HOCKEY: Where Ferris Will End Up Remains To Be Seen, But...

Depending on how new conference alignments play out, Ferris State University could be facing Robert Morris a lot more in the future.

It appears dreams some people may have of Ferris State heading out west to play in some merged CCHA/WCHA might be a little farfetched.

From a travel standpoint, that may be more than Ferris is eager to bite on at this point. For Northern Michigan and Michigan Tech, the Minnesota-heavy WCHA is a league that perhaps makes more sense.

The Bulldogs, on the other hand, could find themselves heading out east where they are more likely to see opponents along the lines of Mercyhurst and Robert Morris than Minnesota State and Bemidji State (out west).

Time will tell, however, as Ferris looks to see how the dust settles with other teams that are in limbo - teams like Western Michigan University, the University of Notre Dame, Lake Superior State University and Bowling Green State University.

Unfortunately, at this point, we have a lot more rumors than we do substance to bite on.
