  • First official thread of Nazareth hockey

    Well, looks like they have a coach, according to an INCH tweet:

    George Roll will be announced later this week as first head coach at Nazareth, a start-up D-3 program near Rochester, NY.

    Congrats to one of the nicer guys in college hockey landing on his feet. I bet you anything if Oz plays them that he will/should get a warm reception because he did help lay the groundwork for the Lakers. I hope our fans are smart enough to realize that.

    Then we can proceed to beat him 4-1.

      That is a great move for a new program. This should give them instant credibility from a recruiting standpoint.

      Impressive first step

              Two posts into a non-Oswego thread before the transfer joke comes into play? Must be some kind of record.

                    Re: First official thread of Nazareth hockey

                    I think that Nazareth needs to look at LVC as how NOT to go about recruiting. George has a good knowledge of the CJHL (or whatever it's name is now) and the OPJHL. If he can throw in a local kid or two from the EJHL team in Rochester, he may have a decent (but very young) team to start.

                    There will be some growing pains, no doubt, until he gets a full 4 years of recruiting. Hopefully not 24 - 0 growing pains, but there will be painful, even ugly, losses. I'm not sure what kind of travel budget he'll have, but if Nazareth wins 5 games in year one, especially playing conference games in the ECAC-W, George (and the players) will deserve major kudos.

                    Next up on the expansion rumor board - Stevenson College (Baltimore) (which would give the ECAC-W the magic 7 and cut Pool C down to 2).

                      They are now exploring men's hockey? Thought it was only women's.

                        Women are a go next season. Then build a rink and the mens team is assumed (rumored) for the 14-15 or 15-16 season.

                        But by then Naz will be up and running.

                            Nazareth has a very good athletic program, and with Roll coaching, I would expect them to be good quickly.

                              I totally agree. Naz seems to know what they are doing and I think they can contend in 3-5 years.
