Clarkson coaching search

1. I may be wrong, but, I don't think you whittle it down to two guys to find out they are not interested...It is not like Potsdam is around the corner and these guys just happen to swing by for a peek...make no mistake they are interested.

2. Turn it down?? If these are "the" guys, offer more money.....put up or shut up.

Let's move on and Let's Go Tech!

Frank Anzalone built a small college into a national contender with winning an NCAA Championship in 1988 and his players responsible for the 1992 title and laying the foundation for another one in 1994.

He was on his way to building the program back in his second stint, one that had been gutted since he left and after Jackson left. Ambition and politics got in the way of that because Lake Superior State would be back on top if Frank Anzalone was still there.

I hope Clarkson makes the right offer, the choice is obvious if you want a winner, it is Frank Anzalone.
 
Re: Clarkson coaching search

Apparently they offered the job to former player and Clagary Flame Craig Conroy and he turned it down. I never even heard his named mentioned as a possible candidate. I love Conroy, but I'd like to see them take somebody with some coaching experience. Personally I'd love to see Morris come back and if not Mark then Rolston would be a great selection.

I hope Rolston with no regrets, he is a future legendary college coach for whoever gets him to be HC.
 
Re: Clarkson coaching search

You left out Frank Anzalone on the offered, but declined. Wasn't the right fit for Frank and there are bigger and better things ahead for the coaching legend.

Thanks to the folks at Clarkson for the offer and best of luck in the future.

I used to think so...but if it is they have kept it going for a while. And there are actually 2 people (truth squad and truth serem) who post pretty much the same stuff over and over. Greatest part is that they accuse anyone who doesnt show blind loyalty to Frank of being a hater and that we must all love the current coach (who all but like 2 posters have said should have been fired long ago). Their brand of crazy used to be isolated to the current and previous lake state threads. Sorry you have had to witness this awful trolling. It is kind of funny thought to hear them repeat over and over that a team that never won more than 9 games in a season for 4 straight years would somehow be on top again if Frank would not have been fired.

If it's "truth (5-letter-word)"... don't you get the idea that it's the same person?

Oh yeah, Im convinced it is. Its just funny that they would make 2 names so similar and with the same exact arguments. They arent very bright.
 
Re: Clarkson coaching search

Truthsquad......unfortunately, I know too much "behind the scenes" stuff that Crazy Frank has done and there's no way I'd want my kind to play for him. He has had serious "issues" everywhere he's gone and is a ticking timebomb. He is marginal at the minor pro level, but shouldn't be allowed to coach at the D1 college level again. He knows his X's & O's as long as he doesn't lose it on the bench. I'm happy he won't be coaching at my alma mater!!!
 
Re: Clarkson coaching search

Hey Mr Truth, if Frank is such a great coach and great guy, why did Cappy fire him at PeeDee 13 games into the season after he went 47-18-5? And don't say it was because Capuano didn't know what he was doing. Capuano won 51 games the season before he brought Frank in.

This guy has no idea what he is talking about. He is the worst sports columnist up in that area. He reads these boards and puts what he finds from rumors in his articles. What a joke! Also Frank Anzalone won those National Titles when there weren't any rules for recruiting. Has had a hard time keeping up with the changes to the hockey culture if you asked me. Clarkson needs someone who is going to come in and be able to win right out of the gate. Morris is the one guy who could probably do that!

All that would make a better argument if things I put up had not come before people on message boards started talking about them ;)
 
Re: Clarkson coaching search

It is said that Morris is still interested. I mean come on...his hometown and family are twenty minutes away from the Clarkson Campus.

Casey's been a fantastic recruiter since coming back to Cornell -- our next recruiting class has been described by Schafer as the best he's ever had. I'm sorry to see him go and Clarkson's getting a good one.

Great hire IMHO. I think Ohio State needed a complete change in philosophy when they hired Mark Osiecki (and I'm glad they did) but Casey is a class act and I would not have been disappointed if he had been the choice. Great guy.
 
Re: Clarkson coaching search

Great choice. High energy and knows the lay of the land. Get ready for some incoming talent!
