Sounds like BG is getting some scoring help this season. Austen Swankler, a forward who last played for the Erie Otters of the OHL in 2019-2020, is expected to join the Falcons’ roster this season. eliteprospects.com/player/298560/…
10:34
Because of Covid he didn’t play during the 2020-2021 season, so the expectation is he’ll be fully eligible to begin the season.

Maybe I’m biased, but if it’s the NCAA’s job to verify eligibility then this falls squarely on them.
If BG falsified any records or the appeal I’m sure it’ll be handled and dealt with accordingly, but this sounds like the NCAA dropped the ball.

Hearing NCAA decision granting eligibility to ex-OHL player Austen Swankler at Bowling Green is grinding gears around college hockey. Looks to be similar to Brayden Gelsinger going to Lake Superior in 2016 from WHL after NCAA error

More updates on Austen Swankler’s eligibility: we’ve dug around and found out that Swankler went to the NCAA directly to apply for eligibility. He reached out to BG to see if they were interested.
BG was not involved in his eligibility application in any way.

The NCAA failed to properly vet his application with their rules regarding the CHL. They made the decision to not rescind their original ruling of declaring him eligible.
1:15
Important to note: Swankler was deemed eligible before reaching out.

Well, my time in the U.P. has come to an end. My wife has accepted a job in the Twin Cities, so next weekend (Aug. 14-15) , I’m heading home. It’s been a fun ride covering NMU and U.P. sports. I hope you all stick around as I have an idea I’m working on that I hope to launch soon

Former Miami, and now St. Thomas, head coach Enrico Blasi’s response to questions about Aldrich’s 2013 departure from Miami: “I don’t know why he left. You’d have to talk to the school’s legal department.”
A 27-year-old male filed a complaint in 2018 with Miami University police, alleging former hockey coach Brad Aldrich "took me under his wing" and then committed a sex offence against him in fall of 2012.
Case was closed when the alleged victim dropped case, a FOIA request shows.

$150 for a full season or $30/ month (same prices as last season). That ties Atlantic Hockey (who also utilizes Flo) as the most expensive streaming service in college hockey.
Will be interesting to see if the “investments” make that price worth it in the CCHA.

In full disclosure one FloHockey sun gets you the CCHA, Atlantic Hockey, and the ECHL. The venn diagram of those fans is probably pretty small though.

The report states Aldrich did assault 2 men at Miami in fall 2012, but concludes the university "acted appropriately in response to each allegation."
