    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    Combined attendance for the entire weekend against two name opponents who have at least some box office value was 3,005. Ouch!!! At this pace, freighting to think what the combined total will be for the Yale- Brown weekend who added together have about as much drawing power appeal as a used...

    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    Walking that far or standing in the cold waiting for the bus to make the loop from the previous Fieldhouse trip is OK for the more invested fan. Did it myself a number of times until repurchasing a parking pass this year. However, the subject matter was about the CASUAL FAN and they would have...

    HOBART HOCKEY 2025-2026 REIGNING THREE -PEAT D3 HOCKEY CHAMPIONS

    It's a little easier for us in the East to keep tabs on Skidmore Hockey. The Saratoga paper is sold at convenience stores walkable from my house and that paper regularly has articles covering the team. Thus, anyone interested knows they graduated a herd of guys who accounted for most of their...

    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    You forgot 11-1 to Western Ontario on night three of the Christmas Tournament. Most notable thing about that game was that after playing their three years at RPI (freshman could not play varsity in the 1960's) both RPI Hall of Famer Jerry Knightly along with Bruce Tisdale did their post grad...

    Especially when they charge $8.50 per 5 to 6 ounces of a below mid grade brand of wine coming out of a 20 ounce bottle that costs no more than $10 including tax at any local liquor store. Quite a profit margin per bottle for a brand that people that appreciate and know their wines basically...

    The casual fan is also just not going to attend if they can't just drive there and park their ------- car!!! No, the casual fan has absolutely no interest whatsoever in paying $80 a year for a parking pass just to attend a few games a year. That is the only way you can get into any of the four...

    Friday attendance 1,308. Knew something was wrong when I drove up to the place and there were absolutely no parking lot attendants to be found anywhere. You could have pulled into any of the available spots in any of the lots for free and without a parking pass as there was no one there to stop...

    Last night's replay credit to Tom Coughlin https://www.empire8network.com/utica/?B=2886986. What a game, what a win! Whenever you think a 1-8 start is bad and your team is the worst of the worst and absolutely no one at any level can screw up as bad your team, check out this collage of brain...

    HOBART HOCKEY 2025-2026 REIGNING THREE -PEAT D3 HOCKEY CHAMPIONS

    OOPS!!! Disregard. My bad. Meant to post it on the D1 board under RPI as we could all use a good laugh about now. Obviously, I didn't do it right.

    Saying one of our power plays was bad and we deserved to be booed sure is different from anything in the past. On one occasion almost four decades ago in the late 80"s RPI, though eventually winning, played a very lackluster game against a weak opponent (forgot who) and heard the boo birds a...

    No sellouts in a building that only holds 2,300 for hockey. Even opening night came up about 60 short. Friday was almost 200 short of a sellout which is really bad since you had the pad of nearby RPI fans (not to mention the band). Suspect it is even worse than the numbers indicate seeing that...

    HOBART HOCKEY 2025-2026 REIGNING THREE -PEAT D3 HOCKEY CHAMPIONS

    Learned a long time ago to not really read too much into results of exhibition games, especially when only watching the last 10 minutes. Nonetheless, the only Capital District D3 hockey program just lit up Utica 6-3 clinching it with two empty netters. For those 10 minutes the locals skated step...

    Nobody wants them to succeed and raise enough money to be competitive again after two decades of being anything but more than me. Just wish I could see a path that would make it worth stripping off the name of the person responsible for building the place in 1949 and replacing it with some...

    Corporate sponsor for naming rights at the HFH??? The place is hardly ever open anymore!!! About a dozen and a half men's hockey games a year, about the same amount of women's games and then a few more venue openings here and there for stage performers no one has ever heard off until they walk...

    We're clean!!! The only time we ever set foot in the place was when a long time station kitty show host who lived in our neighborhood arranged a tour of the facility for the kids that lived nearby. We were probably the only kids in the entire Capital District viewing area who knew the guy's real...

    Hockey on Friday and both football and hockey on Saturday were all listed on the broadcast schedule per the WRPI website. Reasonable guess is that the really old transmitter they use located in North Greenbush (some four miles away from campus) went on the fritz again. The thing has proven to...

    Yesterday's' win picked up one spot in the newer fangled NPI rating system they are using these days. They are now #28 nationally out of the 241 programs that play D3 football. Unfortunately, even if they keep winning, staying there is going to be a heavy lift. The next three games are, in...

    Overall great work!!! However, there is one thing that I am just not getting. It is my understanding that the Ivy League institutions in ALL sports will have no involvement of any kind with NIL or redshirting. I am also under the impression that they will have next to nothing to do with the...

    RPI 2025–26: Off the Critical List and In Recovery

    Just for comparison sake. The previous women's coach's record over 12 years was 144-217-49 for a winning percent of 411 (better by about 90 points). What did that coach get??? Canned by an Athletic Director emeritus!!! Based on an "analysis" of the data available, cannot answer your question of...
