Why all the talk? There's talk again of the ivie's leaving, and a new
President, New AD, and New Coach might have something to do with it.

What's with all this nonsense we've seen over the past year about Vermont
leaving the ECAC for Hockey East.  It's ridiculous.  They have no intent of
going anywhere.  Fine, it's geographically closer.  But if they can't even
stay at the top of the pack of the *mostly* need-based ECAC how could they
ever compete in Hockey-East.  It's not like they don't already give out
scholarships - though it's not a full set.
