I called UVM's schedule correct that summer and you tried (Unsuccessfully) to give me crap but you couldn't have been more wrong. Let's take a look:

# of 2011-12 NCAA Tournament schools on AE OOC schedules in 2011-12:

Vermont 5

UMBC 2
BU 2
Maine 2

Stony Brook 1
Albany 1
New Hampshire 1
Binghamton 1

Hartford 0

Those darn facts again.

Kinda hard to argue about those facts, I'd say.

My Top 5 for home opener in new arena (of course would have to agree to at least 2 years at their place)...

1) Notre Dame
2) Syracuse
3) Georgetown
4) Villanova
5) Mt Ida

[QUOTE=seawolfemeritus;6982434] The new arena still only seats 5,000, right? Syracuse would probably want at least 3 for 1 even if it seated 12,000.

Villanova and Georgetown, possible, if there's some other connection to the coaches.

Mt. Ida - is their nickname the Fighting Executioners? I see the former Mt. Ida School for Girls merged with, among others, Coyne Electrical and Technical School and the New England Institute of Funeral Service Education - they'll burn you, then bury you.
