Jeff is in the process of completing a 5.0 million-dollar renovation of
the Norris Arena;  has a roster loaded with young talent;  is working on
a $150,000 home overlooking Lake Superior;  and,  quite frankly,  doesn't
want to be the next Brian Sutter.  Not to mention the fact that he
doesn't want to watch Lacher's weight yo-yo on a daily basis ever again.
 
At this stage,  he has no interest in leaving LSSU.  When he does leave,
he will probably become an assistant at the NHL level first.  Jeff's
never been convinced that a successful college coach can just jump into
the NHL and guide a team.  It's a different world with different problems,
which require different techniques and solutions.
 
Feel free to speculate.  The most important thing on his mind right now
is catching a 40-inch Northern Pike.
