To answer your question about the B1G, yes, unless one of the other schools adds a D1 program (not likely in the near future). Closest would probably be Indiana, Illinois and Rutgers (all of which have club teams), but that is a huge investment for an athletics program to make. PSU only did it because the Sabres' owner threw a shit ton of cash at them and told them to build a program.Sonofanump;1529180 wrote:Is the B1G going to remain at only 6 teams?
Still don't get why the MAC (3) & GLIAC (3) don't form a conference together and interplay with the B1G schools.
Now, that said, the B1G could add an affiliate program - they added Johns Hopkins as an affiliate for lacrosse - but it's pretty unlikely.
