And he is probably a little embarassed to be playing this way in his backyard and playing second fiddle to a team a couple of miles down the street. Just my hunch.

You had me till this.

Yeah he is embarrassed to be playing against a team that BU has taken 2 of 3 from this year and while BU has won 6 of their last 7, BC has gone 4-5 in their last 9. I don't think the success of the team would have anything to do with a decision like this with how they have been going as of late.

If only Father McFeely (from the 'Heights) had been able to intervene earlier! Young Charlie Coyle and wee Corey Trivino would have seen the light and been saved from eternal ****ation!!

Yeah that's it. He must be embarrassed to NOT be playing for BC, but to endure the pain, suffering and torture of having to play against them. What else could it possibly be? RUN CHARLIE RUN.

Yes that part of it was to rouse up the fanboys and get hysterical responses like "we've won 2 of the last 3 games". Too tempting sorry.

As long as I know that was the reason. Because it just seemed like an unnecessary comment.

rollheiser is pretty tall. he is used to being in front of the net and seeing pucks come at him. any chance he can dress out and play garbage man on the pp to take charlie's spot?

We're all a bit testy right now. Usually this is all in good fun

Or, reading between the lines below, if Coyle hadn't done his work this semester or just failed an exam and is about to get some bad news regarding grades and eligibility...maybe he jumps before he gets pushed

Yup.

Yes it was. Sorry it took away from an otherwise dead-on analysis.

Zero hate. Always admired. Simply debating the issue at hand, which is what we do in America.

Debating ... Hmmmm... Really? More like baiting to me. And people do a lot of THAT too in America. Having fun at other's expense seems to be your MO. Whatever makes you happy, but don't insult by calling it debating. Its clear you like to stir the pot and provoke to promote responses and reel them in.

I figured you "admire" JP as I do and pretty much as everyone else does who has followed College hockey for awhile. In my case, many decades. I hate BC (its an institutional affliction that can't be helped ), but admire York for same reason that I admire Parker. They are the true lions and pillars of the sport.

I have been one of Jackie's biggest critic the past two years saying its time to hang it up, but I find all the critical comments and innuendos the past few days about how Jackie has handled a very difficult situation to be crap. That interview in the Globe yesterday was classic JP. Honest, direct, but he was clearly pained at what he had to do.

Due process? What does that term have anything to do with how a coach in any sport handles significant team violations? That term is for court proceedings and legal issues. Not the coach's or BU's rules and code of conduct.

In JP's case, the team rules, especially where scholarships are involved are very clear cut. After the St. Patrick's Day 2010 debacle, Corey knew the score, but he obviously has a drinking problem that he cannot control. It's a very sad story, but one that is happening everywhere across the country on just about every college campus. Those that know Jack, also know he will probably follow up with Corey in the weeks and months to come ... because that's Jack. But you won't hear or read about that.
