SNC Off Season Thread

Re: SNC Off Season Thread

Don't think that this point has been mentioned about this seasons senior class...averaged better than a 3.0 as a group...several over 3.5.
Congrats to all!!!

Word is out that the Green Knights will be getting a d-1 trasfer from the CCHA between the pipes.

They are putting a great deal together for him. Sounds a lot like the same deal that Obrien got.

The rich get richer. The Yankees of D-3 hockey!

Same route as O'Brien, who transferred from St. Cloud State, after his freshman year.
Skudder was also a D-1 Goalie transfer (from Ferris State).

B.J. came to SNC to be on the golf team. I thought that was common knowledge.

Ask OB why he came to SNC. It was not for the education and was not because it cost him 20 k like most players pay as most pirvate colleges.

Lets just say he did not pay much at SNC, and he was not a 4.0 coming in.

It is great that SNC has such outstanding academic awards and that a marginal student trasfering from a marginal d-1 academic school, could get such a great academic award.

Good for them, but I wonder how many 3.0 or below kids at SNC are getting the same academic money as OB got? Not many. You can be sure of that. If that was the case the College would be out of money!

Your innuendoes are getting old. If you have proof submit to the NCAA. They have been checking very closely on lots of DIII financial aid issues. See what happened to Buffalo State and Genesseo, and is going on with UNE and Potsdam in hockey this year, and Castleton this year in FB. If you've got evidence, the NCAA will investigate.

I remember "Skudder" when he played for us in Big Rapids. Good tender, then. We just didn't have anything in front of him at all. I didn't blame him for leaving.

I'm sure you have access to the entirety of the financial aid records of every SNC student for the last so many years. I'm sure the NCAA will be impressed. Your obsession is laughable.

If anyone has a complaint/concern about how an NCAA athletic program is run, they don't need the nitty gritty. All they need when they drop the dime to the NCAA is some of the facts. The inquiry/investigation will do the due diligence to prove/disprove the allegations.

Please note that the above does NOT apply to the Southeastern Conference's football programs.

Or does it guarantee that the punishment will fit the crime if it cost the NCAA money as in tOSU's football debacle

tOSU = B1G; Auburn = SEC. You can punish tOSU. Auburn escapes with a slap on the helmet.

They didn't punish tOSU until after the season was over. They should have started those suspensions with the Bowl game, not at the start of the season. Admittedly, Auburn got even less.

The NCAA's punishments are a joke when it comes to bigtime college football programs. The fact that half the Auburn team was eligible for the NC game after the grade fiasco was a joke as well as the fact those Ohio State suspensions didn't start until after the bowl game was played.

I think SMU would agree with you.
 
Re: SNC Off Season Thread

I believe it was 1987 or so. SMU was blatant about what they did, even after they got probation the first time.

Yes SMU was blatant. But no more blatant than many other schools of that era. There are many, many examples. Auburns "grade fiasco" along with Cam Newton's dad "shopping" him around were also blatant. It is widely believed that the NCAA will no longer use the "death penalty" again because of the impact it would have on a major college sports program.

Exactly. No major college program will ever suffer the death penalty. However, some backwater program that never makes it on any of the E$PN networks will be eviscerated and nobody will notice (or care).

But to get back on the topic on SNC....
Will 2011-12 be a mirror of 2008-09??
