      Read the article, it gives you all that you would need to know.

      But I'll go ahead and fill you in..
      He never got his degree as a student.
      Part of the job requirements for the Head Coach position was having earned a degree or being able to do so within 12 months of hiring.
      Coach G is taking the required classes to finish his degree, 15 credits worth.

        The huh was for how did he get hired without the degree. Yea I saw the 12 mos requirement, but how many colleges have a grace period?

            Suppose Phil The Rodent ignores his nature and stayed home at UW for 05-06. What are the consequences?
            I think I'd have to say the biggest impact by far on Wisconsin Hockey would have been if Amanda followed the traitor to UW.

              I'd say 100% of them that have an opening and an opportunity to hire a guy with Tony's hockey credentials.

                Ding ding ding....we have a winner. During traitorette's 14 years with the rodents, UW was a little underfirepowered in comparison to the rodents. UW would have won multiple championships, perhaps even 4 with her on the roster. We're probably talking undefeated seasonS.

                    I would question your source. Phil was never on Team Wisconsin. He was always a Capitol; never played high school hockey...trust me.

                    When we meet, and we will, we will talk Muskies, Walleye, Smallies, and Real Hockey Stories. (I can hear people I know running and closing themselves into closets as I type.)

                      I would trust you more than my co-worker. Or I shouldn't trust what I remember! Anyway, maybe he knew they didn't get along, who knows. I do clearly recall him saying not so nice things about Skille's metal capacity. He was shocked he got into UW. It could just be my source too. He may have been a straight A student!

                            No because he has made about 80 million and Skille struggles to play regular
