  • Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol I: Dawn of the Fifth Age of UW Hockey!

    Tony called both of them associate coaches in the presser. Makes sense to have them with level footing.

      Donny is starting immediately, will hold down the fort while Oz and Tony finish up. He's starting recruiting the minute he leaves the presser. Who on the USDP is not committed?

We want to be respected like the women's program is, like the football program is, like the men's basketball program is. We want to be right there with them."

            I graduated in the early 90's. I would have never thought that quote could have ever been made for multiple reasons.

            And especially multiple reasons that don't include men's hockey.

              Couldn't hear what he said, but I think that Ron Vincent was saying some good things about how happy the hockey alumni are with the changes that were made. I would have to think that they had a big involvement all along.

                When asked about the new coaching dynamic having an impact in getting top-end guys to stick around longer:
                Tony first defers to Oz, who talks about that being part of the challenge of getting high end talent, he sold the new staff's ties to the NHL as a way that teams will be comfortable keeping kids in the NCAA longer
                Then Tony comes back in with "When we bring them in and they leave, we'll find another one"
                I like that mentality, but it will be interesting to see how it actually works out.

                Current players were also available to the media afterwards, I'll be interested to see what some of the players have to say.

                  I missed the second half the presser, but Tony did thank Mike Eaves for being a great ambassador and player of Wisconsin Hockey and wanted him to be there. Classy move, IMO.

                    I'm so geeked after that press conference, I wish the new season was starting today. The coaches seem just as eager to get started on turning this thing around. I cannot wait.

                      Obviously the 3 have some roster clean up to do. Which players are either encouraged to transfer or simply dismissed from the team?

                      Transfer? Sexton, Tischke, Bunz, Ustaski, Grunwald?
                      Dismissed? Keryluk, Shuchuk, Barnes, Hurley, Breon?

                        Question on bench dynamic from Posick.

                        Oz: "Brian do you think Donny and my jobs are going to be to keep Tony in control and off the dasher? ... Probably."

                          So Wisco hired three fully qualified head coaches at once. Will this start a Bi6 arms race? Will the Gophers want someone to coach their hockey team now? Will MI want three at once when Red retires? This could be interesting.
                          Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.

                            If you let Sexton, Tischke, and Bunz go, you're left with one pretty good D in Linhart and one pretty good D that hasn't been able to play actual D much at all in Davison. Plus 6 or more freshman depending on who you can dig up or accelerate. Not sure that's going to be the way to go.

                              Nice event today! Most you saw on tv.
                              Everyone got free pair of Badger socks even the media(or course the NBC 15guy stuffed his camera bag full😥
                              And they advertised new website thiswillknockyoursocksoff.com
                              Shoulda had a USCHO meetup so I could put faces to names.
                              Was interesting to see the disappointment of media when Tony agreed to take a few questions from fans and Alumni.
                              Very impressed with Tony explaining the importance of renewing the legacy.
                              Seems to me they really stressed going after every player of top caliber.
                              Oz said some great ones will leave early and Tony added then we'll get another one!

                              Great day to be a Badger!

                                I think we have the title for the next recruiting thread.
