Ok let's say they survive until 2020. Then what? If the MAC is willing to take them back then they should go back. I don't understand why this is any different than Idaho.

They are better positioned to survive until 2020 than Idaho ... a lot more G5 schools willing to schedule a h/h trip to Western Mass, and they can trade off BBall games that appeal to some G5 schools.

Georgia scheduled a football game with us for a tradeoff of basketball games.

Also I feel that both BC and UCONN have bought into wanting to have a third team in the region. That can only help.
