    Sorry, HR, reminiscing is more fun for me.
    No apology needed...reminisce all you like.

      And I’ll add that Colin Sheen was the son of Dave Sheen, who played at UNH in the late 60s. We also passed on sons of Beaney, Clark and Crowder. Of course, UNH was the beneficiary when BU passed on Chris Murray, son of Bob Murray, who played on BU’s two NCAA championship teams. Recruiting can be a strange game.

              More affirmation UNH is trying to "do a Lowell". Now if only Souza can be Bazin Mach 2, we're on our way back!!

                        It took Rohlik 4 seasons to get Ohio State back to the NCAA Tournament, which they did last season (the first time since 2009). He got Bittner, an OSU alum, to come last spring and Steve Miller to come to OSU last summer. The three of them have received commitments from four, 4-star or higher recruits in the last 5 weeks - Gildon 4.5, Prokop 4.5, Layton 4.25 and Vanderbeck 4.0. Getting back to the NCAA Tourney can help attract top assistant coaches and recruits. Also, both Bittner (‘16 World Junior A) and Miller (‘17 World Juniors) had recent success as assistant coaches of Team USA squads. Top college recruiters often have experience coaching top USA Hockey teams on their resume.

                            Have heard from a source (not affiliated with UNH) that the younger Gildon had offers from most of the major programs and was leaning toward the Big 10.

                              Apart from the noticeable difference in credentials of the assistants (Miller recruited for years at NCAA champion Denver and also for NCAA champion Providence, Bittner coached in one of the prime recruiting spots, the USHL), care to make the same contrast between Rohlik and Souza (years coaching, NCAA Appearances, broader peer recognition by items such as being selected to coach USA teams)?

                              How do you see any of those differences as impacting your hopeful "four year/only need to hire qualified recruiters" path?

                              And final question, if attracting top notch assistants is critical, do you anticipate that, because Umile's coaching tree has almost no branches (he had little interest in fostering younger proteges), we might even see UNH abandon its affirmative action plan of hiring underqualified UNH alums, at the expense of more qualified on-UNH alums?

                                Would like to know (and we prob won't) if UNH was in the picture for Michael G. This recruiting thing is tough. Sometimes I feel like UNH is like a rock in a hard place; due to the past few seasons it's tougher to get those players? But to get back to where you once were you need those players? Quite the quandary...Seems like the elite players have a track to run on; one that ensures they play in the best place to get them to where they ultimately want to go, which is professional hockey I would assume. C-H-C points out that path in his post.

                                That doesn't mean UNH isn't that place. But surely we didn't expect him to come to us simply because his brother did...doesn't always work out that way. So before anyone chops my head off, believe me...it would've been great had he chosen us. Not sure this is sigh worthy???
