Technically, He is building and not rebuilding....

Legend is correct.

That incident with the campus cop was pretty funny. Great story overall.

I'm in, lets schedule a doubleheader now with St Josephs playing game 1, UConn game 2 - GO Bluejays!

That tidbit definitely caught my eye.

Jim is not playing pay exhibition games against the NCAA D1 big boys until the St. Joe’s program matures.

I'm sure he meant a doubleheader with a DIII game to open and a DI game to follow.

If Dogdeacon didn't mean "lets schedule a doubleheader now with St Josephs playing game 1, UConn game 2", that's certainly what he typed. Quite frankly, ... hate when such things happen!

High profile piece in NYPost on a nice little story that many outside of Ct were not aware of but we have been hearing about this for forever (it only seems). I will never stop appreciating what Coach has done to bring us to where we even have this board but my big concern right now is whether Hurley will be able to bring the program back to some good level. It’s a Division 3 team and it’s going to continue to be a big deal in the state media as long as he does it I guess, but there is a level of fatigue hearing about it building.

Reading comprehension is secondary to name dropping. Quite frankly Dan won't schedule even a doubleheader with Mr. Calhoun's Bluejays out of respect.

Will his wins at St. Joseph's count towards his overall win total?

 

[UConnNick]

Will his wins at St. Joseph's count towards his overall win total?

If you mean at the NCAA D-I level, no. He had a couple of wins taken off his D-I win total because his Northeastern team played a couple Canadian teams and won.

As for overall win total irrespective of divisions, then all his wins count toward a grand total. He may still have a few D-II wins from his very early years at Northeastern. They upgraded to D-I shortly after he started.
