Re: The Greatest Programs of All-Time: #1-#59

Thanks for completing it. A couple takeaways:

- Huge gap between #8 (MSU) and #7 (Wisconsin). Looks like none of the top 7 will slip to #8 for a long time.
- BU and BC are very close, and could swap back and forth for years to come...
 
Re: The Greatest Programs of All-Time: #1-#59

Just caught up :o
Providence and BU just gigantic jumps.
Guess my Pioneers will have to make the title game this year to knock BU/BC down.

drshoen, thanks for helping. Now that FS23 is a member of the Bar*...well, his priorities have changed. :rolleyes: :D

*for many/some/a few "spending all his time at the bar" might be more appropriate ;);)

Been some time back and I did not look, again, frankly. Somebody took umbrage with it, though. I assume one of the aforementioned parties?
Why would anyone care that you predicted UNO would finish 37-39? They took umbrage at your comment that UNO should be ranked ahead of Ohio State despite having no justification for it except for blind homerism. But hey, now you have proved all of those people wrong that didn't think UNO wasn't one of the 39 best college hockey programs.
 
Re: The Greatest Programs of All-Time: #1-#59

#31 Quinnipiac Bobcats

Total: 28.20371
1 year change: +3.0019
5 year change: +24.30931
Last year: #31

The Bobcats have been to the ECAC Final Four each of the last 3 seasons, and lost to Yale in the 2012-13 final game; they have lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament the last 2 seasons. Quinnipiac has never finished below .500 as a Division I program.

sounds like the only reason they are not ranked higher is not enough longevity in Division I ??

Mea culpa. I never took the time to go back and look at who said what other than someone took issue with it, but, you are correct about the OSU angle, I now recall. I should have looked.

At least Red Mavs are no longer 45th. That had to be one of the biggest jumps on the entire list.

For a program entering it's 19th year of existence, that had really done very little until the past 5 years or so, at least the ship is sailing in the right direction.
 
Re: The Greatest Programs of All-Time: #1-#59

question for the ranking maker, how exactly did Michigan Tech have the 31st best season of anyone this year? Including being worse than Michigan, Union, Brown, Vermont, Clarkson, Merrimack, Dartmouth, and Bowling Green?

That...and the have only one MAAC tournament title. Compare them to Union to see what a few league tournament titles and an NCAA title will do for a team.
