OK, my bad. You weren't in St. Paul this past April though. I think that there were a few goopher fans around but I didn't see any on the ice. To my surprise the UMD fans that I encountered were actuially decent. They were absolutely thrilled as they should be.

And yea, we have more than you so....

Re: The Greatest Programs of All-Time: #1 - #60

Hey, FS23, are you only going to end each entry with Last Year's Ranking only if there is a change this year? I noticed that line was included at the end of all last year's entries.

Anyway, I always enjoy this thread, along with FlagDUDE's scheduling thread, to stay engaged during the offseason. Many thanks!

Thanks for the kind words. I wasn't planning on putting in the change. I believe there have already been a couple changes (Mercyhurst and Holy Cross swapped places). Personally, I find the trends more interesting than the change in overall placement; however, maybe I can put together the full list at the end with each program's change in placement.
 
Re: The Greatest Programs of All-Time: #1 - #60

I appreciate your work too FS23, especially because Michigan should regain the top spot.

Thanks.

FS23 can run the numbers, but he can't created time travel and return you to 1962.

You're right, they did. I should have used '64, but that's like distinguishing between the bronze age and the iron age. Michigan was definitely at its peak then, but they've won only two since. Three other Michigan schools have won as many or more banners since then. Hard to believe with the school's assets, the development program, and that recruiting base so close by.

Gotta be the helmets,

Come back in a few weeks....

Michigan was at the Frozen Four in April. NoDik wasn't, they didn't even make the tournament. Who is going to be ahead of Michigan? No one that was ahead of them in FS23's rankings beat them last year. How can they not go back into #1? NoDik wasn't that far ahead of them, surely a National Semi-Final appearance will put them past NoDik who (not sure if I mentioned this) DIDN'T EVEN MAKE THE TOURNAMENT.

Sad times when Michigan fans use a Frozen Four appearance as some sort of way to gloat. I guess it makes sense since their team hasn’t won a title in a long time. They better raise a participation banner to the rafters at Yost.

No one has ever accused North Dakota fans of being intelligent (FS23 notwithstanding). He looks like a Shirley, or maybe a Cindy on a good day.

I have often accused North Dakota fans of being intelligent, and I have yet to be proven wrong.

Good looking too. And generous.

And blessed with good humor.
