2012 UAA Offseason Thread - State of Confusion

Re: 2012 UAA Offseason Thread - State of Confusion

Alaska Hockey said:
I know they have to toss some money at the largest campus in the state system but the phD programs are held tightly in the frozen north if they didn't have them who would realy want to attend there except to go to the research centers and maybe get a cushy overpaid job at the center's to prop up the _airbanks economy. I expect the northlander's will be in high whine and have extra large cardboard signs when the Jets leave for JBER from Eielson to never return.

Leave Anchorage once in a while and you will find something new, ALASKA.

Brutal home schedule IMO. All the teams on here are tough.

For those too lazy to look, we have Minnesota, St. Cloud State, Minnesota-Duluth, Wisconsin, Mankato, Colorado College, and UAF. Don't forget the Kendall Classic as well.

Re: 2012 UAA Offseason Thread - State of Confusion

I know it's been a while since I've posted in a UAA-related thread, and perhaps, with me being an adult and elsewhere now, I'm officially a little out of the loop. And, yes, I know that we rarely talk about bouncyball here for obvious reasons. But I'm enraged and really need to vent.

Between the new on-campus sports complex not having ice and an absolutely wretched 2012 Great Alaska Shootout field that, mind you, was aided by a $2 million state subsidy, I am convinced Steve Cobb's brain is actually a rancid jar of apple sauce.

Cobb has taken everything I loved about UAA athletics back when I was a kid and has turned it all into an enormous pile of horse poop.

That is all. May you all have a great day. I'm going to go vomit with rage.

Correct.

Blame the NCAA's retooling of preseason tournament rules for the demise of the Shootout. The Shootout used to be "it" ... now there's lots of "its".

Education is a prophylactic for ignorance-induced nausea.
 
Re: 2012 UAA Offseason Thread - State of Confusion

This year's field is somehow worse than last year's IMO. At least last year we had three NCAA tournament teams in New Mexico State, Murray State, and Southern Mississippi.

For anyone wondering, this year's field for men is UAA, UC Riverside, Belmont, Loyola Marymount, Oral Roberts, Texas State, Charlotte, and Northeastern. The women's field is UAA, Prarie View A&M, Utah State, and a team TBA.

They mentioned that UAA only graduated 4 players, but "the losses keep piling up", and then mentioned Scheid leaving. Who else do we know for sure has left? JJ you must have a pulse on this??

Re: 2012 UAA Offseason Thread - State of Confusion

Hey Seawolves fans, I'm quietly considering a trip up there again, though it is very far from certain. I have a quick question in regards to tickets, I know I wouldn't have to pre-buy tickets, and could get them when I'm there, but if I wanted to buy them ahead of time, when do they go on sale, and how early would I be able to have actual tickets shipped to me?
