How comfortable will Eaves be with Oz since he left once already and we know how Eaves feels about guys shopping themselves/leaving after the Troy Ward situation.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Never like to see anyone lose their job, wish these guys the best in the future. I think we lose sight of the fact that these guys have mortgage and families and such while we're calling for their heads.
Really has the feeling like Eaves threw them under the bus, when he should have been inspecting the tires right with them.

Oz didn't leave for a lateral job and wasn't shopping himself constantly. I don't see some of these super staff combos working....to many chiefs and not enough Indians. I think Eaves desperately needs a top end high profile lead assistant, and then a younger, hungry, up and comer, with ties to western Canada. Oz with his Minnesota and dman recruiting ties as well as dman coaching rep or Granato with his ties to USDT kids makes sense as that lead guy.

Honestly, I'd expect either unproven assistants or potential future head coaches out of this. Depends on how much support Eaves is getting from Barry. Either good assistants will shy away from the program being in the state its in, or we're going to get someone who thinks that they see the writing on the wall with Eaves and wants the first foot in the door.
I guess there's an outside chance that a quality assistant is interested just based on misplaced prestige (you know... almost like becoming the head football coach at Fordham right now) where he thinks he can help turn the ship around, but it's just hard to imagine that right now.
He may need some USHL time first, but could fit that second spot.St. Norbert College Green Knights

Originally posted by Gandalf the Red View PostI don't think anyone has lost sight that they have families and mortgages, etc, but they were also hired to complete a job and failed at completing that job. This isn't a case where the head coach was fired and the assistants were retained because they had value. Eaves should have gone with them, but again they failed at completing the job they were hired to do. If only Barry was brave enough to do the job he forced Eaves to do...Michigan Tech Legend, Founder of Mitch's Misfits, Co-Founder of Tech Hockey Guide, and Creator/Host of the Chasing MacNaughton Podcast covering MTU Hockey and the WCHA.

From what I know from friends the BADgers should not hire Oz as a head coach or they will run into the exact same problems OSU had. Bad idea, bad idea, bad idea.Slap Shot - 444 might want to consider a restraining order.

Since we're stuck with Eaves, what's his pitch to try and get the good assistants that have been suggested to actually apply? I honestly can't imagine how that phone call would go. "hey our defense, offense, power play, and penalty kill was terrible, come fix it for me because I couldn't figure it out all year?"

What was OSU's issue with Oz? His results weren't horrible and he was starting to get some good recruits. I recall something about maybe him griping about facilities, but it's all lost in the ether now.If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

Alex and a few other kids from this year's freshman class decide to transfer, a few current commits decide to adjust their timing with coming to campus and BAM you get balanced classes.
You all got what you wanted, right? Balanced recruiting classes was the big deal that was holding us back, right?
