Quite a shock if this is true.  I would have thought the race was between Grillo and Bothwell, with maybe DiGiulian (the assistant) having an outside shot.

I wouldn't want to be the Union AD right now, but it's not impossible to find a decent coach this late.  I recall another ECAC program that made a pretty good hire late in July about eight years ago...

reports are true, accepted yesterday, wants to tell Union players today and starts at Vermont tomorrow.  3 year contract at $100,000, had a one year deal at Union.

Casey Jones applied for Vermont.  Good luck to him if he applies for Union also.

For his sake, I hope he doesn't get stuck with the Union job :-)

Why? It is a great stepping-stone job. :-D
