If you’re not contractually obligated to a school I think it will be difficult for them to make you stay. I highly doubt if the bill passes it stops litigation.
It will be interesting if any states consider athletes employees. I know MA is pretty strict and there are others as well.
I like the depth a lot and think Maine will be tough/uncomfortable to play against, but the top six will likely be the weakest it’s been since the 80’s or whenever. There really isn’t one good offensive forward returning and not sure any of the guys coming in fit that bill either. I think there...
I believe they’ve had a couple others in the role but they haven’t stuck around that long. I doubt it’s the most lucrative job. Hopefully the new guy helps, but given the age of most of the players it’s probably tough to make huge gains.
Yeah, Umaine and USM are both down 200-300 each. UMPI has a SNHU like program that is dirt cheap and enrollment in that is way up. They’re going to issue a more comprehensive report in the fall.
Not great enrollment news for the Orono campus https://www.pressherald.com/2026/08/31/umaine-system-projects-10-year-high-in-enrollment-as-classes-begin/
I think that would be around a $5MM revenue hit YOY.
It’s a little surprising to me that RI’s bridge problems haven’t spurred the other NE states to action. We’re lucky in Maine that most bridges we could live without temporarily without too much hassle. I think at some point the Boston area is going to have major issues with bridges. There are so...
I’m sure most police chiefs would hire better candidates if they could. It seems like one of our country’s biggest problem is complete denial over basic economic and market fundamentals.
You can’t make this up:

Who are the idiots who think this is a good idea?
Maine obviously has financial challenges but it’s hard to know how apples to apples things like what is in the article are. I’m sure every athletic department has a little different spin on how they handle their accounting.
I’m sure they will get a decent return and I suspect Larkin leaving could be addition by subtraction. He obviously is a good player but I think he has been a huge part of the problem as far as Wings not making the playoffs.
What do you do with Cat, Faulk, and Edvinnson? It will be interesting...
Not sure promoted is the word I would use. I think this really sucks and doesnt make the Wings any better in the immediate term. I do think they’re setup reasonably well in the longer term though. It’s tough to win with the current rules unless you get the right luck in the lottery in the right...
