    Articles on Scheduling 12 Games and Conference Changes for NEC

    A bit more information on the two new members being added next year to the NEC.  The schedule must be a problem because we only have dates for the OOC games and a couple NEC games so far.

    Evidently both Merrimack and LIU will be playing the NEC but only LIU eligible for the championship.

    I don't see adding Merrimack as a plus for Duquesne as they have 2 less chances to schedule games against teams like New Hampshire, UMASS, Youngstown, Hawaii and West By God Virginia.

    I'd rather play a real rival school from the A 10 such as Rhode Island, Fordham, or Richmond and a yearly big challenge for the financial and recruiting return.

    Another decent article on having 12 games next year -
