Was going to post on the forum about how the UNH soccer coach is making the far more highly compensated Wildcat coaches, and the AD, look incredibly bad. He isnt forever .500 (or worse), makes things happen on a tight budget and salary, doesnt whine about needing to reduce the width of the pitch by 15 feet to compete against Union and Bentley, etc. Appears that he didnt get the insider email about being mediocre but telling the fandom that we have an exciting butterfly just waiting to break out of the cocoon, trust us.

    Maybe he should spend less time coaching, recruiting and slaying soccer giants. Instead he can concentrate on finding former library employees with ooddles of dough and no heirs who suddenly find a love of soccer late in life. Then all things would truly be Blue Skies. :-)
    Speaking of Bentley, the BC thread has been entertaining the past week. But, have not seen any posts by Nick P.

    And, speaking of Kohei Sato, he is getting TV exposure on NESN this evening.

      Bentley has 3 wins in 5 games so far this season, including wins over real live D-1 programs like BC and Ohio State, plus one over what is usually a very competitive AHCA foe (Holy Cross).

      Snives, you nailed it, we're lucky UNH left the Falcons off this year's schedule ...

        Not yet. It’s in the works. Won’t happen during the season (obviously).

          Should be even more entertaining after tonight's loss to CC...But then I see the Friars scoring 5 in the third and coming in hot to Durham on Sunday....

                  Warriors going for weekend sweep at Agannis this evening, but NESN and NESN+ showing HEA OOC games instead. Scotty Borek and his Warriors getting no respect.

                  In Orono, Sacred Wallet going for weekend sweep.

                      Ladies and gentlemen. It’s been a while.
                      the good news for the SMT’s is that it’s PC tradition to follow up a big win against a top team with a baffling loss - the 2001 Maine/Brown weekend comes to mind.
                      It would be easy to lose focus after playing the #1, #5, and #8 teams three games in a row.

                        With three games in a row, it will be like HEA post-season play back in the day, Jon. But, this time we were gifted home ice. :-)

                          It seems like every team comes up with a couple of surprise wins and a couple of surprise losses each year. I dont think PC has much to worry about today though!

                            UNH v PC is always a decent matchup...some years better than others. Would be great to pull one off here today 'Cats!! Playing a full 60 and scoring would be a start after the last outing. Let's go 'Cats!!

                              Jon, it's great to hear from you, it's been too long. You still out in the Midwest these days?

                              WIS predictions for today (after sitting out the ASU weekend, like the 'Cats apparently did):

                              Providence 5 UNH 2
                              Attendance 3,100
                              Over/Under: 5.5 goals (taking the over)

                              'Cats will try to claw back some respectability after a brutal no-show weekend in the desert, which went downhill fast after the cement-head 5th year senior goalie took a stupid penalty to turn the tide last Friday night. Looking for this to be a close one, but the Friars will hold on, and add some "padding" with an ENG or two in the late going to skate to a "comfortable" 5-2 win.

                                Might get reported at 3,100 but historically Sundays are a TERRIBLE draw for UNH, even when we were still respectable in the late 2000's/early 2010's. Some of those Hockey East game 3 playoffs were sad sights.
                                I'd guess 1,000 real attendance at the absolute max, 2,500 reported.
