To all:
If HC approached you to coach, what reasonable demands would you have for HC before accepting?

Speaking for myself, of course, but I'm referring to the exteriors having the feel of the lower campus.

Could not agree more -- "Alumni and Carlin should be the bar for new construction not Williams or Figge."

BC is definitely a fan of the 5th year.

There’s a reason the rink discussion was held in Fairfield, CT. We shall see.

Glad the school is tearing what to this observer are dorms which are 50's-60's functional ugly as was commonplace on campuses. The interiors are spartan by today's standards and not particularly appealing. They were built to serve a purpose - student housing- with little concern for aesthetics & the architectural history of the College. They were built on the cheap at a time when HC was a financially struggling little college and had to build as cheaply as possible. Alumni & Carlin have a more classical style worthy of a great college. Do hope the new dorms will have a lot more in common architecturally with the lower half of the campus than the rest.

Be interesting to know how this came about.

The most important factors for enduring football success is 1) strong financial and institutional footing and 2) compelling OOC games with at least one FBS match up. Losing just one of the two will dry up recruiting and collapse our program given the general state of the PL.

Gee, a successful and engaged athletics program is helpful with community relations. How about that.

Also notable from presentation — doubling the endowment and broader geographic pool of students. Couldn’t agree more.

Riga email today:
"A major component of establishing our program as a post-season contender each season is a facility renovation. We have started working toward that important project, and had an opportunity to receive feedback on initial concepts from a small group of program alumni and stakeholders this past weekend at Sacred Heart. I know that our hockey community is passionate about the potential of our program, and I look forward to sharing more information on this topic in the coming months."

Funny reading all this after just getting back from watching Lehigh’s CJ McCollum play for the New Orleans Pelicans.

I’m far more concerned about other issues impacting academic integrity than red-shirting. By the way, Richmond, W&M etc allow red-shirting?

www.wgbh.org/news/politics/2022/12/15/gov-charlie-baker-named-next-president-of-the-ncaaThe other issue, Matheson said, is whether the crown jewel of the NCAA, March Madness, can be held together going forward, pointing out how important the redistribution of money from that tournament is to athletic programs across the country. "You're going to see more and more push by the Power 5 conferences1 to have more of their teams in there, fewer of the Holy Crosses, fewer of the University of Vermonts, more of the Dukes, more of the Kenutckys," he said. "And again, how are you going to split up that money? Are you gonna split up that money so that the conferences that do very well in the tournament, do they get even more of the proceeds out of it? Or is it gonna stay like today where the NCAA ... basically takes a bunch of men's basketball money and lavishes it on every single Divison I program — from men's swimming at Holy Cross and women's soccer at Harvard — and it doesn't all go back to the Kentucky and Louisville basketball programs."

I wouldn’t assume that the interests of the faculty completely overlap the broader interests of the school.

Big rain area moving through central MA. Second half should be better. Back edge of steady rain in eastern NY.
