The Sicatoka

I'd guess it was old b-roll footage.

I'm guessing there's a fine line between taking a call and tampering. And all the moreso in a world with a one-time transfer (no sit out year). https://www.ncaa.org/sites/default/files/2018DIGOV_QA_ProposalNo2017_108_06_27_20180627.pdf

I moved the CCHA talk to its own thread. Let's keep this portal focused. Thanks.

Why are you bringing up the 2017 offsides call at Scheels that favored BU? Oh. Wait. Nevermind.

I have once. I'm still in counselling.

Kaleb Johnson is a January 2001 DOB. Kaleb is 20 today and will still be 20 as of December 31. He has a juniors year left.

Based on that article, Schlossman foresees ...

I'd like another goalie but there's not much out there. And if a quality forward fell into the lap ...

Which begs the question --- Why? Additional thought: Portal folks have been through the NCAA clearinghouse. What paperwork is left for USHL goalies?

As always, winning solves plethora of issues.

I stare at the list (I just brought forward) and my concern is suddenly ... goaltender. There are legitimate freshman recruits that could fill every open F and D slot. And yes, you keep your eyes and ears on the portal for the time being in case something too good to look past shows up. That said, ... Schlossman was willing to print that (goalie recruits) Johnson and Hedquist aren't ready to come in. A goalie behind Driscoll has to be the priority. An underclassman (meaning more than one year of eligibility left) would be perfect if he's out there.

Forwards: Portz Schmaltz Ford (BGSU portal) _______ _______ _______ <- slot added because Blaisdell is in the portal Defense: Bast, L Ferner (RPI portal) Jandric (UAF portal) _______ <- Johnson or Morrow? Goaltender: Driscoll (BSU portal) _______

It's not dumb at all; it's completely legitimate. We don't know what we don't know.

The committee looks at any fall games played also. You see a 5-1 MoState; the committee sees a 5-4 MoState. That will keep MoState out.

Trade deadline day. https://www.capfriendly.com/trades Seems to be a fire sale in Columbus -- Riley Nash, David Savard, Nick Foligno all traded away. Boston and Toronto look like buyers.

Pretend the 244 pound back is just a TE and tackle that.

Who knows what Cruikshank could be looking at. He could be waiting to talk to Frozen Four teams. He could be talking to pros. I know what I'd like for him, but, if it doesn't make sense to him it makes sense for no one.

Twenty-fifth year senior ...

Schlossman seems pretty confident that Portz and Schmaltz are coming this fall. I’d like Kunz also. Why? The Sleeper Line — it ends with z’s

I’d say Berry et al are well on their way to rebuilding a defense that can withstand Sanderson and Kleven away at WJC for a month.

Know your lane.
