Re: RPI III: Revenge of the Seth
Originally posted by Wicked Slappaahs View PostWell that's a fine theory, but it isn't very realistic. I'd be willing to bet that if the Leafs or the Hawks came calling on you with a check with five zeros, you'd have a decision to make. Properly invested, someone could buy a lot of education, play the game they love AND still have some $$$ left to learn how to talk to girls.
Jerry said it himself in that radio interview: "My dream has always been to play in the NHL..when they want me, I'll go..." I don't think that should come as a surprise to anyone.

T/U video link below details the Vodka distilling company two RPI grads have started in Maine. I can already hear Doc making plans for a summer road trip .

Re: RPI III: Revenge of the Seth
Originally posted by Ralph Baer View PostI expect both Pirri and D'Amigo to return next season. I can't predict what happens after that. Obviously, I want both to stay for four years. Be that as it may, I hope we get into the NCAA tourney in 2011. We should have a good shot if we don't lose anyone we are counting on.
This could change after next year's Junior tournament if Jerry is lights out again and does it all alone. He had a great tournament this year but some folks might think Stepan had a lot to do with that. If Jerry does it again next year on his own (and the Leafs still stink) then the pressure to get him increases.
In my opinion he should stay as long as possible. It is just as easy to work on skating and size in college as it is in the minors - which is where he will likely be headed if he leaves prior to his junior year.

Deciding to play for RPI (or, quite frankly, at the college level period) puts him at a huge advantage versus playing Major Juniors, in the event something unfortunate does happen that ends his hockey career. While of course getting a full degree would (educationally) be the ideal, even two years' worth of an RPI education puts him at a distinct advantage. There's plenty to be learned at RPI both inside and outside of the classroom.
I think you should step away from Shirley Ann's Red Kool-Aid for a bit.
No one mentioned education.
