I don't know how else you'd mention it? Outside of counting down instead, saying two or three or four is the natural progression. This is a kid who turned down the USHL to be with his brother, I highly doubt he's going to leave Cambridge too soon unless someone offers him a starting NHL role.
Good article on Reilly Walsh:

Jace Foskey commits to Harvard. Defenseman out of Tri City of the USHL. Expected to come in 2018 alongside Bode Wilde and Jack Rathbone
On the very down side for us.........it appears Kyle Hayton, our second team All American goalie is leaving SLU for Wisconsin. Leaving in his senior year. Still a lot of unknowns like will he finish his degree and transfer as a grad student or have to sit out a year. Either way it is a huge blow for us at SLU to lose a goalie of his caliber.
The "why" is the $64,000 question!!! We've heard nothing for certain other than rumors. So if you are into listening the rumors they run the gamut from not liking the coach, the coach being aloof, coach not being "present". Morris sort of had/has a reputation of not having very much patience with goalies. Also heard a story that Kyle was injured and healing (or sick)....went to the coach before the game and asked to sit out..........coach ignored it and he got lit up like a Christmas tree.Why? Is this an indictment of the new coach? Not like the Badgers are a shoe in next year.

Lot of scuttlebutt floating around but it's all that. We are also hearing he is overhauling the team and has told some players they are not welcome back. Sounds like a huge personality conflict to me and things are going to get way worse before they get better. It's Morris team now......he can do what he wants........but dollars to donuts Joe Marsh or even Greg Carvel would never pull off the stuff we "hear" is going on. Again........mostly rumors at this point except Haytons leaving is way past the rumor stage. It's happening.

On Morris. Didn't he have some kind of run in with a player while he was at Clarkson?.......
Nice article on Ryan Donato who is in the Bruins Development Camp along with Wiley Sherman. Found it interesting when the author of the article brought up how many development camps Ryan would go through before joining the Bruins if he stays four years at Harvard. Ryan didn't seem all that pleased with the number. Makes me think he'll be gone after next season.

A well written piece on the whole situation by Adam Wodon:
http://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2003/08/06_morris.php
If his sophmore to junior trajectory is the same as his frosh to sophomore trajectory, he is definitely gone. I think we should expect it. I may have blinders on, but he has to be the likely front-runner for ECAC POY
I came away with more questions than answers from this piece. Yes it was well written but the writer seemed to backtrack every time he put Morris under the microscope. And there is no doubt he has a problem handling goalies which plays into the Hayton situation. If I were SLU, I would be more concerned about the "issues" mentioned in the article. Morris can't afford to 'lose the room' this early in his tenure and he seems to be headed in that direction with the loss of Hayton.
