SAVE UAH HOCKEY!!!

Post by Falcon Fanatic »

Falcon Fan, it's time to pay it forward!!! When our program was on the chopping block, fans from all over the hockey world spoke up LOUDLY and made a difference. Now another program is in danger and we need to step forward and help them. The University of Alabama-Huntsville's hockey program needs our help!

LET'S GO FALCON HOCKEY FANS!!!
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

If for no other reason than it's a shorter drive for me to go to Huntsville than BG to see the Falcons play hockey, I'm signing this. Really though, I loved the support we got from outside sources when our program was in jeopardy and I believe it is important to return that favor.

Not usually one for signing online petitions (as most I hear about are for things I find stupid and not needing of a petition) but this one is definitely worth the cause

Signed it as well!

Why is this school seen as the black sheep of college hockey...........they might not be in the situation they are in now if some league offered an invite. Recruiting would pickup for them as well as fans in their stands. With the summer of shifting conferences they not throw them a bone.........seriously the only college hockey program thats an independent and NOT by choice. The higher ups in College Hockey need to take a stand and tell a league to absorb them, I blame this on the big-wigs of college hockey for laying low and doing nothing. Shame on you for letting this happen to a program.

Thanks everyone! I hope a lot of others who read, but don't post on here, also sign the petition, too. I also hope that UAH gets an invite by one of the leagues. That team has a VERY, VERY strong following!! In 2010, when they played in the NCAA regionals at Ft. Wayne against the redskinhawks, there were a LOT of their fans at the game!!! I never expected to see THAT many fans considering the distance they were traveling. And just an fyi, any guess who I was rooting for? Head Coach and former Falcon Asst. Coach Danton Cole, of course!!! :-D Which, of course brings me to another reason to support UAH, two head coaches with Falcon ties. Former Falcon player and Olympic player, Doug Ross was their coach from 1989-2007!

GOOD LUCK CHARGERS!!!
