I disagree - having spoken with the Colonel on several occasions, I think he is very on top of things. I know for a fact that he's well aware of the world of D1 and Jr. hockey -- as his boys have been and are in the middle of it. I have no doubt he is doing what he needs to do, given the circumstances he's been dealt.

It's a pointless exercise. Just because he's interviewing somewhere doesn't mean we need to find a list of people we'd hire to replace him.

Why not just do this every year, then? Matter of fact IF Seth leaves and we hire someone else, perhaps we need a list of people to replace HIM too.

Worry about the IFs later.

Just because you don't like it, doesn't make it pointless. The fact is Seth is on the short list for a new job. Its human nature to think and speculate as to who might make a suitable replacement...the very same exercise that the Colonel is no doubt well down the road on.

It's not that I "don't like it." It's just pointless, for the reason I already elaborated upon.

OK, Colonel. :rolleyes:

See you 'round, I need to start coming up with my list of people to replace Quinn at BU in case he leaves.

Chairman of all Things Worthy of Unworthy: That'd be a super-duper analogy , if Quinn were actually a candidate for a job other than the one he currently holds. Yer better than that.

So, when a gubernatorial recall election needs to take place, it is pointless to campaign as the potential successive governor because the guy hasn't been officially recalled yet?

You're allowed to be obtuse if you think you run the boards. ;)

Tom, who's going to replace you and keep everyone in check?

How do you know he's not? Just because no one's mentioned his name?

I mean, if you're going to play what if, go all the way.

Gotta go, I need to start coming up with contingency plans in case the Field House gets hit by a failing Japanese satellite falling out of orbit.

Seth is being interviewed as a courtesy. He still needs to keep cutting his teeth. No doubt Denver is looking elsewhere. Why would Denver hire a protege of the man they just fired? Especially one that has had limited success.
SA needs a couple strong seasons before he beats feet from the collar city

I have considered that possibility too. If this would happen a few years from now (after we win the 2016 NCAA championship), it would make more sense. The problem is that we don't know everything that has happened.

Has anyone considered the possibility that Red Cloud doesn't want us speculating about who will be SA's replacement at RPI because he himself wants to apply? ;)
