I,  for one, don't like change and would hate to see the ECAC change.  I
especially like the fact that the ECAC has such an even schedule with
each team playing each other team twice (home and away).  I also like
the travel partner aspect of the schedule.

I really wouldn't mind seeing UVM leave, I've always though they'd be a better
fit for HEA anyway, being a state public university ala UNH, Maine, UMass, and
Lowell.

And if they do leave, I think it's likely the ECAC would replace them with a
12th team to keep the travel partner system intact. Holy Cross, Quinnipiac,
Army, or even UConn would make decent replacements. Or even a revived Penn team
(though that's obviously a long shot).
