Michigan Tech Offseason 2014: Nothing To Say

Re: Michigan Tech Offseason 2014: Nothing To Say

Red Wing bloggers not complementary of David Johnstone.
Said they were waiting to see his crazy good hands, but it did not materialize.
Also said he had a lot of speed, but overmatched by the pro game.

Don't listen, put up 50 points this year and there will be plenty of interest.
 
Re: Michigan Tech Offseason 2014: Nothing To Say

Hyperbolic bloggers are hyperbolic bloggers. He's a good, solid all-around prospect that will need to spend time in the minors to learn the pro game, which can be said each year for just about any decent undrafted NCAA player. I wouldn't use "crazy good" to describe any aspect of his skills or play.

Pretty sure? Come on spill it

I honestly can't get any more information than I've stated. I'm pretty sure the decision has been made but I have no idea who the new coach is yet. I'll post as soon as I find out.

I've exhausted many of my outside sources...they've heard less than huskyfan.

I think the reveal may be a surprise, but when Tech fans look at the big picture, they'll be quite pleased. Will fill some needs & actually be an upgrade.

The statement seems generic enough that anyone could make it without knowing anything. (On the other hand, it seems specific enough to make me wonder whether Mel might have rebuilt the Cam Ellsworth bridge...)
About the only thing I can guarantee is that Cam Ellsworth is not the hire.

actually tMel is going to hire all of us on the board and take all our advice. :)

If what I'm hearing is right, you've perfectly described how I feel about it.

Interesting...that's exactly how I would feel if Mel hired Tim Watters. While he didn't pan out as a D1 head coach, he'd be a great assistant to coach defense and bolster recruiting given his NHL ties and alumni status. I believe Mel & Tim played together at Tech (at the same time). I wonder what Mr. Watters is up to these days.

Last I checked, living in Arizona...remember Mel talked about getting an outside voice so it's not likely to be someone with a Michigan/Michigan Tech direct connection.
