Definitely can't argue with the credentials...should be interesting to see if he can attract the type of talent he had at Wash U... and how soon he can turn things around there. 

Hope you all are having a great spring and we need a boombalaties report cmob

I'm sure the UST posters on here that are on campus have found a way to get outside and use throwing a football  or frisbee as an excuse to look at the ladies tanning. Dowling Beach must be looking quite nice this week! :o ;)

Oh I miss living in the cities and driving around the lakes in my Marshall Fields truck. Those were the days. Those were the yeah baby days.

Heard a rumor today......

UST is following tradition and getting a D2 transfer.....

Anyone else heard anything about this???

I'll wait to say who it is until it is not just a rumor though  ;D  Maybe it will liven up this board

A great hire by Macalester.  Coach Whittle has a very similar situation to the one he is leaving at Washington U, but will the MAC administration go that extra mile and help him out ???  ON another note, I wonder though how the other local candidates who got passed over must feel ???

TearDrop - I will add to the suspense as I am fairly certain I know who the Division 2 transfer is that you speak of.  I can say that if this is the same player that I have heard things about don't be shocked if something completely different happens.  Have I confused everyone yet ;)

THE TOP TEN MIAC OFF-SEASON STORIES TO KEEP D3 POSTERS CLOSE TO THE BOARD:

#10.  For the 2009-2010 season, MIAC Athletic Directors order indestructible metal backboards for the anticipated terrorism that Joe Scott will inflict on the current glass backboards in MIAC arenas.

#9.   To simmer controversy, St. Thomas University returns this year's MIAC MVP trophy to the league office.  Days later UST decides to leave the league entirely to join the Big Ten, because of their 'near win' vs. Golden Gophers in a Saturday afternoon pick-up game.  Cancelled orders for metal backboards are accepted without penalty by the school's suppliers.   (D3 poster MIACMANIAC changes his blog name to BIGTENMANIAC.)

#8.  New Macalaster coach Tim Whittle signs superstars Elisha McYaYa and Luc Renko (alleged brother of Ivan Renko), only to discover later that they are really Ben Van Thorre and Erik Jackson in disguise-----and Macalaster is immediately place on a three year NCAA probation.

#7.  Gustavus Adolphus coach Mark Hanson hires former Concordia sharpshooter Cody Dyshaw's barber as his team 'stylist,' with the expectations that it will help big man Sam Paulson to better "see" his open teammates and improve on his 19 assists for an entire year.  Paulson just misses the All-MIAC team, and has to settle for Drake Palmer's all "No-Hair Team."

#6.   Concordia coach Rich Glass signs the best recruiting class in school history, but shortly thereafter leaves his post to coach at Arizona University (JV).  Glas is quoted, "I felt I overstayed my welcome here in northern North Dakota.  Uhhh. . . make that Minnesota."  Glas is replaced by player/coach Keith Eckhoff, who decides to use his final year of eligibility after all.

#5.
  Coach Aaron Griess along with Augsburg College officials and students stage a protest/demonstration upon learning that the NCAA will grant "Dawg-Killer" Tim Madson from Bethel University another year of eligibility.  Augsburg star Jon Cassens is arrested at the protest while holding up traffic on I-94.  His sentence is reduced to 90 hours of community service when the NCAA discovers their error.

#4.
  Hamline University, in an attempt to toughen up it's image, changes the "P" in Pipers to a "V", and hangs a bronze serpent over the center court of Hutton Arena to intimidate opponents.  The newly named Vipers also replace the pre-game national anthem with an abbreviated choral reading of the "Manifesto."

#3.
  St. Olaf coach Dan (Koz) Kosmoski undergoes hypnosis in an attempt to curtail his incredible knack for picking up untimely technicals late in games that cost his team victories.  The fees for treatments are underwritten and financed by the St. Olaf Music Department, which claims Koz's off-key whining is denigrating their school's fine arts reputation.

#2.
  MIAC Director of Officials George ("Hor-hay") Drouches is fired and replaced by Carleton All-American Zach ("Goose") Johnson.  The MIAC Board of Directors reasons that Johnson has had far more influence on the officials in the last four years than has "Hor-hay."  In addition, some of the less articulate officials find pronouncing "Goose" easier than saying "Hor-hay."

AND THE #1 OFF-SEASON STORY TO KEEP YOUR INTEREST HIGH:

#1.  Frustrated with Johnnie's Coach Jim Smith's injuries and knack for showing up at games on one good leg, the accountability conscious St. John's University administration removes Smith's name from the west end of the basketball court---promising the return of the second moniker when the coach's performance warrants it.  ;)  ;)  ::)  ::)

What an enjoyable read superfan.  Very nice :D

Here are a couple of recruiting tidbits that I heard over the weekend while playing my first round of golf this season.

1) UST has added to their point guard stable, receiving a commitment from Edina senior Will DeBerg.  He joins current Tommies Tyler Nicolai, Peter Leslie, and Fritz Waldvogel.  Let the battle begin!

2) Owatonna senior big man Taylor Steinbauer visited Bemidji State this weekend and may decide to try his hand with the Beavers instead of with the Gusties or Johnnies.
