Sounds like an informative and entertaining evening. I can't be there, but I hope we hear details from those who can.

Reasonable to assume the Coach Carmody and Coach Gibbons will be the guests on the radio show that night. Last year was the same set-up. I stayed and listened to the radio broadcast last year. Both coaches said basically the same thing to both the live and the studio audiences. The difference was the audience questions. If I recall correctly, they were fairly well reported here. Brendan Glasheen also kept half an ear on our group in case we came with a great question that he wanted to share with the radio audience

Will CBC give the names of any of the freshmen as to who is ready to contribute right away ?

Do coaches shoes ever let anything out of the bag? If the interviewer asks a mildly controversial question, is he not usually stared down?

Will CBC give the names of any of the freshmen as to who is ready to contribute right away ? I'm going to give a two part response to this. On the coaches' show on the radio, I don't think we'll get an answer to that question During coaches' night immediately preceding the coaches' show, maybe. I actually remember a coach saying at one of these things, that a certain freshman was a step ahead of his classmates. I don't remember if it was Coach Carmody or Coach Brown who made the statement. We have frequently heard just the opposite - that a certain freshman had a lot of potential but wasn't ready yet

If you cannot discover any freshmen names, perhaps CBC would give the number of frosh who are ready, then we all could engage in a guessing game until the Assumption exhibition.

Absolutely, that was KY's impression of Ed Sullivan "Tonight, ladies and gennelmen, we've got a really big shoe . . . . the Beatles!"

I nominate NAD to ask this question because Carmody enjoys the repartee he has with Dave and takes all his questions so seriously. I am sure the assembled will get a straight answer.

Another for NAD Coach, with 79% of our three point attempts having graduated, who are the candidates besides KC to take some of these shots ?

Two great questions and likely the answer to both will be the same...

Ha....I think not. Coach Carm has been less than impressed with my previous Coaches Night's questions, so I will be more than happy to ask questions on behalf of others. I can preface it with something like "I know this is a silly question, Coach, but hchoops wants to know right now which freshmen will be getting the most burn to start the season". If he doesn't make a face like this I'll ask him another one.

Interesting discussions specifically about men's hockey. It made it sound as though we are where we are and that is not changing, so lets raise the level of the present conference against others. Hearing we had the second worst record in the country against non-conference opponents seemed to be a plus for the coach, but it was not something I feel good about...unless that improvement continues this year and in the future.

Bump - For those of you in Central Ma, come on down and hear what the coaches have to say For the out -of -towners, 95 percent of what is said will likely be repeated in the radio broadcast at 7:00. Unfortunately, you'll need to be there in person to see Coach Carmody roll his eyes at a NAD question. It's only been going for two years, but already seems like a time honored tradition
