Re: UND Players finding new schools
A guess that I have on this one would be Katie Mikkelson going from Ohio State to University of Guelph.
What school / coach?

Thx. It's not so easy here in the east keeping up with off-season matters other than UND.

Re: UND Players finding new schools
I don't mean to state the obvious here but it seems Canadian Universities are really gaining ground through commits and transfers. I know there was some discussion on another thread a while back about the rise of these programs now that the funding has improved. Are we slowly seeing a sea change that will reduce Canadians playing for US schools?

After playing 32 games with 15 pts (10/5) her freshman year, she played just the first 7 games this past season, 0 pts.

I believe that this was an injury, not a coaches decision. The myriad Harvard fans could validate over on their thread...

Rather than start another thread I decided to throw this here. Brielle Bellerive of Clarkson decides to leave and finish her schooling and hockey career in her home town.

Re: UND Players finding new schools
Which D is transferring out? I had not heard anything about us having another D transfer out.
Interesting. 14 forwards at OSU next year. With a D transferring out and another that could be centralized I wonder if some of the forwards can play defense?

Re: UND Players finding new schools
Canada has a 5 year eligibility. NCAA has 4. If a player transfers back to Canada after playing 3 years in the NCAA, they still maintain 2 years of Canadian eligibility. Saw this last year with a couple Ohio State players. Not a bad gig for a player to finish her degree in 3 years and transfer to a Canadian school to do a masters and play hockey. Especially if they are not getting a lot of playing time.

Mikkelsen was a freshman, does this mean that she has 4 year's eligibility in Canada?

Ashton Bell to Duluth
Duluth must be making changes to their current roster or de committing to incoming recruits with the recent additions of Bell and Houston.
Re: UND Players finding new schools
Not just Duluth. Happening at a number of other schools. Players being cut outright or removal of scholarships to help nudge out.
Even heard Ohio State is having tryouts in August to make cuts.
Its one of the issues with schools committing players earlier and earlier. Only way to make room is to either cut or de commit.

Tryouts in August?! Might be just a total violation of NCAA rules but go ahead and believe what you heard.
Re: UND Players finding new schools
Forgive me for the newbie question (my daughter plays D3): how do scholarships work? I thought once a school commits to a player then they're on the hook for the full 4 years regardless?

Re: UND Players finding new schools
Don't know if things have changed (others here should know) but 10 years ago scholarships were for one year at a time even though the misconception existed that they were for 4 years. They were mostly renewed every year for the 3 following years unless the student/athlete did something to derail the process.
Once the NLI (National Letter of Intent) was signed the school was committed and could not "decommit". But that doesn't stop some programs from attempting to persuade the student/athlete in certain circumstances to commit to something in writing that would give the program a loophole to cut the student/athlete loose, as unethical and despicable as it may be.
