    too modest. bc is far and away the best right now (last decade+). the other two are in the high 2nd tier.

          No bong here, fellas. Seriously, if the football program is to really compete for a BCS bowl... then we need to drop the cupcakes like Central Michigan, Buffalo, Bowling Green, Northeastern, Kent State, U-Mass Amherst from the schedule and take one more challenging non-league games that will bolster the SoS. Heck, even with those cupcake wins a few years ago we were 7-0 and placed #2 in the country until we were beat by a formidable ACC team, and went from #2 to #19 over a period of 1 day!

          IMO, Obie was a great recruiter, and great strategy coach; Jag played Obie's system/players. Spazieni is a train wreck, a BC Loyalist who will do whatever Father M wants. For the sake of BC I will say that I am glad Obie has not had the success at NCST that he had at BC.

                  Except mookie is a BU fan. And I doubt he's sandbagging. (and I would probably agree with him).

                  Regarding Jerry York. He is overrated. I want to have Dick Umile as our coach. He has orchestrated 7 regular season titles at UNH. Imagine what he could do at a school like BC - you might not see another team win the RS title again and he'd probably win a lot of Beanpots given his amazing success before March rolls around too! No one remembers who wins these silly little 4 game tournaments in March. It's all about the regular season and the amazing journey that Umile brings us on.

                    My contention is that there are numerous teams that have won similar title numbers as BC in the last ten years, including Denver, Minnesota, and by the weekend....possibly Wisconsin. Suggesting that BC is "far and away the best" over the last ten + years based, I suspect, on final four appearances, many of which have been through venues within a stones throw of Boston, not to mention BC's struggles to win the title when getting there, is quite a stretch.
                    We think highly of York and the BC program in the west, but no more than the top three or four WCHA programs over that same time span.

                      No... your contention was that it was BC fans chest-thumping... when the comment came from a fan of BC's biggest rival.

                      BC, Denver and Minnesota each have 2 titles since 2000; BC dwarfs the other two in FF appearances and also has won something like 7 out of the last 13 conference championships. Spin it any way you want, that puts BC ahead of Denver and Minnesota (with all due respect to those two great programs, which are probably my favorite teams in the west).

                        What does that have to do with anything? First, some teams host regionals in their own freakin building out west. Second, BC teams that have been sent went in the York era (1999, and 2000) got plopped right in the bracket of death with the best team in the tournament (North Dakota/Wisconsin) and promptly smacked both teams in the *** on the way back to the Frozen Four. So really, you look like a buffoon for saying that. It doesn't really seem to matter where or who BC plays in the NCAAs since York got this machine rolling. Top teams, bottom teams, out west, or east. BC routinely gets it done.

                        While some teams have as many national titles, compare BC with everyone else across all of the postseason accomplishments and BC is above all of them. Postseason record, title game appearances, Frozen Fours, league tournament trophies, etc. This run that BC is on since 1998 is ridiculous. It is tough to argue.

                          minnesota is a wonderful example. their 2003 title was won in st paul; and their 2002 regional was won on campus. brilliant.
