Not sure if the communication between Spicer and the coaches but if he thought he was coming in this year and was blind sided the coaches need to have expectations clearly defined between the school and recruits.
A local player on the National team decommits from his home town team , I wonder how that news is going over with all the USNDT players we hoped to recruit now and in the future.
I used to feel when we went heads up against most teams in a recruiting battle more often then not we got our guy , seems like we aren’t winning alot of those battles now or at least we aren’t hearing about them.
We don’t know what is happening , but watching ex recruits win the frozen four , become an all American as a freshmen or lead the USHL in scoring gets a little old when we can’t score more then one goal in a playoff game.
What if recruits see this as Berrys forte, other coach’s are for sure using this when talking to recruits, Rizzo, Halliday, Morrow , and now spicer seems like a trend and not a good one.
Who needs speed and that hockey iq anyway, team full of fourth liners must be Berrys goal , WTF.
if Berry can’t keep local kids from decommiting maybe that’s the reason they couldn’t get Cooley or other blue chips.
I still think we grab a forward from the portal , mastrosimone, linden or smilanic either of those would work. We need some offensive output and these guys could provide that.
