Many comments of support from college hockey fans as we walked the concourse wearing our BG jerseys. Flagged down by BG alums who are stunned by the situation.

Nice article, the alumni involvement sounds very encouraging. Looking at this year's Frozen Four there is no reason other than administrative commitment that BG couldn't be a national hockey power again.

it's one of the lead stories on the site -- they haven't archived the last couple for some reason, but right now, it's in their 'top 4' stories on the main page of BGSUFalcons

Quote from George McPhee:
"It can't just be about the program surviving. If they're going to be serious about the program, they have to make a commitment that the program is not only here to stay, but it will be a really good one. It can be a really good one because it was a powerhouse for two decades."
He hit it RIGHT on the freakin head!

One has to wonder...Ron Mason did retire from he AD job. What if he could come back for say 5 years just to reestablish the program as part of the overall plan....
