To HC 1965, do you really think that they will up-grade the baseball program? The basketball and football teams are the only money producing teams on campus and they will not even put any effort into improving or trying to get into a better league. The AD has to go, it's that simple.

Stop your Dick Regan bashing. HC is headed in the right direction. He trying his best to upgrade with limited means.

Obviously you are not paying attention because both the football and the basketball teams are losing money. Football is just an expensive sport with a lot of players, equipment, coaches, etc. In regards to basketball, take 12 full rides at $40,000 (480,000), four full-time coaches ($300,000 for Willard and 3 x $40,000 for the assistants= $420,000). That is $900,000 before a game is played. Travel, equipment etc just adds on and HC does't come close to selling out or have a tv contract.

So essentially there are no mone producing teams on campus

HCFAN is right on the money, Regan is not the right man for the AD job.

HC in the PL will always lose $$ in FB and BB.

In all fairness 1AA FB is a losing proposition no matter where you are. BB is a different story. If HC is spending that much for coaches in the PL, it's like buying a BMW and not having the $$ to put gas in it and it sits in the driveway.

You don't keep doing things halfway! Reading the press so far in hockey, you can see the halfway mentality. "We want it but, we are happy where we are, we want to compete at a higher level, but we don't know if we want to add scholarships" YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS!

The present attitude at HC is Eletist=Defeatist. Eletist, because HC always thinks they are too good for everybody, and Defeatist because thay don't think they are good enough?? Makes no sense..

As a fan this is very disturbing, Alums, must feel worse.
