UNH HC Sean McDonnell goes on leave

... for health reasons. Ricky Santos has been named interim HC.

All the Ivy League needs to become relevant again is to diversify its OOC schedule.

UGH, I have a picture of super QB Mike Granieri in a leg brace at UD when Santos had to come in as a no-name freshman. Game was in the bag with the Hens leading. He beat the Hens two more times in the next three years. I hate that guy. Too bad the Hens knocked out Granieri.

Said this on the JMU board:
I’ve said on a # of occsions 2004-2017 that thought McDonnell was the best HC in the CAA because he did the mostest with the leastest.
-Hardly took any transfers.
-Not many 2-3 star recruits.
-Until 2016 terrible facilities, amongst the worst, if not the worst in the CAA.
Yet 14 straight playoff appearances. Granted never made the NC game. Did make 2 semis. If he had been the HC at JMU during the same period, think JMU would have had a couple more NCs..

Hope he is able to recover from whatever his health issue is.
