That was at Union. Not sure it was ever confirmed that he actually was guilty but he and then Union president Roger Hull were at odds right from day one. hardness wanted to make the hockey team a D3 national champions and then go D1 while Hull had a very low opinion of college athletics in general.  It was a match that was doomed to failure

Union, like RPI, St Lawrence and Clarkson are D-III schools who play "up" in hockey.  NCAA rules forbid athletic scholarships in any sport but  RPI, Clarkson and St Lawrence maintain their "grandfathered" status since their scholarships predate the rule change. Union, not so.

In the late 50's,early 60's, Cornell absorbed two NY state public universities! the SUNY college of Forestry and a SUNY Ag and Tech school.  Although Cornell took over the administration of these schools, they were kept on the books as separate entities.  As such, students of these two schools were eligible to participate in Cornell activities but we're not bound by all the rules Cornell had to abide by as an Ivy.  Hockey players were brought in as students in these two schools are we're able to skirt the no scholarship rules.  My friend told me that the hockey team in those days was jokingly referred to as the Future Farmers of Canada.  Again, I cannot attest to the truth of this.  I'm just saying....
