Kieran Millan has benched for Friday's game for skipping class per BHB. So looks like Rollie will get the start or maybe Moccia haha just kidding it better be Rollie

Is it really that difficult for these guys to go to class? At a minimum, all they have to do is sit and daydream. Classes are what, 45 - 50 minutes?

Details here. Apparently it's really confusing for them when a coach says something like "don't skip class or else I'll bench you," and then the player skips class and the coach benches him.
 
Re: Boston University 2011-2012 Season Thread Part Deux

Maybe I read too much into this type of stuff. But when I read this about classes, my first tought is that the concept of taking resposability for getting yourself ready to go to class is kind of along the same lines of getting yourself properly prepared to play games.

I really think Parker just wanted to start Rollie against UVM and found a reason to bench Milan.

He doesn't need a reason to start Rollie though. All he has to say is Rollie has earned another start and this is the time to do it. Millan obviously figured Parker wasn't going to check up in it after he was warned which is idiotic.
 
Re: Boston University 2011-2012 Season Thread Part Deux

Didn't he have the players fill out a survey a couple of years ago?

slurpees gets butthurt when anyone mentions parker. you cant expect honesty out of him. it was most recently just last year angry jack did the survey, part of his excuse for kicking glass off the team was that he rated himself too highly among the forwards. oh the horror.



edit: slurpees would check off #8 on the survey. lol.

Doesn't every professor have their own attendance policy? I know my professors had different ones and some never took attendance at all.

Yeah, most do, some departments at BU have their own policies, but I'm guessing the one he violated is a team class attendance policy. I'm in agreement with Parker here, and it's good to see he's holding the kids to the rules with their academics as well.

That's the weird part, no other organization in the world ever has people fill out self assessments. I can't believe he invented this while also coaching a hockey team.

Cut the guy some slack (claver). You can't blame him for wanting to hang out here. Where's he gonna go, the Chestnut Hill Mall?
 
Re: Boston University 2011-2012 Season Thread Part Deux

Here's hoping for (and expecting) a strong effort from the Terriers tonight. I think they will ride high after last weeks thumping of BC.

Did our boys go into the prevent shell in the 3rd? ? ?

A little bit yeah it looked like they switched a bit to the prevent defense. The too many men on the ice penalty with 3 something to go didn't help and made the game feel closer at the end than it really felt for the rest of the game. 2nd Vermont goal was kind of a softie. Seemed like it took the boys a few minutes to get going. All in all a good effort I thought. They got the job done.

Gonna need to step it up a bit tomorrow night.

I'm guessing we will see Millan again tomorrow? (I was surprised to see him dressed... dosen't "benched" usually equal not dressed? ..... although I suppose that definition is different for the goalies).
