To continue the Coyle theme he had a little blog with NEHJ during the combine here. My favorite part:

I meant to mention what happened with Toronto on Tuesday. They asked me if I liked Sam Adams. I wasn’t sure what they were talking about. There’s a new rapper out named Sam Adams. I don’t listen to rap, but Hayesie loves him so I knew who he was. So I had to ask them, are you talking about the rapper or the beer? I don’t know if it was to lighten the mood, but it was pretty funny.

If only there was a 3rd option But that actually is a great trick question to see if the kid knows more about beer than American history, funny that it was asked by a Canadian team though.

It doesn't seem like Coyle is high on the academic scale. I hope he stays eligible for his first year at BU.

"Incoming freshman forward Charlie Coyle will be honored with the John Carlton Award during the second intermission of Thursday's Bruins-Sabres game at the TD Garden.

The award is given annually to the high school senior who combines exceptional hockey skills with ***academic excellence*** while competing for an Eastern Massachusetts high school or junior team."

I'm aware, hell the GM's son went to a high school 20 minutes from me, where I had a bunch of friends. It still struck me as interesting. I figure the question had to only be asked to New England kids, as I assume he is a fringe historical figure everywhere else, likely even worse known than Aaron Burr; and I doubt asking "What is your opinion of Aaron Burr" to all the Americans at the combine would result in very comprehensive answers.

Good points. I do though find it amazing that 2 guys who borderline run team USA are allowed to run the over the top, Candian team called the Maple Leafs. The fans up there die for the team. They are a cellar dwellar and i have heard talk radio explodes with how much time Burke spent working on Olympics etc over Maple Leafs.

Either way, i hope he continues doing what he is doing

You don't embarrass easily do you?

You know, except for the fact that there's been no mention of Alex Greer, I would think Noreaster is BUterror reincarnated.

I cannot locate my 09-10 media guide. I knew I'd probably throw away something valuable while cleaning my room before move-out.

BU is 2-5-1 all-time vs. BC at Agganis. On a tangent, I cannot locate my 09-10 media guide. I knew I'd probably throw away something valuable while cleaning my room before move-out.

Say what?

Re: Boston University Offseason Thread 2: Moving Forward by Booting Forwards

The '09-'10 media guides were the last ones printed. Beginning next season, the guides will only be available online. I believe the Big 10 has done this for several years.
