    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Me too, and I suggested it, mostly in guest. I will admit to either a single clap (the rest implied) or a miss my own hands clap when the coach is announced every game. How else do you get the University to wake up? Which is worse a paper bag in protest, or just walking away like most have?

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Student tickets are still "free"... remember they are paid for in the mandatory athletic fee. Right now UNH has an entire end (~1000 seats) reserved for "student tickets". Contractually they only need to hold 300 plus ~200 to fit the band in behind them. So in sellout games the University...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I noted this before, I had heard there was some friction and he might not be well liked. I really do wish him well. If UNH wasn't the right fit, the world is now one where it is easier for a student to find a new fit. We can be disappointed and should still wish that student well. As to why...

    Fun with AI... Since 2000 there have been 15 coaches that have won their 1st title with their current program. Two had won one with a previous program 2001 Jerry York wins his first title with BC having previously won at BG. 2007 Rick Comley winning his 1st at Michigan State after winning at...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Scarano's hang over is the real issue with hockey. As long as Umile was around and not declining with age, as we all do, hockey was safe. Umile had more juice than Scarano. This is the reason the FoH is gone. Once Umile was gone Scarano wanted control of that cash. Under the FoH 50/50 at...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Historically UNH has pretty much always accepted mediocrity with the exception of Hockey. Bill Bowes was head football coach 27 years, average finishing 3rd in league, 6 times league champ and 4 trips to the NCAAs. Now a .620% winning percentage seems really good winning 5 of every 8 games...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Yup, which is also why I assume it is a high margin operation... also they do a good job of keeping shrinkage (loss in retail terms) to a minimum, lets just say don't eat the popcorn, no telling how many months it has been recycled.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Bakchk - yup some spreadsheet math. I even did a little ai trick to count green dots in GA sections for a couple up coming games. Hence I know GA is closer to 75% sold. Full is 6501 since Whitt opened and some how didn't go up when they shrunk the rink and added seats. Easier to go with their...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    OK little business school math.... I was pondering this sitting at the Whitt on Friday. Official attendance for that game was 4594. I don't believe that number for 1 second, that building wasn't even half full, so 3250 MAX. So lets say UNH is calling tickets SOLD attendance. Example the row...

    WHen you collapse like they did in the 3rd, I would hope there is some soul searching and we see something different. These guys are competitive, you don't get to where they are without being that way. Forget the coaches just there pride alone should force some changes.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    I think in OT 3-on-3 if you leave the zone on your own you need to loose the puck. I don't know the exact how but I wouldn't want a faceoff. If we are all the way down this "pick up hockey" rabbit hole, carry it back out of zone, just dump it behind the net and let the other team have it.

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    In this case I think we can put aside the conspiracy theory. Last time Nesmith was renovated, 10 years ago, the University student population was still growing. The master plan was built around the student trends and honestly minor upgrades was probably responsible use of the money...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    Serious question is the short OT and shutouts at the Bean Pot the NCAA? Or is the schools and the garden (both venue and event organizer)? Crazy alternate world thought... would 2-on-1 or 3-on-2 "drills" be better than a shoutout? It is more common in hockey to have odd man rush than a break...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    This team needs to play more in the dirty areas. Even the "high skill guys" don't really have the shot of high skill players of the past. UNH needs to learn to manufacture goals and that is generally being in and being better in the dirty areas. EDIT: I like some of what I see in Newcombe's...

    Executive Director of the Sustainability Institute Fiona "Wilson expressed her excitement for a new location for the Sustainability Institute, as the current building, Nesmith, is older and out of date for students and staff to work effectively in. It’s one of the least sustainable buildings on...

    All these building were built in first decade (ish) UNH was in Durham making them all at least 120 year old. They were all originally part of the Ag program. Over the years the Ag program has grown and spread out away from central campus. Some of the land UNH has owned for a very long time...

    UNH- How Far West Do We Go?

    The last I saw the 3 being moth balled are Nesmith, Morrill and Taylor. They are all in need of up grades, it is unfortunate they are all at the intersection of Main Street and College Road (essentially across the street from the Whitt). Going to need to spend some money keeping them looking...
