          It's true:

          And I'm feeling more optimistic already.

                Wow. Can't believe that SAJ bought out all those years remaining on his contract. I guess it is true about nice guys finishing last (or at least next to last).
                The most interesting question now will be about the recruits. Will they still be coming to RPI next season (or beyond)?

                    No but considering he gets paid for 3 more years (or is it four?) I don't think you need to feel too bad.

                    Now... let the speculation begin... Alum? D1 assistant? D3 head that looks promising? I for one would like to see someone with ties to the Northeast. It's absurd that Troy is 30 minutes from Mass and yet we can't seem to get any recruits from New England. We should average 1 recruit a season from one of CT, RI or MA in my opinion.

                        Or maybe whoever the new coach is will bring in someone who he already recruited for his old school.

                          Anything is possible but I wouldn't expect that.

                            Considering the program's hideous performance on and off the ice, I don't feel bad. At all.

                              so much for the widely-held belief that "Appert isn't going anywhere"

                                We've engaged Parker Executive Search to find a coach? ??? How about picking a few alums... maybe even Fridge and letting them figure it out. You can't tell me that there is some type of consulting service that actually knows something about coaching hockey!

                                Here's a D3 suggestion: Gary Heenan (Utica College). He put that program on the map, went to an academically challenging school, and is from NY. We need someone that can rebuild the program and also build community interest. That is exactly what Heenan did there.
