Wisconsin Recruiting: What are you going to do, when NHL-U, comes calling for you?

Re: Wisconsin Recruiting: What are you going to do, when NHL-U, comes calling for you

I'd once again like to make the modest proposal that we do away with the recruiting thread and merge all the recruiting information into this one thread. It seems that we seem to have a number of parallel conversations and it would just be easier to have one thread to check for badger information.

It seems like this topic has been brought up in another thread.

I screwed that up! I was thinking "in recent memory" but that apparently did not make it's way from my mind to my fingers and into the article!

I'm sure there were lots of players before Juniors became so prevalent, but not sure if there have been any recently. The only Wisconsin player I could think of that has made the jump directly to D1 recently was Ted Behrend who is at Colorado College (without looking, I think he'll be a Senior next year...). He's from the Madison area.

Perhaps I should edit that part of my article!!!

We forgive you.

The University of Wisconsin currently has three players who made the jump directly from high school hockey in Minnesota, but none at this time that have come directly from Wisconsin high school hockey without playing Junior hockey (and none that come to mind that have done it previously).

Um, Mark Johnson comes to mind.

John Byce, Dennis Snedden?

Brad Navin will skip Junior hockey and be a Badger next season. http://www.wissports.net/article.asp...1531&sportID=5

Wittchow...what yr of HS is he in now and what's his projected class for UW?

Wittchow is a senior at Burnsville right now and his whole family cheers for the Badgers but he does have family in Colorado Springs. He lists us, Minnesota, and CC but it's going to come down to us and CC for his services with us having a huge edge.

Too bad your mother didn't practice this. Oh wait, I think she tried and it failed.

Grow up huh...this coming from the same guy who post the same 5 images dubed a "Minnesota Sucks week" year after year....You are about as objective when it comes to college hockey as Obama is on the abortion issue.

Sconi sucks and Chuck swallows Eaves load...Go Gophers!

He should have been fired. His real name isn't even Chuck!

Seriously? The next thing you are going to tell us is his last name isn't Schwartz?

May the Schwartz be with us.

I agree with Pucky Bucky...I just want as much info as possible, I'll frequent whatever sites/sources do that.

Not that I really have a whole lot of say around here being relativly new, but how can we really bad mouth any one on here or on 60 Minutes. These guys are going out of their way to gather information about Badger hockey for people to read. They're taking a lot of things that would take majority of us a while to find and putting it in one place. I know with Chuck leaving we might have to look a couple place to find all the information we want but it's one more mouse click. I for one will still be checking 60 Minutes every day (10-20 times a day during the school year) and Chuck's twitter. Moral of the story is we still want to know as much about badger hockey as possible. Thanks guys for all your hard work.

RP- Jesus how much time to do you to troll other team's threads, take the trash out and wash your hands, Mom says dinner is almost on the table.

Burnsville, MN defenseman Eddie Wittchow who the Badgers are on hard right now will be visiting next Friday and Saturday (May 6-7.) This kids stock is rising rapidly.
