That is disappointing.

Where is the incentive to win the regular season?

Definitely a bummer that we only had 5 home games this year…was hoping we’d host the playoffs to get some extra games.
Tubby: 3 national titles, one won on the field, all D2
Keeler: 3 national titles, all won on the field, one as a player, two as a coach, 1 D2, 2 FCS
Carty: 2 on-field national titles, one as a player, one as an OC, both FCS

Carty - get an FBS bowl win!

Thought the tourney would be at the home of the regular season champ. This sucks. I guess the CAA isn’t going to allow any favors for outgoing UD.

True. They have made big comebacks in each of our last few games.

Good seeing you…small world that you knew my neighbor.

Next time come hungry. :D

Well, at least we can be named the regular season champion, and play for the tourney championship.

JMU was not afforded that in their exit.

But, agreed, I was hoping that we could host. Let's just win the whole damned thing.

I thought the game changed at face offs. UD dominated in the first half but it flipped in the second half. 37 Morris? did the best but they rotated two other guys in. Wonder if it was an injury or he was in the doghouse…

Our starter had 3 face off violations. Any more violations would have resulted in a penalty and us being a man down. Thus, we had to switch up our face off guy.

That seems like a reasonable solution. They have only six current members, and our addition would certainly strengthen them. Their top three, St. Joe's, UMass would be good opponents. The worst member, St. Bonaventure, is somewhat better than the CAA clunker, Hampton.

There would still be (I would hope), OOC opportunities with Towson, Drexel, Hofstra. Or, forget Hofstra (and Stony Brook) and totally avoid travel to Long Island. I would call that a "plus"!

edit: No disrespect intended to our best lax poster!

10Stone5 has been following the Hens for years on that thread. A10 does make the most realistic sense.

I wonder if Towson is that much better. We will see.
