Isn't this article a little late to the party ???  I understand that they just "announced" that the women would be moving to The Joe for this coming years tournament, but that was a forgone conclusion.

Hey I didn't write it, just thought it was a good read and wanted to share  ;D .  I posted another article about the HL incoming freshman by Sports Nation.

GB doesn't like it because they always hosted the women's side.  They weren't complaining when their men won this past season...

Yet, other HL fans don't understand why VU fans are upset with it.  We have more question marks coming into this season than we had in a long time.  But we win this season it will be 5 out of 6 that we should have hosted.

GBPG had an article a year ago when this was first announced.  "We thought it worked well the way it was and see no reason to change it" was the gist of the article, coming from a team that always hosted.  Of course it worked well for them and they see no reason to change it. ::) :lol:  :snore:
