Re: UNH Commits & Recruiting: 2017 and Beyond
Poor BU in the mix for championships every year...
They've won three HE championships, made three NCAA tournaments and lost a national title on a fluke goal against in four seasons of David Quinn. I think their recruiting strategy is paying off just fine. If you think you're winning NCAA titles every season in a one-game playoff setting you're in the wrong sport. Recruiting lots of talent gives you a chance every year which is all you can ask...
Lowell hasn't had any MORE success and the idea that they don't recruit high-end talent is a myth. They just find it in different places. Wall, Smith, Gamberdella, Zink, Kapla and Goranson, for example, are studs anyone would want. Young kids like Kerner and Meehan are big time recruits...
Anytime someone bemoans UNH's luck of high-end talent someone else argues about early departures. It has nothing to do with that. TK or JVR - it doesn't matter. They're both high-end. UNH needs more kids who can really play whether it's Lowell's method or BU's. It should not be assumed that when calls are out for 'elite' talent it means high draft picks and early departures. It just means players with serious ability. They haven't had enough on the roster and they don't have enough in the pipeline....
