RE: Four college hockey feasibility studies underway

Apparently they are looking into it and that is probably only happening if someone is funding the feasibility study. The Penguins apparently would like Pitt in PPG, at least for some games, and that is sported by this Hockey News article: http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/articl...inois-pitt
It is very unlikely Pitt would add it unless there is substantial new money coming from somewhere outside of the school to get it off the ground, otherwise it doesn't make sense for a myriad of reasons from $ to Title IX, to Pitt's primary athletic conference.
An ACC/MAC league is just waiting to happen if Pitt and Syracuse start a program:
Notre Dame
Pitt
Syracuse
Boston College
Oakland
WMU
Miami
Bowling Green
Realize the BC would oppose this unless they got more Hockey East opponents, but an ACC Network could use pregramming.
