    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Yes, I'm sure this late activity is not going over well in certain corners. Once The Fluffer stops fluffing MS7, we may be in big trouble ... 🤣

    What the he11 did he expect ... these guys were his teammates; he left them in the lurch for $ome ca$h. Was he expecting flowers and/or hugs?!? :rolleyes:

    Heartbreaking, actually. Now UVM has since won a D-1 title in Men's Soccer, and NC State (Hubbard's new home) made the Finals last season, he will make it to the top soon enough. And you will be doing your usual lament, as in "Why can't UNH ever get people like that? Oh, wait ... " (y)

    Hate to break this to you Em ... but the Fuddruckers VIP section across Route 114 has been closed for a few years now 😥 ;)

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I'd be very careful with that line of approach anywhere near the UMaine thread, Norbie. By all accounts a nice guy, but some coaches are born assistants, and I think Red fits that bill. Using your logic here, then Carvel was lucky to inherit some of his guys too (including Makar) from his...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I love posts like this ... raise a topic, review the data, and debate the conclusions. I'm not sure the NFL has a lot in common with NCAA D-1 Hockey, but the goal in both places is to run a successful winning program. And if you don't win OR move towards winning quickly in the NFL, there is a...

    Sadly, yes it does ... but we move on.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    So, I kind of agree with some of this, and don't necessarily agree with other parts of it. Starting with Football, I don't know that you can say hires from within the UNH Football family tree haven't worked out? Going back to Bill Bowes in the early '70's coming over from Penn State, and then...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I'm sorry, but the idea of a significant BC contingent traveling to Titletown 😂 for a nothing game in mid-January 😂😂 sure, there will be some diehards, some from the board here ... but BC was outnumbered in ManchVegas by the combined forces of Bentley and UNH fans for an NCAA tourney game less...

    Hope you're right, nothing wrong with being positive and optimistic. Once upon a time, I was like you are now ...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Q: How much is Souza paying you to run cover for him? Really, how much?? is money involved, or is it some kind of barter or like-kind contributions??? The guy who should be able to answer those questions is the head coach himself. If there is a need for his program, then he should be...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    UNH is only going to get so far on a recruiting strategy that largely depends upon scooping up everyone else's "surplus to requirements" players, especially when the current coaching staff has no demonstrable history of developing the talent they bring in. You'll be in the bottom tier of HEA...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Yeah, I agree, I also suspect Barr will bounce back ... his programs have always done so in the past, and he will likely adjust to the new D-1 realities. The road to the top doesn't always follow a straight line, but he's been down that road before, and I'm pretty sure he hasn't lost the road...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    My concern for the last few years is that "hockey version of Cignetti" is currently running the program up in Orono, and our previous AD (Blue Skies) screwed the pooch on that opportunity when he was giving MS7 his first (undeserved) extension. Opportunities like that only come up so often, and...

    It seems the demise of SteveF has been greatly exaggerated ... mostly due to me. I thought I'd qualified it with an IIRC, but regardless ... apologies, sorry!!
