Boston University 2012-13 Season Thread -- Up To The Task?

Not open for further replies.
Poti and Pando were out of the league last year as was Meyer I believe. Correct about Whitney, so make it 4 guys getting regular time who weren't on that one team.

Pando was out two yrs ago, but came back and made the isles.

Poti, like Ricky, was injured (groin injury, a g-g-g groin injury)

I was wondering about Poti as it didn't seem his career should be done at this point. Hopefully he makes it back.

From now on can you add "according to the player"

You raise a good point. "Allegedly" is becoming a common word in the BU threads lately, huh? Fits right in there with the "culture" word that pops up all over the thread as well.

OMG!!! Nick, weren't those games in MI?!? If Jerry obstructed justice there you should consider yourself lucky that there is no chance a MSU grad would be working for the DA!!!

WHOOPS

WHOOPS

I thought the Motherwell / O'Hanley incident occurred in MN.
 
Re: Boston University 2012-13 Season Thread -- Up To The Task?

I can't recall... Did Mary run an exposé in the globe of how Jerry obstructed justice when he booted players and claimed it was internal? Did the DA investigate? (Either middlesex or Norfolk since chestnut hill is in a different county). Seems like a nice fast track to news headlines and the governsor's office.

People being charged with crimes and appearing in court are a matter of public record, no? That leads to the vultures known as reporters. If what happened at BU last year happened with BC, you would have seen the same level of reporting on it.

AH HA!!!

Thank you.
BU reported the alleged crimes to the authorities. Jerry didn't an obstructed justice!!

Just as JoePa and Nixon. The cover up is always worse than the crime :D

Would it be too late for BU to use whatever freed up scholarship money there is now to try and get someone for next semester? Just curious more than anything. Not sure how the whole between semesters stuff works.

Yes, it would be too late. The NC$$ doesn't allow a scholarship to be transferred to a new recruit from a another recruit who has relinquisked it during the same school year. Perhaps you can envision what some unscrupulous coaches would do to their "recruiting mistakes" before the end of the first semester in order to replace them with another recruit who would start during the second (post December) semester.

Incidentally, when was the last parker team that ended the season with the same personel that it began the season with? There seems to be something or someone who isn't there at the end

I wonder what "cal" has to say on the issue. Seems to me Yasin's been pretty unhappy at BU for a while now. This kid clearly has had a rough go of it in the luck category and while Terriers fans will discard him like a glowstick that doesn't glow anymore (or the way a puckbunny gets discarded on an early Sunday morning by a BU hockey player), he should be given a stick salute for working hard to rehab from these injuries so Jack Parker could "humiliate" him.

One would hate to think that after a rough game on Saturday night and his ill-timed penalty, Parker might have done something else to "humiliate" him this week and it was the straw that broke the camel's back. Pure conjecture of course.

I hate seeing these guys leave. Months of stalking wasted. Pity.


Cisse was "humiliated" by being played on the first line and given time on the power play. Even though he wasn't producing any points. Wow, that sure is "humiliating."

What is "humiliating" is writing such an idiotic post.

Cisse was given every chance. He was frustrated because he wasn't producing on the ice. Who knows if he was happy as a student or living in Boston?

He is a big body, a good skater and he showed flashes that he could be a very good player. He had, and has, potential. But it wasn't happening here, despite getting multiple chances.

Of course, it would better for the team if he saw out the 2012-13 season and school year through, and then made a decision. But he obviously felt it wasn't going to happen here.

Despite his extremely low point total, his plus/minus showed that at least he wasn't a negative on the ice. Don't like the fact that he left now, but still wish him well on reaching that potential somewhere else.
Right now, the chances are he will toil in the ECHL or overseas down-the-road.

Cisse is a below average to average at best skater who takes dumb penalties and can't score. I don't see the potential.

Post lockout we could see a push to bring back fighting (steroid HR lite). Cisse is a big guy who may excell in a physical game

For once I agree. Cisse had potential before he actually started playing in the games. A simple review of his time at BU ought to give whoever thinks of signing him all they need to know.

That time of the month?

Read ahead a little bit. You probably missed something.
