    Absolutely. That's the ONLY option I see to get on the winning track (and that would take 3-4 years I think just to get consistently at or over .500) and somewhat please a fan base that has eroded to the point where there will be like 3,000 people in the stands this coming season

      Looks like Burish, Gilbert, McMurchy and more (guys who played for Eaves and guys who played for Johnson or Sauer) need to march into the AD department and this time offer their heartfelt opinions that Eaves has to go or the AD can expect them to stop donating time and money to Wisconsin Hockey, period.

      I'll say it now. I'd take Jeff Sauer over Eaves today w/out even having to ponder it for a second.

        Adam Miller is my guess. Gabe Grunwald would be the other option.

          Grunwald would be the starting goaltender.

            I was thinking they should go with the best goalie, then I remembered that it really isn't going to matter who's in net. Just rotate them, get them both experience and see what they can do in under game pressure.

            This situation is exactly why you have no choice but to fire the whole coaching staff after a 4 win season.

                Winning 4 this season may be pie-in-the-sky at this point.


                As much as this fiasco is on Eaves, and it is, it's more so on the AD who has been asleep at the wheel.

                Just paying a slight bit of attention to a sport that at one point could at least probably support itself could/would have headed off what now will likely be a lengthy rebuilding process on the ice and a lengthier rebuilding process in the stands.

                  I mean, this is scorched earth stuff now.

                  Even if you bring a new coach in tomorrow, his recruits won't even be on campus for 2-4 years.


                  **** off Barry.

                    Can you or somebody post the emails we should bomb? I have no shame and will send them to everybody, and will email them every single day from my 3 email accounts. **** it. As you say, this is scorched earth territory. And I was always an Eaves advocate.

                        I'd like to think that a new coach will be able to get more from the average players than Eaves, but I'm not sure that any average players will even be left in a season.

                        I feel bad for any fools who decided to renew their tickets, this is going to be one very LONG depressing season.

                          At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

                            Start here......Jason W. King [JWK@athletics.wisc.edu] He's the assistant AD in charge of both men's and women's hockey. They don't list BA's email on the UW site, or not at least since I looked for it last year. The other bad thing is now the focus is on finding a BB coach, this will push hockey even further into the deep dark back corner's of BA's mind. It going to be a blast watching the power struggle between Bo and BA over Gard.

                              I am one of those. Gave up Friday, but kept Saturday. This year is going to suck huge.

                                BA will hopefully be exposed for what he is during the process to replace Bo. People need to forget about him being the football coach and look at what he has done during his current job. His pride and joy program has had 2 coaches leave in the middle of the night during the season in the last 3 years.

                                I don't blame the goalie kid for bolting to the OHL. He needs to look out for himself, I feel like he may have had some doubts and a short talk with the Blues front office confirmed it.

                                Most coaches would have stepped down by now, I feel Eaves ego is just to massive to do such a thing. His ego is probably the likely reason for this mess to begin with.

                                This season will not be lacking in the entertainment value, it is just all the wrong kind.

                                The dark days are upon us, hopefully we are near rock bottom.
