One thing about the NHL - you know you'll get fired eventually. BTW the game I saw him at was the Avalanche game, not a coincidence methinks with Makar playing.

Carvel is tied for 3rd in this list of odds: https://twitter.com/EvanMarinofsky/status/1534543046666334211 I see this list and immediately think of Calipari in '96, tempted with a big bag of pro league money. He was also given a good amount of control, as he was also VP of Basketball Ops. Ultimatel...

No, not my son. Just know the pain of a family who lost a son so young, the family I am referring to was of a student of mine.

I lost a 22-year-old UNH alum this year. He was a sweet and smart guy. I cannot imagine the pain his family and friends must feel. Very sad.

CAA is AQ only for the most part. A10 has the potential for multiple, depending on how strong their OOC schedules turn out to be. The key questions are will A10 have more visibility on TV/streaming, and will UMass be able to build more natural and deeper rivalries in the longer term. If yes to both,...

A10 will be instantly highly competitive. Glad we remove the 1 one-off conference.

We'll see if it helps our reach south or not. I'd rather see us more consistently reach to CANADA, myself.

That writeup seemed encouraging to me. Nice.
