Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 2596742, member: 1023"] I don’t think Holy Cross is a great fit either. But I’ve heard that QU isn’t interested. They like the ECAC and sort of like the mule entered in the Kentucky Derby they appreciate being associated with schools like Yale, Harvard and the others. I guess the HE leadership would love URI to be #12. They really wanted UConn too but Rhody is not even considering a program despite the fact that he Atlantic would take them in a heartbeat. And I think Hockey East would give them 5-6 years to develop there. I’ve also heard that Hockey East is really hung up on staying in New England exclusively at this point which adds to RPI’s difficulty in gaining acceptance. I’m guessing if QU stands pat, URI doesn’t take a step that eventually they will settle on Holy Cross to get to 12. [/QUOTE]
