The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.
Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar.
We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
I think as time goes on we’re going to look back at how college athletics used to be run and absolutely cringe. There were a lot of people making big money off of athletes labor and the athletes were treated horribly. Obviously the sports were entertaining so it was easy for folks to rationalize...
Now that would be a win-win! Hopefully the Flagg’s can revive men’s basketball, and to be fair to the program they were decent back in the day. It’s hard for me to see women’s hockey ever being that great but maybe the right person can make it happen.
Has Maine(meaning the state not school)...
I think they would be much better off putting the money towards women’s basketball, but I’m sure if the program was ever cut there would be all sorts of outrage.
I think it’s more a case of not wanting Platner. I don’t want to speak for them but my guess is they probably don’t want someone with a nazi tattoo in the senate.
Didn’t BU have a player like 10 years ago who got caught gambling and was allowed to come back? This whole thing is a storm in a teacup as far as I’m concerned.
The red states are the only ones providing much opportunity for young folks to buy a house right now. Unless your parents are rich it’s nigh on impossible to buy one in a blue state due to how much they limit supply.
The inconsistent effort and choking in the last six weeks of the season has to somewhat be on him. He seems like a sulker to me and you don’t want someone like that as captain.
I wish I could find my post when he first announced. This guy is a democrat in name only and there is more stuff to come out that is much worse. I truly do not understand how the powers that be thought he was even an average candidate.
Edit: one thing that is frustrating is the Democrats have...
Up until Notre Dame and UConn joined the league the schedules were always fine. You had maybe one or two games against bottom feeders and that would be it. At this point if the league went back to playing each team three teams it would be a big improvement.
I think a lot of the schedule is self serving. It makes the record look better and the AHA/Independent schools are better NPI value than NCHC/Big10 teams. Money obviously plays a part as well.
Fixing who pays and how is part of the solution, but I think you need to fix compensation as well. We pay way more than people in other countries. There should be a better system for compensating victims of medical malpractice as well.
Democrats want to do some good things as far as expanding access to folks with limited means, which is commendable, but to me the fundamental issue is there is way too much cost in the system. Both parties have too many sacred cows to make meaningful changes.
Not sure I’ve ever seen a post on USCHO I’ve more strongly agreed with. The whole system is completely nuts. There are so many people making so much money on how the system is constructed right now I doubt it changes anytime soon.
All of these guys seem pretty solid and this looks by far the biggest amount of talent Barr will have brought in. I wasn’t that impressed with the CHL guys he brought in last year and he has had success with transfers so nice to see him go back to that.
Just compare what they’ve said publicly to the fine print. It’s right on the donation page.
I looked at the system’s FS for the first time today and it’s pretty shocking. The system barely collects any more tuition/R&B revenue now than they did 10 years ago. Their expenses in that time have...
