  • Re: Michigan Tech needs a new coach, what do you say Cary Eades?

    I don't believe basically anything said about this because the AD isn't talking and the coaches aren't talking either. If they did and didn't get the job they'd have egg on their face.
    You have to understand the sports radio people are not about facts, they are about ratings. Just like sean hannity, or bill o'reilley, or that idiot rush, no facts are required.

    I also think the job will pay a salary commensurate with the qualifications. Whatever that might be.

      Interesting connection between former MTU coach Newell Brown and Dean Blais I hadn't realized.

      Also, a great article on Blais (and UNO). Whether there is any truth to Blais being interested or not, it was about as good advertising for the job as Tech could ever hope to get, that arguably the best coach in college hockey is interested; if nothing else maybe it was a great marketing plan by Sanregret.

      One item to note is that although UNO is drawing on average 6500-7000 fans, it only fills half their arena which the article also notes doesn't make for a great atmosphere; also the rink is 15 minutes from campus.

        They are building an 8000 seat arena on campus.

          Yes, the AD talked about the canidates without saying any names in the article on Friday April 8.

              No she said nothing about the Candidates not canidates, only that there was a lot of interest, that is not the same thing.

                Really, it's patently ridiculous that Blais is even being discussed. Assuming he wanted the job, his buyout would be massive as was just mentioned. Tech just bought out the last year of Russell's deal (or he "resigned" if that's what you want to believe), and even assuming they got some donations, they will be very lucky to be able to offer anyone five years at $175,000.

                The reality is that so little information is out there, that people like the KFAN radio crew will take any wild rumor and run with it on a slow news day.

                  You are a jack***. Can you please go take a potty break and give the boards a rest for a while. Thanks much.

                    Yeah, right.

                    I'll tell you what. If Blais is announced as our next coach, I'll switch NHL allegiances for one season and actively root for a team other than the Wings next year. The team would be chosen by a public poll on the Cafe side.

                    You all have my word. Hell, I'd even buy some of TBD team's apparel. That's how much stock I put not only in this rumor, but Tech actually getting him even if he has "shown interest".

                      Even if he does have some interest, Tech will MNS it somehow.

                        Not sure if Eades, Blais or Rolston are the guys or not, but I do know that Tech is willing to pay the "right coach" 150-175K a year plus benefits. Which shows that Tech is serious this time around.

                          Welcome to the boards, not a bad first post! Tech fan? I'm almost positive the only one out of the 3 you listed that would even consider the MTU job is Eades.

                            They'll get ripped for it one way or another. Can't make everyone happy.

                            How many college head coach openings are there? Tech, Penn State?, Providence?

                                Well, sort of. It's not like it's a $100,000 raise, but we all knew that Tech can't afford that. Still, that's not bad.
