Michigan State Hockey 202?-202?

Maybe, I'm just curious what your connection is to this particular scenario. Like if you were close to someone who should have been playing over McInnis. But in any event, better for the BC thread.

Thanks, thread police! I'll keep that in mind next time.

The comment wasn't made in reference to recruiting, it was made in reference to a coach potentially having influence over his son's playing career. I think some BC fans would back me up on this one. But if it's a random comment, so be it.

Actually Todd Krygier would be an excellent choice

McInnis was a volunteer assistant and I don't believe those guys can even recruit anyway. Seems like a random guy to mention.

This. I’m no fan of the Krygier twins. However, given Cole’s abysmal recruiting record the new coach is going to have major personnel challenges in Season 1 (assuming, as you said, he doesn’t bring with him a bevy of players/recruits). At that point he’d welcome any short-term experienced skaters he can get. The blow-up will more than likely happen after Season 1, when he can make cuts and attract his own style of players. But please, no BC/Marty McInnis style AC hires!

Pretty certain, whomever takes this job, would welcome whatever experience they can get unless another coach from another school comes in and blows it all up and brings in as many of “his” players as/if allowed.

And who knows, maybe new coach will hire Todd Krygier as an assistant? Lol

Does MSU go north of $400?.. if so, I would then go after Casey Jones

If Casey leaves Clarkson, it will be for Cornell.

At the banquet last night Christian Krygier said he is willing to return for a 5th year if the new coach wants him.

Day after Cole is fired the other Cole withdraws from portal and announces he’ll return for a 5th year. Will his brother also return?

Whatever Cole was making ($325-ish?) will probably be what the new guy will be making.

Jackson HC, Nightingale associate HC...I know, I know...not happening

[Paul Goddard]

Fair enough. I'm coming at this as an outsider so I didn't know the background there.

Excellent point(s) on your part and Jeff Jackson would have been an excellent fit for MSU even as recently as 2011 when school was shopping for a new coach. But I'm not even sure Jackson has the energy and or patience (He's 66!) needed for what is now going to be a complete rebuild......

[John J. MacInnes]

Curious to hear what happened at the banquet last night

[aallenpollreisz]

If I'm Michigan State and Jeff Jackson isn't in the cards, an outside the box hire who would be a home run is Brock Sheahan from the Chicago Steel. He's done an incredible job there, has been a college assistant and has a crazy future in front of him

I’m assuming he’s going straight to Notre Dame after Jackson retires.

I think he’d do pretty well here, though. The dude’s only 37, too.
