Re: so back to what this means...
That's why I used the word "IF". Also, after Lucia and other big name programs came out against the gentleman's agreement, a whole slew of programs committed to upholding it... including UND, UMD, and SCSU. The fate of the GA may be sealed, but it's not entirely dead yet. Lucia basically ...

New wrinkle in this saga - the older boy is repeating 8th grade. Not sure where you get your information but it is incorrect. He was in 7th grade last year. Both brothers have always been in the same grade. He just started 8th grade this year for the first time. NO REPEAT As far as HS, yes they are...

Anybody else have/had kids this age, pre-puberty through the teen years? Yeah, me too. There is A LOT of stuff that happens through those years and A LOT of things change. I've heard these kids names over the years and I'm sure they are very good, even elite youth hockey players, but it's a long ro...

What bugs me most about this is that when the kids get to be 18-20 and it comes time to trot off to college, the college doesn't have to honor that commitment, hence all the over recruiting that some programs do. Looking at Chris Heisenberg's recruit list, last year there were teams that had 15+ re...

Re: so back to what this means...
I would imagine other programs might be receptive to their inquiries too, but if they are abiding by the Gentlemen's Agreement, they won't extend an offer until the player has publicly de-committed. Seems like the Gentleman's Agreement is going by the wayside. "For years, college coaches mostl...

Just my personal opinion, Nothing against the kids, They don't know any better. but actions like this sure make me lose respect for the U of MN program. You may as well lose respect for the entire system then because it isn't just one school. Exactly. I find it comical that anyone would push blame ...

Re: so back to what this means...
Seems like the Gentleman's Agreement is going by the wayside. "For years, college coaches mostly adhered to a gentleman’s agreement in recruiting. Once a player committed to a school, other schools stopped recruiting him. Not always, but generally speaking. Lucia said that practice is “fading....

Nope nothing is guaranteed, you are correct... However, I'm pretty sure you can't unring a bell..... Good thing we aren't talking about ringing a bell :) You clearly don't understand the situation as well as you think you do. Really? Cuz I've been two to three months ahead of you and the rest on he...

This is why participation rates in MN dwarf that of every other state. Techincally this is not true. Michigan's enrolled USA Hockey numbers are on par with Minensota's as are Massachussettes, the number of kids they send to D1 re not but technically participation numbers are similar Michigan also h...

College isn't for everyone but you should take more than 2-3 weeks to decide that. And even then you might want to take a year in USHL/NAHL and revisit decision. Slamming the door on college hockey seems pretty drastic. Wish him the best. Good player. He, like all Gopher freshmen, took classes over...

Sounds like he is going to stay at the U and focus on academics. Good for him. Good luck. And where did you hear that? He pulled it out of his butt. https://twitter.com/darrylwolski/status/380109582107832320 From what I've heard, he isn't Vannelli's advisor though. I've been told he's still undecid...

A conscience. A very good Hockey player, but he never would have gave it up if he totally felt he deserved it(now). You NEVER see character like this! Wow! He has a new fan that will be pulling for him.. Refreshing, good luck to the kid. Refreshing that the kid was harassed to the point where he fe...
