    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    I do not have insights into any of these internal AI candidates, but I think that UNH needs to take this opportunity to look externally for a new AD who should be afforded the option to “clean house” in the athletic department. Tabula rasa, I say.

    Ha, ha, ha, Felger, as I have not been to Libby’s since the beginning of the pandemic. 🙂

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Everyone should check out the current Ocean Mapping and Hydrographic Center (OMHC) on the “other side of the tracks,” if you have not already done so, as it is a most impressive facility. My longtime UNH undergrad friend and colleague that I mentioned in my previous post spent his first 15 years...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    This project is a big deal for UNH, as over the past 15 months funding for engineering and physical sciences at academic institutions has taken a major hit from the current federal administration. Fortunately, most of the funding for this $35 mil project was procured in 2023, with $20 mil coming...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Sigh. We made the NCAAs three more times in 2010, 2011, and 2013, our last, after Fortney graduated in 2009. Those were the days, when Umile at UNH and Red Berenson at Michigan were competing for the most consecutive years of NCAA appearances.

    Yup, we visit the Q on Friday, October 2, according to the Bobcats’ partial schedule release. Also, we know that Michigan State returns the favor by visiting the Whitt on 23-24 October, I think, according to the Spartans’ partial schedule release. So, there are three games right there that...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Assuming that the UNH PAB (Powers at Be) read this thread, I recommend that they hire Bentley’s Vaughan Williams as their next AD. Williams has been AD at Bentley since September 2020, oversees 24 team sports and 500+ student athletes, and won the NACDA Div II AD of the Year Award in 2024/25...

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    “ …… mediocre at best hockey coach ….. “ might be overly generous. We have discussed the term “mediocrity” at length on these threads and I believe that most agreed that if our team were mediocre, we would be finishing in the middle of the pack each season rather than at or one rung above the...

    Are you serious? This thread being part of a hockey board has not stopped posters going down these “rabbit holes” over the past many pages. Why stop now? 🙂

    Why cannot we get coaches like Borek Third time is the charm?

    I doubt that we could afford him as Bob Motzko was making over three times MS7’s salary.

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Ok, I get the season seating capacity at 110, 517 (17 games x 6501). But how did you get from 1969 season tickets sold for $373,698 in your first post to 31,705 season tickets in this post?

    UNH Hockey Off Season Thread 2026

    Thanks for these data, Norbert. But what does “capacity for the season” mean? Is the bottom line that UNH is making less than $400k per season on men’s hockey ticket sales? If so, that barely covers MS7’s and Torts’s salaries, let alone the assistant coaches. I am surprised that 278 of the...

    I am not shocked but I am surprised. I think that MS7 should now be very worried if he cannot turn things around this season.

    2026 Coaching Changes

    UNH always has renewed their men’s hockey head coach’s contracts, so a non-renewal of Souza’s contract in spring 2027 would be unprecedented.

    Thanks for the clarification, JB. I should have deleted the second part of your post, which got included automatically in my reply, And I have the deepest respect for one of our greatest post-season goal scorers, Dr Thomas Fortney, and hope that if I ever need a shoulder replacement that I can...

    I think that UNH/Northeast Passage is a fantastic program! About 25 years ago, the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) rebuilt Galehead Hut, which lies at about 3800 ft elevation in the middle of a chain of eight huts without road access across the White Mountains. Galehead hut is 4.6 miles and...

    You are baiting and switching, JB. FlagUp17 wrote that UNH is stronger than BC in Earth/marine science and physical science (likely true), to which I responded that I doubted UNH has ever had any hockey players in those majors. Neither FlagUp17 nor I mentioned STEM or “hard science,” so you are...

    Really? What was Thomas Fortney’s major at UNH? I am dubious that it was Earth or marine science or any physical science. Maybe a biological science? Or, kinesiology? I searched some online and could not find his undergrad major, so maybe you are correct and he is trying to “hide” a major in...
