The SJU home schedule is excellent this year. I'll be subscribing again and up at 4am on a Sunday for these games.

I don't understand why we host BU, GAC and Concordia this year and were on the road with them last year. Figure out a way to make a schedule where the top 5 teams play 2 on the road and 2 at home against each other each season.

Conference offices tend to not like to get involved in that sort of thing, and set master schedules via random draw.

Will be interesting to see what this means for Drake/Walker and UST/Caruso. Walker was making real inroads recruiting in the Twin Cities. I'm sure that will remain an area of opportunity for him at Drake. Also probably a benefit for Bethel, SJU, and top 3rd of the MIAC. An ascendent UWRF, with tuition reciprocity, was a tough recruiting battle.

Winners would seem to be Bethel, SJU, Drake, UWP, UWL ... losers are UWRF (not wishing them ill, just think they take a clear step back post Blaha/Walker) and potentially UST.

We get a home night game against Hamline, which I appreciate, as I have a club launch scheduled that day as well.

This MIAC charging PPV for conference basketball playoffs....also women's basketball, and men's and women's hockey playoff streams are also PPV.  Johnnies and Bennies have teams in 3 out of 4 of the playoff tournaments.

$10 per game...$25 for all games.
