Re: Clarkson coaching search
I'm curious why the USA hockey personnel are not satisfied with their current positions.

I am sure Rolly is the favorite. I too am shocked at how slow this whole process has moved. There are also some assistant coaching positions open...Princeton (2), Providence (1), Union (1). They need to hire a current head guy or an associate. This program has been a mess since they framed Mark Morris![]()
SLU also has an opening for Asst coach with the departure of Bobby Prier.

According to USAH's tax filing, RR made a bit north of $114K in direct and a bit north of $28K in indirect compensation.Money makes people funny.![]()
Hockeymascot.......then why not bring Mark Morris back? Has enough of the air-head administration that "wasted" him left Clarkson. (I wouldn't blame Mark for a moment if
he'd laugh in their face if they approached him......isn't he already in a better place?)
I don't know if the brass at Clarkson have enough brass to bring Mark back. Maybe it isn't brass they would need, it would be intelligence. The Clarkson hockey program has been fractured since he left. The admin did not look good when they did not support Mark during the framing fiasco. Now you have the current admin giving George a verbal green light and then taking his legs out at the last hour.
In my opinion, the admin could save some face by doing the right thing and at least asking Morris if he would be interested in coming back. Heck he might even accept, although he is in a better place now. However, he has been living away from his home, and his wife is about to become Judge in Massena, therefore she is not going anywhere.
It doesn't seem like Clarkson is very efficient in their hiring process, let alone exercising any sense of intelligence within the admin.![]()
RPI found a coach. The Fridge had a 20+ season win followed by 2 losing season's in a row and you blew him out. So, get over the amnesia. Job security? Well that is called a contract, get it?
Frank Anzalone brings so much to the table. Won 1 and responsible for 2 NCAA championships, coached professional hockey, junior hockey, the guy has done it all and has the respect of his peers and his players.
If Clarkson wants a proven winner, they know the right choice, Frank Anzalone.
Did you check Anzalone's record in his more recent foray into college hockey?

I believe it to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 32-97 (.315)...in his 2nd run at LSSU. Add to that he is 67 yrs. old and has spent the last 4 seasons in the hockey hot beds of Johnstown and Quad City and I'm not seeing how that translates into results in the ECAC...![]()
Looks like we have the two finalists as they are the only ones coming to Potsdam to interview.....
Ron Rolston - yesterday
Casey Jones - tomorrow
What would happen if they both turn it down??
