Re: 2024 Season

If Army and Liberty have to give up games due to playing conference games, who are the other teams that will get cancelled? Shouldn't we be able to pick up a game or two from them? I think I have this right.... We haven't lost any Liberty games, so nothing of concern there (yet). I believe we still...

Re: Conference Realignment

The remainder of the Army deal will be cancelled but Army is going to honor two trips to Amherst between now and 2028 in order to even out the games played for the two sides. That could include next season, we don't yet know. UMass, so long as they are an FBS Indy, are not letting Liberty out of th...

Re: transfer portal 2024

UMass hasn't gained anyone, that's a prediction I made that they would land him, but he just entered the Portal a few hours ago. Hopefully they'll be involved and will be able to get him back to WMass

Re: 2023 Season

UMass has been able to offer 85 scholarships for football for many years. They have done so on more than one occasion before this season. There have been several years where they were not at 85 because of things like the previous 25 counter cap or the coach (namely Bell) being ill-prepared for the j...

Re: 2023 Season

UMass has had seasons prior to this one where they were fully scholarshipped. I'm not sure where the notion that this is the first time in 11 years that they have had 85 came from but that is not correct. Sometimes they may have lost someone mid-season or right before the start, but they have had 8...

It was already part of the season ticket package no matter where it was going to be played. Now it will just be your regular seats

The full schedule is not out yet but the women are traveling to Davidson next season

^ And probably (rather than maybe) Missou will cancel. Here's two of the many twitter posts in recent weeks: "A good question I would be asking more for Ryan Bamford is if Missouri has actually approached him about getting out of the road contest in Amherst in 2024. It's UMass' only P5 team at...

Re: What's going on here?

Club programs are not funded by the athletic department. No canaries, they two things aren't under the same umbrella

Re: Add Womens Hockey

Even if UMass did add women's hockey (which I agree they should) it still wouldn't be a 1-for-1 add for more men's scholarships. UMass isn't 100% even in compliance for Title IX as it is. Adding WIH would be good, but cutting baseball and reallocating whatever scholarships they have (which is maybe ...

Re: Baseball 2023

D2 is not an option for UMass. They're a D1 program, can't sponsor a varsity sport at a lower level. Dropping it entirely is the only way they could do it Lowell is having a tough year but at least their program is fully scholarshipped or probably close to it. UMass' is going to be operating with ze...
