Re: MICHIGAN TECH 2017 OFF-SEASON - We're Adding to the Trophy Case & Keeping Pearson
So if Mel leaves, and if I am honest it looks like all signs are pointing to him doing so, who do we want on our list of candidates? I would certainly want Muckalt on the list but not sure he would consider Tech because as others have said, he seems to have his eye on the NHL and Tech may not be the stepping stone to get there. I would also like to see George Gwozdecky and Mike Eaves on the list, while both were fired from their last jobs for lack of success, they have also both had very successful periods and won NCs, and if Tech is as serious as they have claimed to be about the hockey program, getting someone like that in would be a good idea. Finally, I am not sure what he is doing, but I know he has done some coaching, but I wouldn't mind seeing Mike Batovanja on the list, he seems to be respected by anyone he has ever played with and have the love and passion for the game that would be needed, the biggest problem there would be the lack of recruiting experience.
No matter what though it does seem to me that we will need to start a new coaching search soon.
