I didn't realize I would start such a debate on my UST going D2 question. A lot of people raised a lot of good points that I hadn't thought of.

Separately, I'm flipping channels and just caught UWEC vs. UW-Oshkosh on FSN. Is FSN now airing not-live D3 games? Is this new? Kinda cool (even though it's WIAC...)

Long-time reader, infrequent poster (or something like that...)

Maybe Caruso makes the D2 jump in 3-5 year when......UST jumps to D2. Let's be real, the school has 6,000+ undergrads and almost 11,000 in total including its (terribly profitable) graduate programs. UST's goal is to be the second biggest/most relevant/highest rated/well endowed school in the state behind the U. Do they plan to do that at the D3 level? My guess is no.

Does St. Thomas plan to give up hockey? There's no D2 hockey and I think D1 hockey may be unreasonable.

Good point on the hockey. Not sure about that.

If they went to 10K undergrads, would the MIAC push for them to leave? Hard to imagine they would as I'm sure the interest and cash would be good for the conference. For the other schools, maybe not as much.

And who know, if this economy double-dips, maybe all private D3 schools will have a harder time getting any enrollment growth.

Not sure if the comment about new BU posters coming out of the woodwork was directed at me for giving the score of the BU/Aug game since no one else had.

My only comment about Saturday's game is this.  Bethel will be be lucky to lose by less than 10.  They are like the Vikes in that they never win the ones that matter.

Royals leads Auggies 35-0 with 5 min to go in the first half last I heard.
