  • Syracuse Orange-It's time for a Coaching Change

    After 11 years of leading the program, is it time for a change?
    It is nice that the program finally won the CHA, but unfortunately the team did not have a single win outside of the CHA...
    The team finished 13-22-3, how much longer will the school accept mediocrity with the investment they have made?

    Isn't Syracuse the only school that has a D1 women's team but no men's team? Might that have any bearing on the AD possibly having more patience with the coaching situation than what would otherwise be the case?

      Assistants jumping ship to be another assistant is usually a tell. But, I think he saved his job and Eastwood and Hoppner have one more year. His best move may have been bringing in Hoppner.

          The 8th and 9th place scorers on the team?! I totally don't understand what you're saying. And Hoppner was a transfer so officially he didn't bring her in. Eastwood is a captain so I guess you're saying she's a good leader. Plus the way you wrote your post you made it read like Eastwood and Hoppner were his assistant coaches with another year left on their contract. Weird post overall.

          The top 2 scorers are Seniors so that's always tough to replace and the goalie with the most playing time is also a Senior even though her stats show her as the 2nd best goalie this season so kind of weird that she got that much more playing time over the goalie with better stats. Maybe a loyalty thing there but if you think your job is on the line I'd think you would want to play the better goalie more often regardless of class year.

              The senior, Welch, played much more in the early part of the season, much of it against the much tougher non-conference schedule; the junior, Cohen, played primarily if not quite exclusively against CHA teams. Yes, there's a bit of 'chicken or egg' logic to that point, but Cohen numbers weren't all that much better than Welch's.

                BC men had an abysmal OOC record too, and they just signed the coach to an extension.

                  I thought Cohen played very solidly against UW last week. She wasn't going down on every save like some to and then get beat high. UW shelled Welsh earlier in the year.

                        I have read in the past the Syracuse's hockey budget is about $2.5 Million Dollars which is only behind Wisconsin slightly, it seems like by now the program should be further ahead, it looks like it has gone backwards?
                        Other programs have changed their Coaches and it seems like it has energized the programs?
