Under the hockey counterproposal, the 5-year clock begins the academic year following a player's 19th birthday or initial college enrollment. Whichever comes first.
Huge win for college hockey. The commissioners worked extremely hard on pushing this proposal.
@NESCACicehockey Move D1 basketball & top football to NBA/NFL with games at some very cool college venues. Then put the “collegiate” back in NCAA. Or DIII drops NCAA & goes it alone for scholar-athletes.
@NESCACicehockey Maybe time for Football DI FBS & basketball jump to NFL & NBA with cool college venues & have NCAA put the “collegiate “ back in the “C”.
What Coach Mason, Coach Mullane, & the multiple assistants they have worked with during their tenure have built something special against some real headwinds.
Keep it rollin’ PBears. New season starts now.

@Sean3Walsh DIII is college athletics not pro sports with a building marked “library “. Watch @NESCACicehockey any night & you’ll see top athletes at top facilities & a future.
@NESCACicehockey The quality of DIII MIH has increased so much that video replay has to become part of the regular season. Just like the days when even DI had 2 on-ice officials, change is good.
@TomCaron Poor Development planning. An NCAA game is a great way to raise alumni & local business funds. If it’s local-ish. Ticket revenues are chump change. Ask Beanpot schools what they raise.
Hamilton takes a bit of a tumble is the latest USCHO poll, falling from # 3 to # 6 as does Bowdoin (falling from # 9 to # 11). Both Middlebury and Williams pick up a handful of votes
All extraordinary players & every one has a coach behind them. @GoUBears doesn’t have a single high-scorer, but is potent with 4 players at the top.

@DIIIHockeyNews Good example of small-minded lack of communicators. Live stream attracts donors. P*ss of a few of those & the infinitesimal revenue so not worth it.
