Originally posted by pucko View PostI find it interesting that there's an entire thread on Harvard women's hockey coach playing "mind hunger games" with her players - and yet Muzzerall is being lauded on here for basically decommitting players at whim, walking back promises/scholarships the last minute to players who had their hearts set on tOSU, replacing players that SHE RECRUITED after only 1-2 years so she can pick up transfers instead of actually, oh, I don't know, coaching and developing kids. What kind of experience are her student-athletes having? No one seem to cares, the sentiment is more 'oh, players should know what they're getting into because she's The Muzzinator". Because she's winning with the hodge podge she's been able to put together the last few years because of COVID, that way she's running her program is ok? Why don't you ask some of the earlier players about the time she walked into the locker room, made a popping sound with her finger, and said "That's you guys getting your heads out of your asses". Talk about class.

Mark Johnson’s legacy has skyrocketed on the strength of his last 3 championships. Transfers factored heavily in all of those. People act like there werent people on his rosters losing playing time because of it. I don’t think it’s right to criticize Muzerall like she is the only one who loves the portal. In fact she herself lost a high profile player in Sauve to Clarkson (yes she was a graduate). The knife cuts both ways. Any of the five programs that has won a natty has been on the receiving end of high profile transfers simply because those are the programs people want to be at.Last edited by Lindsay; 03-31-2023, 08:36 AM.

As an example Sophie Jaques was on a 2 year engineering scholarship this year, because of what is available at OSU and her academic ability. Didn’t need an athletic scholarship.

(And I'm pretty confident that Johnson's legacy was already firmly established prior to 2019.)

The five St Cloud players combined for zero goals, four assists, and the one goalie got zero minutes..
but no calls for Idalski to develop his 7 players in the portal? Just multiple coach of the year awards and a t shirt that says it’s not personal it’s business. Hmmm,

Ohio State had, I think, six transfers on this year's roster. Has Wisconsin ever had more than two?

I don't recall the Sinners having more than two and that is pretty similar to the Tunnelers. Speaking of the Tunnelers, Goalie Olivia King is in the Portal.At the outset, we could hang with the dude...

Decommitment is what happens when a Coach doesn't honor the verbal commitment to an incoming freshman because the coach decides to raid the transfer portal for seasoned players, leaving the incoming freshman scrambling to find a new program. And I've been told that's 100% happened at OSU over the past few years.
