    Jim Crawford.

    He wins hockey games, he could recruit Ben Johnson, and you probably only need to pay him in Labatt's and cigars.

    What do you think, geezer? :P
    I joked about this awhile ago. He's the highly respected elder stateman of MI HS hockey coaches, and that's the perfect job for him. If you knew him, you'd know why I said I "joked" about him ever moving on. He's a great guy, but even if he wasn't nearly Red's age, it's impossible to imagine him coaching in college. I can't even see him in D-3. But yeah, the Labatt's incentive might do it.
    I hear he scares the crap out of his players, so Johnson would probably head to Alaska if they hired him.

    another word "out of the paint store": the current players love Whitten, and hope the new regime will find a spot for him on staff.

    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.

      Ok, I may be showing my age, but I've seen "This" enough times now that I have to ask what it means. I get the drift it is a way showing support for a previously stated opinion but I'm curious what it is really all about.

            sorry no offense, but Jim Crawford is in no way qualified to coach a WCHA team, NO... WAY.

              Yes most of us fans love him too. He's a hard worker, knows hockey etc. If you take a look a lot of the changes jamie has installed as the year went by, especially as it relates to how Tech approached the game, were his ideas.He's innovative and smart. He could be a good head coach and fairly soon.

                There should be no issue keeping Damon Whitten.

                Most coaching changes mean the head coach and the associate coach are
                brought in.

                The second assistant normally eases the transition and is a member of the current
                staff.

                I think the Whitten hire was a very good one. He doesn't deserve to be sent packing.

                I think the next coach will keep him on staff to ease the transition with the team.

                How soon do you think after the Frozen Four everybody, will we know who the next coach is????

                  The thinking was that an announcement would come anytime after May 1st. I would guess that we'll know by the second or third week of May.

                    My guess on a hiring process is that they'll have it posted for two weeks, a week of phone interviews for about 10 candidates, followed by a week of onsite interviews with final 3-5 candidates. So we should hear during the week of May 8th.

                      It's going as well as can be expected considering his team is still playing. We've had a few emails back and forth and if I get the chance on thursday, he will be surprised by my $200 investment in the future of the program! I'll post pictures of phase II of operation Catch-22 sometime thursday or friday.

                          Sounds good; probably is more than what Tech is doing. I still think they believe the best will come calling.

                            I think they realize their job opening isn't that attractive right now...at least until they tell the best candidates that money isn't an issue.

                              I think old alums think that. I do not believe Suzanne thinks that. How can you say this one time and then say Mel would?

                              Salary info is not that hard to get for a public institutions. It's readily available on campus, though it would not have bonus or other incentives.
