Re: Brown - Oops! They did it again.
I think this bears repeating.
And I will add most reputable coaches will clean house when coming into a troubled program. And word will get back as to who is causing the turmoil, as there are no real secrets in the hockey world. Many coaches will sacrifice talent on the ice, for harmony in the locker room and front office without blinking an eye.
I wish you well when your daughters come home crying because they were cut from the new coach's team. And I hope you have the decency to admit to your culpability.

Re: Brown - Oops! They did it again.
Reading your posts makes me think of a trip long ago to Clarkson with a team that my son was playing on. Erik Cole, from our hometown, was playing for Clarkson at the time and arranged for the coach to give the kids, parents too, a tour of the hockey facilities. In terms of recruiting, he talked about how coaches recruit not just players, but families as well and spoke of one player that they really, really wanted to recruit but, unfortunately, the father was a major league *****hole. As he said, the last thing he needed was parents, who most likely had never achieved any athletic success in their own lives, hanging over the glass and telling him how to coach. The kid went to Ohio State and the coach said that wasn't far enough. Your daughter may be a great kid but just like the former Clarkson coach, if I were aware of your constant backseat driving, sniping, whining, etc., etc., that you have exhibited on this forum (Ontario too, right?), your daughter would have a big black line through her name for no fault of her own.

If this is the case, then one could say that the current players have a better chance of playing all four years than they do playing for the current coaching staff.

I was told along time ago that coaches don't just scout/recruit the players but the parents as well.

Re: Brown - Oops! They did it again.
Wow - this thread is like "Groundhog Day" - it keeps repeating itself after almost every loss. These parents just can't be aware of how harmful that this kind of negativity is to a program. I'm more in tune to the men's program so i'm not aware of all the issues....but I have daughters who play and I can tell you i'd be very suspect of having them consider Brown (if they turn out to be smart/talented enough) in this type of atmosphere.
I can only imagine what parents who don't have as strong a connection to Brown must be thinking when Digit and Coady are pursuing their daughters.

Re: Brown - Oops! They did it again.
Well what do you know, it is Ground Hog day as of an hour and a half ago (ET)
I'm pretty sure that those that come on here to air the laundry, are not current players or their parents, but those that may have left or been asked to leave. Either way, the discussion seems to be on a permanent loop, it just keeps coming around.

A timely term.
We can term this thread the "Ground Hog" energizer bunny. Keeps coming back out of the hole time and time again.

But it seems like we are playing "Whack-a-mole" here. Rodents are rodents, I guess.

And did a freshman appear from the locker room to the apex of the mound of Brown to see her shadow?

Well six more weeks would also mean making the playoffs
I hope not!!! Wouldn't that mean six more weeks of losses?

Re: Brown - Oops! They did it again.
Well, actually there are only six league games remaining - If they won all of their 6 games and Yale lost all 6 they would lose head to head to Yale even if Dartmouth and Colgate lost all their games too.
ECAC Standings
Team ECAC Record Points Possible points(6 games remaining)
Clarkson 13-2-1 27 --39
Cornell 9-2-5 23 --35
Harvard 9-5-2 20 --32
Princeton 8-4-4 20 --32
Rensselaer 8-4-4 20 --32
St. Lawrence 8-5-3 19--31
Quinnipiac 7-4-5 19 --31
Yale 7-8-1 15 --27
Colgate 4-8-4 12 --24
Dartmouth 5-10-1 11 --23
-----eliminated from finishing above 8--
Brown 0-13-3 3 --15
Union 1-14-1 3 --15
Of course Brown could be a big time spoiler for home ice and rankings - so they still may have some influence in the standings

clearly not...Re: Brown - Oops! They did it again.
Well, since so many kids quit or get cut they're always a young team, that's not really a positive.
