2nd Worst Record In College Hockey

[pdt1081]

It sucks, he should be fired today. Recruiting for 2007 , 2008 and 2009 is on the line NOW! They say that Paluch needs his own guys, Jeff Jackson is working with leftovers and his guys. Urban Meyer used someone elses recruits. I do not know if Danton is the guy or someone else. I do know this ain't working. As an un-named players Dad said, give the new coach
$ 120,000 and a percentage of the gate.

First, look at what we have coming into the program. The leading scorer in the USHL and the goalie from the Under 18 program (stolen right out of scUM's backyard, literally). Right now, recruiting isn't an issue.

Second, why not give that offer to Paluch? Think about this, there was a coaching change. The players that were here before the change was made, didn't like the coach. What's to say you're gonna find a coach that every player loves? You're not. Real players that love the game and have a true desire to go to the next level will grit up and deal with it. There are current players that seem to be doing this (whether they like Paluch or not I don't know) but the effort they show on the ice shows they want to play. If you don't want to play, get the hell off the ice, you're not wanted here.

My guess is that Christopher has heard just about everything there is to hear on this subject. I would also guess that this board has been read by more than just those who post here if you know what I mean.

Oh, sh!t. I hope I spelt everything good.

I ran spell check on my post.....

I'll just leave it like this. If Paluch isn't fired at the end of this season, I'm never going back to the Ice Arena until he is or until his contract has run out.

good you won't be missed

Why not offer it to Paluch????? Are you kidding????????? Take a look at the record since he has been here!!! That is all I need to see!

You can look at it any way you want but, as I see it, Paluch blames it on old recruits, bad seeds, the facilities, lack of leadership, etc. Most every "player" that comes here says they have loved the facilities, the town the fans, and playing with their teamates(whether they liked them personally or not), everything except the coach. hmmmmmm????

Liking the coach I don't believe is the issue, ask any player if they "like" their coach...most will probably say NO he's a ****, but ask them if the respect him and his capabilities as a coach?? If he is a good coach, the answer will be a positive one.

The problem is not like or dislike, I do believe the players have no respect for Paluch or his coaching abilities. Who's fault is that? In my opinion, I've seen enough repetively bad coaching in the last three years to know, it is his own.

It was said a real player will grit up a play no matter what, don't you think that is what they are doing????? I don't know one hockey player past or present that has ever went out on that ice to lose!! If anyone thinks that is what is happening, you are off your rockers!

Its ok Pdt is the same guy who after every win comes on here and says we lost cause of the refs.
The recruiting, who cares!! You have two players coming in next year that are SUPPOSSED to be good. Not to mention one is 5'4 and is going to be tossed around like a ragdoll. But anyway, are two players going to turn around the program. Please give your head a shake. Offer that money to pooch.. you just lost all credibility with that comment, I thought you were slightly intelligent but just had diverse opinions but now, nothing. You have embarrassed yourself with that comment. Hopefully the new AD has some more brains than that.
I vote for the For Sale sign on Pooch's lawn!!

My guess is that similar things were said about you coming in here....

Something to think about BD

I don't think being 5'4" will be a bad thing. I haven't followed the recruiting news that closely, but maybe he's really fast. And let me tell you, size is not everything. I'm 5'2" on a good day, and when I played soccer, I didn't take crap from anyone. I would hit girls hard and not back down to any girl, even those that towered above me. Maybe this new recruit has that same kind of attitude and determination. I'd rather have a whole team that is 4'6" and will hit and play their hearts out rather than have a team of 6'6" giants that play half-heartedly.

That's just my opinion.

[McConvey]

Without having seen this new recruit play, I'll reserve judgement on him. Sure 5'4" isn't particularly tall, but I seem to remember this little pr!ck named Brian Gionta running all over the place and causing havoc for the opposition when he was with Boston College. And he's in the NHL now. I think he's listed at 5'7", but he's definitely not that tall. BC has this little punk now named Nathan Gerbe (listed at 5'6" but I assure you he's shorter) and he's not half bad, either. Fourth on the team in scoring with 21 points, leads the team in goals with 13 and is only a sophomore.

Point is that it might not be the norm, but short dudes can flourish if they've got the right package.

The only thing I'll say on the coaching situation is this: I saw one game this season and I was appalled at the lack of any discernable system. And I was disappointed at how far the program has slipped since I graduated low those many years ago (2004!).

Sometimes it is just toooooo easy.

FWIW - Cepis is listed at 5'7", not 5'4". It amazes me how former players can talk down about new recruits. You say you want the team to succeed and yet, when we bring in a new guy who is scoring big time in the USHL, you talk him down because of his size.

From what I understand, you made a current player that was suppose to come in last year so uncomfortable when he was here over the summer, he stayed in the USHL one more year just so he didn't have to play with you. How's that for a warm and fuzzy?

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that there aren't problems right now, and I'm not saying that coaching isn't one of them, but several of you certainly didn't help matters any with your attitudes.

Show me one post where I said we lost solely because of the refs. Can't do it. Have I said the reffing has sucked and contributed to it, absolutely. It's really hard to believe you actually played in this league (or at all) if you don't believe a ref will make you or break you.

Paluch's ability to attract top talent was questioned. Look at where other schools are getting their talent, then look at these guys coming in. Can't deny his recruiting ability. And you're right, two players aren't going to turn the entire program around.

Please give your head a shake. Offer that money to pooch.. you just lost all credibility with that comment, I thought you were slightly intelligent but just had diverse opinions but now, nothing. You have embarrassed yourself with that comment. Hopefully the new AD has some more brains than that.

Why would the University want to go through the hassle of a coaching change, only to offer some new guy more money and incentives? Offer Paluch what you would a new coach and give him two years. By that time the majority of the team will have played at BGSU with only Paluch recruits.

What's really funny is that if it wasn't for your and freddiethefalconBG's posts on here, I would probably be saying it was time for a change. But with the insight you have so blessed us with it makes it all the more clear where the real problem lies.

Doesn't really matter...he says a lot that doesn't make sense.

I think that Scott Paluch is posting on this board under the name pdt1081.
