If being tired of status quo makes me a complainer, guilty.

How can it be a "coveted" job when UND only hires alum? This spring has been a colossal waste of time and the AD should be on a very short hook

UND hires UND people. 5his whole process since firing Berry has been a recycling process. Not much to see different so far

Than Roebuck? Hell no.

Omaha, without football, has NIL $$$ for hoops.

I agree with this 100%. The 1st guardrail has to be eliminating the spring portal for football. FCS programs get hammered in mid April when FBS schools suddenly need a player; it's not fair and should be stopped.

Hutter isn't using NIL $$$ to get these recruits and no one knows for sure that any of them can play. He has 8 roster spots to fill and, in WBB, NIL is less of a thing than on the men's side.

The younger sister is on the 25-26 roster for ASU, Hanna is not, so maybe sis is staying put

I admire the positivity in this forum; it's clear that UND hockey is a priority for many people. However, the guy we chose has been a part of the "culture" for 19 years, he's as much a part of the culture as Bubba was. If he felt this was out of whack at Christmas time, why wasn't something done? If we weren't "talented" enough, who's on the hook for finding players? I get it, there is always a new/fresh start for the program when we hire a new head coach, let's hope the tides turn. But, what did we change, really?

They cannot go to battle with the 5 on this list plus Kraft, King, and Bothun. There has to be legitimate size coming to this roster before the fall of 2025.

Didn't seem to help UND hockey. In sports like basketball and hockey, losing 5-8 guys every year is hard to sustain winning. SDSU men dealt with it this year and NDSU and UND are dealing with annually. In the last 2 years, NIL has put 3 UND players in Cal (ACC), Washington (Big 10), and now South Carolina (SEC). Figuring out how to sustain and kind of success when an average program losing 3 guys to schools like this is really hard. I'm not sure anyone is Summit has it figured out.

Big corporations, not a lot. A pool of NHL players, current and alums who are worth millions of dollars, we have a lot. Time to give back

The point of firing coaches used to be about making players uncomfortable. Dane's hiring keeps them feeling good about who they are, are we really better? I'd prefer a team that hasn't seen the frozen 4 in 9 or 10 years play uncomfortable; we'll see.

The head coach hurt the culture but his Asst coach helped the culture??? That's insane, but whatever.

Correct
