    No campus life to speak of and no help from rural community BoR.

    Dry campus......UAC wet campus with bar sporting high test beer and wine with lowest prices in _airbanks.

    No stipend expenditure to student athletes.

    No student support.

    As everybody but me sez... one of worst arena’s in America.

    Rumors of program being dropped so village can survive.

    With all going for you go. You go sign 2 lines of blue chippers I dare you.
    Yeah, yeah, yeah. The players on this years team were solid enough to not end up in last place. That is on the coach. The last I read UA_ didn't offer stipends either. Anyone know which WCHA schools, other than Bowling Green, are paying the stipends?

    From ADN:

    "According to NCAA, the (UAF) hockey team used ineligible players in every game played from the 2007-08 season to the 2010-11 season. Over that span, the wins and ties will all become losses. 4 wins and 2 ties came against rival UAA".

    UAF is 56-86-12 vs. UAA.

        UAF made the kind of hockey history on October 10th 2015 that no team wants to claim – the Nanooks became the first NCAA Division I victim of Arizona State.

            Without an increase in SOG numbers the team is doomed to the same dismal results as this year.
            Not looking for anyones head but something has to change.
            SOG was a problem with Shyiak as well.
            Just to be clear. My disinterest in this team became of the Uni's disinterest. Without the success of the hockey team, the other teams would not be where they are. Way to pay back the hockey team. **** UAA.

In my opinion, hard to use your progression numbers to make a team competitive. Bemidji 0 draft picks and first in the WCHA, University of Michigan always loaded with draft picks and have struggled to make the playoffs, 2015 Union beats University of Minnesota who is loaded with draft picks.
              Yes, but your coaches developing you so that they can play in the AHL or NHL is definitely desired by players.

                Straight from John Buccigross' twitter: RPI Women's Hockey is looking raise $2,500 to get some new uniforms. So I just sent them $2,500.00. Thank U for http://bucciot.com buys

                If only we were so lucky.

                      All players get a small stipend on road trips. Even UAA and UAF.

                              When you have a conservative minor official who uses their personal rationalization of a save outside of official rules, it doesn't help either.

                                That is probably true, but the fact remains he was extremely successful his first season, with Shyiaks recruits, so it can be done.
