    3. knowledge of the game
    4. communications ability
    5. willingness to work extremely hard to get a result.
    6. gifted recruiter.
    7. gilt edged reputation.
    In that order?

      Here I figured the number 1a and 1b qualifications would be the ability to beat Michigan and Northern...
      I was told there would be no math...

        but.... imagine you have this girl friend. You've romanced her for a while and finally she reluctantly agrees to marry you. But she says, you know I still like Bob over here an awful lot even though bob is married to someone else right now. So you get married and it's incredibly good. you are happy, and your girl friend is happy and everything seems good. Except once in a while you find out she still likes bob an awful lot.... And then bob gets a divorce.
        So one day your now wife comes in and says, you know I love you and all, but I'm going to go back with Bob. I just have always loved him and this is my chance to be with him.
        You knew she might leave, you hoped she would stay, you tried like crazy to make her happy, and in the end it hurts like hell when she walks out the door.
        Bob knew full well what he was getting into. Especially when he signed a prenup.

          Sigh, I hate to admit it, but you're right

              Buck Fob indeed. Always hated U of M, that won't change now. Probably hate them even more.

              Can't wait to find out who they decide on to take the team forward.

              LGH!!!

                  Did Tech have to give Mel and UM permission to talk? Do they need permission to talk to a candidate currently under contract in the NCAA?

                    It varies depending on what is written into their contract. I don't know what (if any) restrictions Pearson might have had. The head coach of BGSU has been tossed out as a possible replacement for Tech and it has been stated that he needs permission in writing to talk to any potential future employers.

                    I was thinking last night that if LSSU decides to dump Whitten or he decides to go somewhere else, the whole UP will start to sound like the Oprah show when they gave away Pontiacs...

                          Whats wrong with speculation? It's not like anyone had Potulny on their list...everyone completely missed on that one. I do agree that after reading Bergeron's contract that it is very unlikely that he would leave for MTU at this time...

                            Absolutely nothing is wrong with speculating, especially if it helps the healing process.

                              BG to MTU is a lateral move at best.

                                Hockey is the top athletic program on campus and has recent NCAA tournament appearances.
