Boston College hockey coach gets his Pokey on

We’d hit it

Boston College womens hockey coach Tom Mutch resigned abruptly on Tuesday after allegations of inappropriate conduct with one of his players. While the BC athletic director initially cited Mutch’s desire to pursue other career interests, it turns out that he was romantically linked to his top scorer, Kelli Stack.

Mutch was busted when sexually graphic text messages were discovered on Stack’s old cell phone by a teammate. Sadly, Boston College is a private college and we can’t use the Freedom of Informaction Act like Mitch Mustain did to request Houston Nutt’s cell phone records. However, the text messages were described as “filthy. They were very sexual in nature.” Shane Warne would be proud.

Oh yeah, Mutch is 39 years old and married. ~~High Five~~ For shame!

USC Trojan Mickey Meyer decided that he had had enough of the refs and decided to moon the crowd in Utah. This is in a game in which USCicehockey.com describes as a lackluster effort following a late Friday game and having to play at 10AM on Saturday. In any case, the Trojans 6-4 and the goalie was ejected from the game and cited for lewdness.

According to the play by play broadcasters, he got a huge ovation from the crowd and had the Oregon players in stitches. However, not everyone was amused. The North Park County Attorney’s office is deciding whether to file criminal charges.

While the antics might have played well in Socal but the folks in Utah are upset over the incident. Here is the last reader comment from the article:

I’ve read a few of the comments since I explained that my little girls were shocked by what he did. When he “mooned” us, he showed us more than his behind (every one who was there knows what I mean). We’re going to make sure that he is prosecuted and that he pays for what he did.

Yikes. On everyone’s parts.
