What would make him an improvement over Souza or any other coach if Ayers did accept the job ? I was always curious why a UNH guy coach at the Heights preferred BC over his alma mater. I would think Ayers would recruit better players or at least attract more top quality players to UNH. How would his coaching style be an improvement over MS7 ???
LEGIONS, I tellya. Our eldest was still a young-ish teen when we wandered into a small Chinese take-out on Rte. 108 in Newmarket which had limited sit-down capacity at the time (it's still there, with either less or no sit-down capacity) after a home game, which was followed by a FoH event upstairs at The Whitt, where underclassmen were the designated "hosts". It's probably 45-60 minutes after the game by the time we get to Newmarket. Sure enough, who's sitting at one of the few tables off to the side but young Mr. Ayers with his GF at the time, trying to keep a low profile with the local yokels. It was probably working, 'cuz I didn't notice a thing 'til little Ms. Junior Jet-Eye starts tugging repeatedly on my arm, trying to draw my attention to a pair of droopy, sad blue eyes seated in the corner, apparently. After taking a brief nonchalant glance, and confirming her instincts were correct, JJ-E and myself had a quick, whispered huddle (out of The Great One's earshot), where my daughter was instructed on how to respect a student-athlete's personal space away from the rink, especially with Ayers' GF being in the direct vicinity. But she never stopped her admiration of MA34, and for the rest of his UNH career (I think this was his Junior year?) JJ-E would always ask if we'd be stopping at the same place for Chinese takeout after every home game we attended. I'm pretty sure it wasn't for the food lol.
Theoretically, yeah, they could still be playing hockey on March 16th. However, any chance of that being a home game is super remote, if not totally impossible.
Nothing is guaranteed, of course. I don't think anyone has the slightest clue as to what kind of "coaching style" Ayers would bring with him, any more than you guys at BC would have the slightest clue as to what "coaching style" UNH's Jeff Guiliano (a BC alum) would have if he was ever tabbed to be BC head coach in the future.
Aside from that $$$ maybe his experience with BC is teaching him what is required / needed to make UNH a top notch program again in HE. Reminds me of Jerrod Mayo in his first season with the Pats last year with limited coaching experience.Nothing is guaranteed, of course. I don't think anyone has the slightest clue as to what kind of "coaching style" Ayers would bring with him, any more than you guys at BC would have the slightest clue as to what "coaching style" UNH's Jeff Guiliano (a BC alum) would have if he was ever tabbed to be BC head coach in the future.
One thing MA34 would immediately enjoy that MS7 doesn't have is a better reputation with the advisor/agent community, who often make decisions with/for their younger clients as to where to matriculate. So yes, at least initially, you would think Ayers would draw better/more highly rated players to Titletown than Souza has been drawing (which won't be all that difficult for anyone to accomplish TBF).
A$ to why Ayer$ ha$ cho$en to $tay at BC $o long in$tead of returning to hi$ alma mater in $ome capacity, that'$ anyone'$ gue$$ ...
I think many of us here would be quite happy to see Ayers become the next UNH coach. Perhaps he could even convince a couple of his recruits to join him in Durham.
My guess is that even if UNH went on a run the last home game would be the 14th in a quarterfinal game. There would not be any impact on the locker rooms with mobilizing construction and demo to start. Also the women will be done so they could start there or the other locations first.
Suffolk Construction built the first LEED Platinum-certified hockey arena in the country.
Suffolk Construction also built the venerable Whittemore Center Arena a great many years ago
Good god, stupidity on steroids. Promise you he’d make minimum $75k -$100k more per at BC with MUCH better perks. Compensation matters.
What does this have to do with what I said? lol
Your back sore from moving the goalposts here? I don't think it matters if you said it about specific players. Why would they want a volunteer who said they collectively don't deserve their scholarships?
Yes, you've said that a dozen times on here before. Someone who comes on to the internet to point out members of their team shouldn't have their academic scholarships may not be a first choice to be a volunteer at the golf tournament.
