Now that the recruiting season is ovah (I know it nevah really is), just curious if anyone has heard anything on future schedules? It seems that we are all set though 2021 though any reference of future schedules beyond 2019 have been removed from the HC official site. fbschedules.com/ncaa/holy-cross/Anybody hear of anything different for 2020 or 2021 or schedules beyond that?

Is this 100% confirmed? Not posted on the site yet. Also interesting to note that Army will play UMASS for 6 straight years. Army-Navy game for 2023 also listed for Annapolis, MD. That must be a mistake?

That must be a mistake? Army Navy Annapolis almost certainly means a game either in Baltimore or Greater DC, not in Annapolis. A new stadium for the Redskins is still up in the air.

Thanks -- figured that listing was either an error or just that site was undecided but that Navy will be the designated home team. I'm guessing Army-Navy hasn't been played on a campus site since WWII.

What a disgrace that Snyder is apparently blaming his stadium for his years of ineptitude running the team.

Future Army-Navy Games 2019= Philadelphia 2020= Philadelphia 2021= E Rutherford NJ 2022= Philadelphia The overwhelming majority of games have been in Philadelphia @ JFK, Franklin Field, Veterans Stadium, Lincoln Financial

That must be a mistake? The UMass-Army is actually a 10 year series. The URI coach tweeted about lossing recruits to UMass and sked for a game. Game has been scheduled. Had hope you guys would have shown the same interest, especially with your new IPF and upgrades. This link goes out to 2028: link

HC is all set through 2021 (from what I can gather anyway)....I could see a game with UMass somewhere between 2022-2028.
UMass being an Indy...they are going to need games etc.

This gets me to thinking, who would be interested in the following league:
UMaine UNH Vermont Boston University Northeastern Rhode Island UMass Holy Cross Fordham UConn
Would love to entice Army into the league as well but might be tough to entice them to join for football. 7 teams for FCS Football. UMAss and UConn would have to drop down but how long can they tread water?
10 teams for hoops and other sports with a real commitment to being an outstanding league.
Next candidates for admission, perhaps Albany and then Bryant. I would imagine that they would both want in.
Effectively the old Yankee Conference. Call it the American Revolution Conference. Generate some old New England rivalries, less travel time and less expense, hopefully more student and local fan excitement with many weekend doubleheaders at selected arenas.
Who's in?

No chance whatever of Fordham joining this conference

Holy Cross is the small school outlier, and at a financial disadvantage to schools with 3x, 5x, even 7x the enrollment.

Sorry, American Revolution Conference strongly implies war and violence. Totally unacceptable. Why not just the Yankee Conference.
Why Fordham when every other team is from the New England states? Don't even invite them! I assume because of football. If basketball is your focus, then Fairfield which is in Connecticut.

As others have noted, UMass, UConn and Fordham are almost certainly No's. Army is an absolute No. URI, UNH and Maine would also probably not be willing to give up the CAA. BU, Northeastern and Vermont don't play football anymore. And Bryant!?! Puh-leeze! Why not add Quinnipiac, Central Connecticut State and Sacred Heart while we're at it!?! The only thing this list has going for it is its New England focus...and that's not necessarily an actual positive when all is said and done With all its warts, I'll take the PL over this assortment any day of the week.

I think something that has a much greater chance of happening is the PL expands to twelve by adding Fairfield and Fordham comes back as a full-time member. I think the former would jump at the chance and the latter has to be wondering if the A10 is the right league for them. I thought about it a few weeks ago and there is a lot of chatter about the idea on the Fairfield board over the last few days. Most of the opinions expressed are strongly in favor of it. Some people at Fordham have to be getting tired of the disastrous seasons in men's hoop, year after year. It would bring a couple of Jesuit schools into the mix and reduce travel expenses and missed class time for student athletes. Plus it would bring back a couple of old rivals on the hoop side.

Is Fairfield by any chance thinking of bringing back football? Wish they had never dropped it. They’d be a PERFECT fit for PL if they sponsored today. When I was at HC, one of my best friends from home in the Bronx was at Fairfield. I used to visit theee once a semester and I remember even as late as our senior year, the lacrosse field still had the football hashes on it. FU was a perennial winner in the MAAC - they pulled the plug too soon IMO.
