The motto around the program has always been “leave BGSU better than you found it” and while there was a setback after the 2019 NCAA appearance, the program appears to be back on track.
My prediction still stands: BGSU will make the NCAA Tournament this year.
I really don't think ppl realize how cool it is to see BG hockey where it's at rn. This is a program that won a natty in 1984, nearly got cut in 2009, went 29 years without an NCAA tourney appearance and has dealt with some rough seasons and the whole hazing scandal. Credit to @vandermerwe63 for bringing Dennis Williams back to BG. An alum who was here during that 5-win season in 09-10, went on to win World Junior gold with Canada and now has this team playing some damn good hockey. Starting to see the fruits of that hire. 4-0 in CCHA play for the first time since 94-95, back to back conference sweeps and Slater is rocking again. Just really cool to see considering everything this program and its fans have been through. A lot of ppl fought to keep BG hockey alive and I think we're finally starting to see something special being built here.
As a first-time voter in 2016, the political PTSD of 2016 and 2024 shattered my faith in the American people. It can’t be overstated how much this blue wave and repudiation of MAGA means. For the first time in years, I’m proud to be an American 🇺🇸
My prediction: BG returns to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2019. They gotta take care of business within their conference, but if they can beat Notre Dame, split with Denver (at worst), and win enough games, an at-large bid could be in play. Gotta keep winning!
If I had to guess, this is probably a remote broadcast done in some sort of studio. Notice how there’s no nat sound from the arena? It’s incredibly hard to call a game off a monitor, let alone when there’s no stadium crowd noise to go off of
Both things can be true at the same time. Is it fair to look back at tweets when you were 15? Maybe not, but young broadcasters are taught to clean up their social medias so this doesn’t happen. Just like a hot mic, assume it’s always on. Same goes for social media.

I know I’m biased, but I’ve always said that BG should throw most of their resources to the hockey program, not football. I understand there’s big $$$ with football, but hockey is the only sport on campus that can realistically compete for a national championship every year.
I will put out a state of the program blog today but my general thoughts are this:
- BG will get things back on track. Were consistently good at football and will be soon enough
- it stinks seeing toledo with the coach most of us wanted however i can always respect taking a big swing on coach George
- there will be growing pains with the hire of a coach who has been coaching for 3 years versus a coach like Loeffler who was a coach for THIRTY years
- it only takes one bad hire to tank a program. No MAC program has enough resources to overcome a bad coaching staff. When you get Urban Meyer, Dave Clawson, Dino Babers you eventually get a Mike Jinks
- BG needs to commit everything to football and get things turned around before the next split of FBS football happens. There needs to be hard conversations on whether or not Coach George can grow into a job usually suited for someone with 10X the experience. Having a roster of 70% underclassmen makes zero sense in a portal era where 60% of those players could leave in three months. The play caller he fired is now turning UMass into a winner while our offense flounders over the past 14 games. This is the same offense that couldnt score 21 points against Lafayette and couldnt hold a massive lead against kent state
That’s @BGSUHKY legend Ken Morrow
#StanleyCup trivia time ⏰
Who is the only American to win an Olympic Gold Medal and a Stanley Cup in the same year? 🏆🥇
If Roloson was healthy in 2006, if Kane was healthy in 2024 and if Hyman was healthy in 2025 the Oilers have 3 Cups

@CollegePuckNXT
the @BuffaloSabres waited so long to have an X next to their name they got a Y instead
Brutal take here by @Buccigross. I can’t help but think what about schools like Bowling Green? They are the only sport on campus that has a realistic chance of winning another national championship. Would they get relegated because they’re in the CCHA? Stop shrinking the game.
“Just breaking away from the NCAA, just start your own federation.”
@Buccigross gives his idea to save college hockey.

Bowling Green is a true hockey town, and BGSU Hockey head coach Dennis Williams ’01, ’03 knows it firsthand.
With sold-out crowds, renewed energy and a program on the rise, Dennis Williams’ journey back to BGSU is a story of resilience and growth. In his second season at the helm of his alma mater, Coach "Willy" tells his story of coaching in junior hockey, where he became one of the most respected coaches in North America and looks back at his year as the interim coach of BGSU Hockey during the 2009-10 season.

If the #LetsGoOilers fired Knoblauch now, would the new coach bump even exist? Gotta wait 3 weeks for your next game. Yeah, there might be some lift, but I figure the dust would already be settled by then.
The #LetsGoOilers needed a goalie. They went out and got a goalie. Now they need a goalie.
Just a reminder you technically don’t need to win 3 games in a row in the playoffs #LetsGoOilers
