In response to hoops123
Regarding Cormier: Perplexed and disturbed by the firing of Cormier--like many others--I looked at his record. Looked at the Kenpom stats, and saw the steady growth in key stats, in recruiting, and in rankings at Dartmouth. At a time when the Ivy was rising, he kept pace and then some. Look at where he started and where he ended, both in rankings and in wins.
Cormier is the most successful coach over the last 60 years at Dartmouth. His record, I found, is the result of inheriting nothing but rebuilding projects at each of his stints.
I have heard from insiders, too, both at Dartmouth and in the coaching world. Including prominent alumni who played for him. Essentially, the opposite of what you are spreading about him H123. So I guess we roll in different circles.
Regarding McClaughlin, the rumors of his hire... Doubtful. He is having a tough start but he is young and deserves the time and space. He has it in him, and I'm confident he'll rise to the challenge.
