Is there room for a 2nd arena football team in Albany?
The Arena Football League, which disbanded after the 2019 season, is being revived this year, with an eye toward a 2024 launch with as many as possibly 16 teams. League officials are interested in putting a team in Albany, but the Empire, the last AFL champions before the dissolution of the old league, are the 2-time defending National Arena League champions, and have no plans to jump back. The Empire begins their season in April.

It might be in the best interest of UAlbany to cut bait on Dwayne Killings, given his legal issues.
The Great Danes dropped their 6th straight, 66-50, to UMass-Lowell Wednesday night. As the losses mount, so do the distractions. Gerald Drumgoole, Jr. led Albany with 18 points, as the Danes fall to 1-8 in America East play, leaving them in last place, heading into a home game with arch-rival Vermont on Saturday.
