Re: UNH Wildcats 2015-2016 (Part Three) - Living in Interesting Times
Well, U.Conn is just passing by... they lack depth but are getting higher end kids than UNH (Wisocky, Elser, Mayer, Wiseman). They lack the facilities, but have a good HC/recruiter. U.Maine is just not attractive enough for kids given its location. U.Vermont should be OK but the coach's defensive style is stiffling and unattractive, and U.Mass -- who knows, almost all of their players were recruited elsewhere and were taken in there. I wonder if the next coach is the winner..wonder what would have
happened to them and us if they took Borek three or so years ago.
UNH should be just passing through, as well, as they are a near Boston suburb, and have a history of success.
I won't say more as we'll have all spring to flay the horse.

Souza spent the last two years as an assistant coach at Connecticut under head coach Mike Cavanaugh, and played an integral role as the Huskies transitioned to Hockey East last season.
“(Souza) will have an opportunity to succeed me and take over the program,” Umile said. “That will be the transition going forward. (Athletic director) Marty (Scarano) makes the decisions. Mike knew that by coming back with us he’d have that opportunity when I retire and my career is over. Obviously, I have three years left before that. I’m excited about it. I’ll finish my career coaching at UNH.”
Umile is going into his 26th season as UNH’s head coach. He has 560 career wins, and is one of four active Division I coaches to have 500-plus victories.
The extension is reportedly worth $248,000 per year. Scarano could not be reached for comment.
