Fire Dick Umile

Re: Fire Dick Umile

At least we got to the Garden the past two years, thanks to late-season heroics, which did not materialize this year.

Coach Mad Again had as much to do with UNH getting to the Garden last year as Coach Umile did.

Bottom line, he is paid way too much. It is time for him and the program to split...I once had hopes he would win a National Title...but now, he can't beat anyone by Maine. And they suck too. Hell, I would settle for a trip to the NCAA's again.

Re: Fire Dick Umile

Actually, what you heard was probably correct about a decade ago, when DU was still getting his teams to the NCAAs. His really big salary year included deferred payments from his deal not to bolt for UMass-Amherst, I think.

Re: Fire Dick Umile

I admitted I jumped the gun on that...I had heard incorrectly before. Highest paid coach. Which, considering the results is an insult to the good coaches.

He is not the highest paid employee in the state. He's not the highest paid employee in the USNH. He's not even the highest paid coach at UNH.

Thanks for playing

I thought coaching was a results based business

With all the money these people make no wonder tuitions are off the chart!

Re: Fire Dick Umile

So, highest now = 11th?

Who do you think makes more money than Umile?

The latest information I can find is from last August. Where Umile is reported to have made $242,780 in 2014. You are right that he not the highest paid USNH employee, I misspoke on that. However, at that time he was 11th. And he is also the highest paid coach, with Coach McDonnell in second earning $223,860.

Considering Coash McDonnell seems to reach the same amount of wins but with much fewer games you can see my frustration with the crap Umile has put out there recently...

Re: Fire Dick Umile

10 wins in the regular season...he is the highest paid employee in the state, he does not deserve something in the ball park of $40K per win. He is 67...let's have him "retire". Dear God, please!

Women's?

Yes.

Re: Fire Dick Umile

They DO have an ACHA championship (and a banner!).

Women's?

Re: Fire Dick Umile

If Dick Umile goes, does his comb over stay? How's the contract worded?

Re: Fire Dick Umile

Bump, after 4+ years.

Only 26th in Fish Ranking simply not good enough.

May god have mercy on your soul.

Why, Snively ... why?? Talk about self-inflicted damage, totally avoidable.

Everything after you resurrected this long-lost thread is on you, dude.

It was not easy to find, either. :-)

The Fire Mike Eaves thread now has 900 posts, over 300 more than DU has wins.
