may not be bad...could be good to get revenue for the conference if they advance.

Those are shockers even in the Covid year.  UMBC and UVM seemed to be a notch above the rest of the league and both are out.  League ending up with parity in the top 7 teams but of course our Danes could not take advantage of that and now need a new coach and probably half a new roster.  Shows us how mediocre UA has been past few years and falling back to the pack.

Tides come and go .... teams fortunes are similar .... UVM was where UAlbany is today.... what change, Hofstra, Towson, Delaware and Drexel left the AE...UVM stayed with their coach and a couple of players later success....soldier up ... things may get better in a year or two or perhaps longer

Vermont has 3 title in the last decade...only one other program has 3. All those regular season titles mean nothing to me as an AE school unless you make the dance. When you can't get over the hump with "power house" squads, you need to move on. Many schools and professional teams do that.

It might not mean anything to you, but It means consistency. Regular seasons going 9-7 or 10-6 finishing in 4th place isn’t going to bring people into the stands or excitement year after year. 14/15 and 15/16 seasons were the most packed its ever been. It’s because they finished 15-1 and 13-3 respectively and not because they went to the tournament going 9-7 two previous years. 
 

They’ve wiped the year by year statistics on the athletics website, but they were no doubt were averaging 3600+ close to leading the conference in attendance in 14/15 and 15/16.

I was wrong about the 3600+. Closer to 3200. Pulled the attendance numbers from the ncaa website. This just goes to my point that regular season definitely does matter in bringing fans into the building.

He no doubt caught a bad break with this Covid season. I would have liked to see him get another chance, but at what cost? Did he deserve the same pay? How long would you have extended him and if you did and his teams performed the same would it then be ok to part ways?

Maybe the stupidest quote in a long long time . Vermont has been a POWER over the last decade.  They have owned UA recently. Their record is wayyyy better over the last several years. Please .......

 

I know this is a message board where people have opinions but please look at the records, the conference records,  ect ... its really not even close .... 

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic and insinuating Brown shouldn't have been fired for lack of titles in previous years because he has just as many as Becker in the same timespan.

Why worry about who is in or who was left on the bubble....or your team was knock out in the conference second round....when you can drink your concerns away with this fine brew from The Chatham Brewery:
