Re: Fire Mike Eaves?
I am concerned for his well-being. I would hate to put a person out of work in this economy. Re-train him, or try and improve his coaching ability. I'm all about helping a person in need.Originally posted by D2D View Post

If you guys want to raise some money to hire a new coach, charge subscription fees to non-UW fans to read this thread this summer. I'd paytUMD is Jan Brady per Brenthoven. Whew.... thanks for clearing THAT up.

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?
Watching OSU play yesterday made me think that OZ should not be on the list of replacements, he never really got OSU to the next level & the guys he recruited are still on their roster and the team is not doing all that well.
Hastings, Blaisi, Pearson & Montgomery are my top 4. I think the allure of coaching UW and the awesome facilities will allow Barry to pry an existing head coach from another team. Plus getting immediate results will be more likely from a guy with head coaching experience.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

I don't know if this is the year...or you give Eaves another shot. But if you can get them, I think you're right on your candidates.Originally posted by Timothy A View PostGo Gophers!Comment

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?
I think Gwoz has his sights set higher, and his ego is getting in the way of simply finding a job. There is a possibility he just doesn't want to coach anymore, too.Originally posted by SCSU Euro View PostNever really developed a taste for tequila.

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?
Higher than the University of Wisconsin? That's pretty **** high. Plus, I think he'd love the idea of turning a dumpster fire into a Frozen Four team in 2 or 3 years. Not saying he'd for sure succeed, just think he thinks he would.Originally posted by Brenthoven View Post

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?
I'd keep him. He's rebuilding, a lot of new talent coming in. The problem isn't Eaves, he's proved he can coach, it's the University's inept attitude toward hockey. They are focusing on football, basketball, all the high revenue sports. Why that takes their attention is beyond me, it's not all about the money.

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?
Of course it is all about money that is the only reason BigTen has a hockey conference....... Minnesota doesn't only focus on the revenue sports because their teams suck and nobody care's about them. If Football keeps on the rise you see how things will shift there too.Originally posted by ex_goldy View PostI'd keep him. He's rebuilding, a lot of new talent coming in.

Isn't he close to 60 yrs old? Or is he already there? If he doesn't need the money I could see him hanging it up.Originally posted by SCSU Euro View PostHigher than the University of Wisconsin?
