For every ₽&¢%ing body!

Gianforcaro to UNC per UNC thread.

Personally I don't care where the next coach went to school; it's not like the Brown alums didn't move on to bigger/better as well! That's coaching. Coaching style matters, but maybe less than in the pre-shot clock era? The clock constrains some of the things a coach can do to win, especially agains...

Brown coach web page still has the AC's listed. Formality I suppose, but you know a new coach will want to pick his (or her) assistants.

Anyone hearing anything? Rumors? Tidbits? No, I'm not tapped in to official or unofficial sources. I suppose the search is on but waiting to see how the playoffs play out. If that's the case, here's a cautionary tale: In 1969 the Patriots were looking for a new head coach, and narrowed the search d...

What would you guess the Brown job is paying? I think most of these coaches are in the 300k range, I could be very wrong. What are the coaches salaries? Is that in pesos? (Thanks, I'm here all week!) Let's look at this another way: for years in the AFC East the aim was to build a team that could be...

The top 4 could or 5 could leave and form their own league. Maybe like the ACC, they could assure themselves of 3 ncaa bids yearly at least. And it would free up their scheduling a bit. And Ivy hockey is weird, ECAC and Ivy leagues for the 6 teams. This is only 1/2 tongue-in-cheek: could the league ...

IL probably has a rule against it. //s

Pretty good considering the relative locations' travel and the fact the host team lost the first night.

Curious abt the Daly hiring without other interviews- simply because Brown implemented his system, more-or-less? And maybe the Molloy/Tufts family connection?

From Patrick Stevens' USA Lax Mag projection article; just a little oddity:

If the eight seeded teams in the final projection are correct — in whatever order — it means all of the at-large selections will play at home and every automatic qualifier will be unseeded. Just an unusual quirk.

I'm not sure who would grab that last at-large over Penn, to be honest. They certainly have a deserving resume.

He posed the issue as Penn/Penn State

Terry Foy has Penn in, FWIW.

Congrats to Tigers. Really playing well. Ivy down faceoffs this year, esp after Yale's injuries, so it's hard to judge McMeekin from this tourney, but if P'ton's guy can get to 55% in the big tourney, with that offense, look out! Two 2 min unreleasables tough for Penn to overcome- not just the resul...

A broadcast team talking delis, chicken parm sandwiches, traffic, workout routines, haircuts!!! is different from not keeping track of other pertinent games.

There's 2 games currently besides the game in Ithaca determining spots and not one mention/score updates from the Ivy crew. And good games. Not national champ threat teams, but come on. Might be production crew issue and not the talking heads, to be fair. Well, back to the IL website to check scores...

OK, my buddy has been harping at me about a MAJOR CONSPIRACY theory he has, (and just not for LAX), but his theory is that when their is a conference championship and let's say it's 4 teams, with 3 that have already LOCKED up bids, that conferences figure they can now get ALL 4 in by allowing the t...

I guess outside of "what the *&$# is the committee thinking?!?!" this evening the field is pretty set, not including seedings- maybe 2 Ivies, prolly 1 . So, any bracketologists want to play "what if"? Just 2 changes to the year's outcomes: Maryland loses to Brown. Virginia lo...

End of the month? How much due diligence can they do if FF coaches are on the list? (ACs in that case of course.)
Thorough investigation vs don't let our guy get plucked by someone else, I guess.

It's early, but the women's team looks to have made a good choice. for the men.

Entenmann is freaking ridiculous… He has made at least 5 or 6 saves that are easily going on any other goalie in the country. Has made it impossible for UVA to even attempt a comeback. Best player in the country. He should win, and has earned Tewaaraton. At this stage, Entenmann seems like the only...
