Harrington must have some connection with the women's game, because he was at the WCHA tournament, hanging with the officials, coaches, and league brass. Strictly men's coaches off of the street don't typically do that.
The Clarkson co-coaches have visited tOSU for an interview. They may be the other two.
That's an intriguing rumor. What coaches with the experience of these two and a bit of success wouldn't want to take the reigns of a team with the potential of the Buckeyes in the most successful, powerful and superior conference in the women's hockey universe?
I don't qualify as a staunch supporter of the Husky women's hockey team or St. Cloud State U in general, I just have a simple belief, or theory if you prefer that the staff needs to win more of those recruiting battles among those Minnesota players that are being lured to Eastern programs...some of them at least, in order to have any hope of competing with the top of the conference. They'll never win all those recruiting battles but need to win a few more than they have in recent years. Need it fairly desperately to catch up IMO. ARM makes a good point in that it isn't just a matter of competition with Eastern programs either. They need to do better when competing for Minnesota recruits with the rest of the WCHA too. They've got some ground to cover in getting back to being more competitive. If you're having trouble selling your program to the local kid ya better focus some attention on the AAA type players from outside the state as well...but you really should be able to sell more local kids on playing for the Huskies...Huskies...Huskies, IMO.
ARM probably has a good grip on the reality on the SCSU coaching picture...at least in the immediate future. I think you and I are on the same page regarding the person currently at the helm. I would like nothing better than to see the current staff get it together and turn the program around with some much improved recruiting success. I think the program, school and city have enough to offer to sway some top local talent in their direction. The thing I don't know is what kind of scholarship offers are the local studs considering inadequate as compared to other offers they're receiving. Assuming of course that's is a prime reason for the decision for some...at least.
Wow, shocking right hand turn. I didn't see that name coming. If true, I think he will do well. I was always amazed with his recruiting classes. He was able to bring some decent kids to RMU.
