  • Your program's Mount Rushmore

    I'm not sure if this has been done on here before, but a few years back ESPN did a Mount Rushmore type piece for different sports teams. Basically, who are the 4 people (players, coaches, ADs, etc.) that would be on your school's hypothetical Mount Rushmore? Feel free to include more than four, but basically I plan on collecting the "nominees" and come up with a Mount Rushmore for each school. When we have plenty of nominees, I plan on using the polls section where fans can vote (if there are more than 4). Ultimately, CHW may use the data for a piece before the 2012-2013 season starts. Anyway, I thought it would be a fun discussion for the summer, and I will start off with North Dakota...

    North Dakota: Ben Cherski, Greg Johnson, Jeff Panzer, Dean Blais

    So, who is on your school's Mount Rushmore?

    Probably go with Harry Lawson, Bill Wilkinson, Dan Dorian and Wayne Gagne for Western. Too early to tell if this latest renaissance will lead to new faces on the cliff, especially with two coaches in two years.

        I havent been around/alive as long as some of the other RPI fans but if I were to choose 4 for my Mt. Rushmore it would go like this:

        Ned Harkness
        George Servinis
        Frank Chiarelli
        Mike Adessa

        So tough to choose just 4.
        Loyality means sticking with a thing in good and bad times. Not willing to do that, stay home, I got this.

          Ken Mellem should also be on UND's Mount Rushmore.

              Re: Your program's Mount Rushmore

              Well, I'm sure those more learned than I will disagree, but for Wisconsin, I will start the debate with:

              Bob Johnson
              Mike Eaves
              Mark Johnson
              Bill Howard

              It's heavy on the coaching impact, I guess, but with the staying power and infleunce they have had, I start there.

                      Gino is certainly worthy, but I wouldn't take Blais off. He brought UND back to being a national power after being in the doldrums in the early 90s. I'm fine with Gino replacing Johnson or Panzer.

                      EDIT: Gino Gasparini has been added to North Dakota's list.
