Re: Jim Fetter

Kinda surprised he didn't end up with the Brown job, if not one of the earlier HC openings. But good for St. Cloud.

Apparently Brown has a very stringent requirement that candidates have Ivy League recruiting experience.

Not to mention...the stringent requirements with respect to gender...

Well...I think SCSU can definitely use the help...and what he can bring to the program.

Why do you insist on making statements that are incorrect and trying to pass the off as "facts"? You have a role associated with an organization in women's hockey. You should not be putting out incorrect information as "fact" when it is not!

I don't know if what Hux said is fact or not, but you didnt provide any more proof that what he said isn't fact than he did that it is....so please explain to us why we should believe you and not him? At this point both of your posts provide no substance to verify the opinion behind them, but I'd love to have some real facts one way or the other...

In defense of HUX here, pointing out he starts his comment with "Apparently", and secondly given the institution in question, it is a reasonable expectation/qualification requirement even if it is not stated per se in the actual add for the position.

Re: Jim Fetter

Maybe we could start by defining exactly what Ivy League recruiting experience is. Why is it any different than any other recruiting experience? If I look at the recent records of the vast majority of the Ivy's I guess one might question if any of them, save Cornell have a corner on any type of superior recruiting technique....

the admissions process is extremely different....i dont know exactly how all the details work out, but basically if you have a borderline ivy academic player that you want to get in, the players applications that you submit to admissions as a group have to reach certain benchmarks for that player to have a chance.

I was curious about this statement and randomly looked at the head coach bios of four Brown teams and none of them had ivy experience prior to Brown.

Re: Jim Fetter

Is it possible the comment was regarding an informal, unwritten yet desired criteria or qualification the AD looks for in a prospective coaching candidate at Brown? Just asking. It seems plausible to me there could be some hurdles Ivy coaches may have to navigate that staffs of non Ivy programs aren't faced with.

Would have thought that it is fairly common knowledge that the process and rules and regulations for admission into an Ivy are quite a bit different than those for a scholly school. There are no scholaships, high admission standards and a rigorous admission process. Not a lot of athletes can walk straight into an Ivy through the front door without the support of the coach.

Suppose. But in getting back to the original post....when I think of recruiting, I think of hockey talent.
