In today's issue (#186), I have a packed update on the open assistant positions, including hirings at Robert Morris and St. Cloud State. Plus, there's a movement towards a hire at Michigan State for its second assistant opening and UMass is interviewing candidates to replace Jared DeMichiel. On top of that, the frontrunner for the Michigan State job could create an opening elsewhere, and there are new openings at Mercyhurst and LIU. A former GM/head coach is returning to the USHL. What's going on at Michigan? Then a portal update includes two players signing pro deals and a new commitment for Maine as well as commitments for Guelph (USports), Geneseo (D-III), and Wilkes (D-III).
