    So we now have a list of 7 out of a reported 8 of the in-person interviews. Do you think they will pick from the 8, or pare it down to another round of "finalists"?

    I just hope they do their homework and get it right. As anxious as I am to hear who they pick, I'd rather have to wait a couple weeks and get the best guy.
    Agreed on Ellsworth. It's been said that he felt Mel glossed over his application to be an assistant a few years ago, and that he wasn't too happy about it.

    My guess is they do a cut to 2-3 finalists, and then do follow-up interviews.

          Knowing what I know (which isn't much ), and based on the below list of 7 out of 8 confirmed interviewees:

          -Rolston
          -Shawhan
          -Muckalt
          -Herter
          -Mikesch
          -Ellsworth
          -Shuchuk

          My gut feeling says the job is Rolston's if he wants it and they can come to terms, so I finally voted in Shirtless' poll.

            I still can't work the link to Shirtless' poll.

              Hearing that there's more than 8. Someone familiar to Tech and another who's coached in a number of places.

                My source is very well connected to the decision makers, and he says 8 is the number. I think that if the preferred candidate accepts, it ends there. Otherwise, the best guess is that there will be another round.

                  The Tech turnaround was based on the ability to attract players and the type of game style, up tempo push the puck up the ice fast and control it in all 3 zones. When you analyze the candidates who best allows this to continue.
                  As highly regarded as the two current assistants are by the fan base, based on the selection, it seems at most only one will be back based on defensive or offensive need.

                  I would say it is a 3 man race now based on that criteria.
