Detroit is apparently more of a water polo town.
    love it!

Are they obligated to have a women's hockey programs? Of course not. And if they don't want one, they'll always be able to come up with a whole litany of reasons why it is impossible.

      There is a ton of talent that comes out of Michigan in both mens and womens hockey. The problem is NOT that there is no interest in womens hockey! It is because the people in control are a bunch of male chauvenist!! That is very sad! Unfortunately, Michigan at the AAA and college level on the womens side is in shambles! And it needs a ton of help! Exception Adrian.

        It's not just the men that are screwing up women's hockey in Michigan. Several women do as well. It is a VERY closed mind state when it comes to women's hockey.

          Couldn't agree more! Maybe they should actually pay someone to come in from out of state to turn things around? Or Canada!

                Notes
                Here are a couple things to keep a watch on:

                With the Big 10 Hockey League a fait accompli, there has been a lot of talk about Miami and Notre Dame possibly joining Hockey East.

                There has also been talk about the University of Indiana possibly adding a varsity hockey program.

                With the college coaches’ convention running next week, there should be no lack of news – or at least lively discussion and speculation – coming out of Naples. We’ll let you know what we hear.

                  I dont see Miami or Notre Dame going east. It would be too much of a travel increase to the rest of the teams. I would expect them to go to the WCHA first...

                  If Indiana starts NCAA Hockey I hope they got some money coming in the way Penn State did.. The IU club teams play at the Frank Southern Center Ice Arena which is a step down from the 2 rink complex where Lindenwood will start its program.. Not exactly a recruiting tool for a new program at a Big Ten institution.

                  Coaches Convention should bring out some great developments this year. Rumors Ive heard is Penn State will conduct its final interviews there!

                      Wonder ...of the all the varsity programs at Penn State.. how many coaches over the years have been from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada?

                        So the Nittany Lions have their coach in place for the men. Have I missed speculation on possible candidates for head coach for the women...or has there not been any rumors on that front?

                          I believe the Mercyhurst head is the frontrunner with the Wayne State head and several Boston area assistants also in the mix..

                            Lots of rumors...lots and lots of them. Wishing I had the time to be in Florida this week.

                                I'm kinda surprised we haven't heard anything about a coach yet. Will things change next week?
