Originally posted by Unregistered View PostHC will need to step up its schedule if they want to compete with the likes of Northeastern, UMASS, PC etc as one of the region's better teams. A winning schedule for one season is a good first step, but to continue to pummel teams like Albany and Siena is not going to help build the program into one of repute.

HC is one of the under funded D1 programs and now because of what is happening in other conference they have ended up trying to compete against fully funded top 100 programs like BU. It is a mismatch. Even PC is putting more resources into soccer than HC is. The concept of an academically focused Patriot League sounded good 20 years ago when it was launched but now that whole dream has gone out the window with more conference schools funding increasingly more scholarships each passing year. At this point HC is just coming off as cheap and with their heads in the sand while the world around them is chasing a sports business model. They need to figure out is they want to pony up and play the game the way it is being played or get out of D1 altogether. Until they do that recruiting or a new coach won't make any difference.

HC is smart. What exactly does a competitive women's soccer program get them? Nada.

Here comes the D3 crowd again, projecting their value structure onto the rest of the world. The HC education wasn't being criticized, their athletic philosophy was. Time for that group to realize that D1 athletics are about way more than just the education, even at a place like HC. Some of you might want to read this article http://www.ncsasports.org/blog/2015/...ge-their-time/ about the time commitment typically found in at the D1 level. With it as a context, when schools like HC half ass their athletic programs like they do they are dishonoring the kids who are in them busting their butts. That is shameful. The old adage applies .. "piss or get off the pot". Either play the game the way the rest of the level is doing it or get out of the game altogether.

Syracuse (133)
UNH (164)
Villanova (183)
Sacred Heart (236)
Quinnipiac (313)
UVM (289)
These schools must be really short changing their student athletes.
