In addition to a big article on Milbury being asked back to BC, there was a small blerp on p. 40, after an article on Gord Kluzak, that discusses the situation at BC and Maine. It is sort of tucked away and easily missable if you don't look for it, but it's there. quoted material: The Boston College Athletic department is scrambling to cover up some odious business in the hockey program. It appears four of five hockey players and recruits have been threatened with the loss of promised scholarships. Although a college has the right to pull an athletic scholarship if it so desires, it is unethical, to say the least. The BC players involved were re- cruited by other schools who promised scholarships. Now the parents find themselves faced with the possibility of having to pay thousands of dollars in tuition to keep the players in school. It isn't right. These players and their parents shoulc get everything that was promised... BC's problems pale in comparison to what might happen to Maine when the NCAA finishes investigating that hockey program. Informed sources say the first wave of investigators uncovered enough to warrant a second phase. The word is that if the NCAA people can get the testimony on the record to support their suspicions, Maine hockey is in big trouble... Before we leave BC hockey, let's set the record straight. The board of directors did talk about Chet Gladchuk and the problems in the athletic program. It just wasn't discussed in the official board meeting room. And it wasn't discussed by all members. Some of them couldn't care less about athletics and are more attuned to the academic well-being of the institution. But when the "official" meeting was over, several board members, over drinks, did exchange words about their unhappines with Gladchuk's stewardship as athletic director. end quoted material This article was written by Will McDonough.
