Chris looked decent last year, but if we want to come back strong we'll need him to step up, and I'm really interested to see how the freshmen is.

I ended up getting a couple of the RIT Door Mats.

They were out o fthem in Henrietta, but Greece had 7(5 now) as of yesterday.

Is it me, or is RIT recruits list on Hiesenbergs site always seem small? He must not have all the info or something...

Heisenberg hasn't missed a recruit since the Tigers moved to DI and made it to his list. It currently shows Brandon Thompson (F 5'11" 165lbs), and Matt Garbowsky (C 5'10" 170lbs), who were signed last year and will be coming to Rochester in the 2011-2012 season.

Both recruits, being in the BCHL, started their season 2 weeks ago. In 4 games with Langley, Thompson has 1g, 3a. Garbowsky in 5 games with Powell River has 5g, 6a. I would expect both of them to be among the league leaders in scoring this season.

Garbowski in 51 games last year had a line of 27g 26a 53pt

Thompson in 57 games last year had a line of 16g 45a 61pt

Unlike Mercyhurst who seems to bring in a ton of recruits every year, Wilson & Co have brought in just enough to replenish what they've lost. Quality over Quantity I guess. Sure can't argue with the results. Escpecially if they uncover a few sleepers like Tanev on a regular basis.

On another note...10 days until the season starts! Can we hit the 1000 post mark to close out this thread?!

If my math is correct, it would take 50 pages for this thread to reach 1000 at 20 post per page.

Currently just under 760 quality posts.

I wouldn't say easy (unless by we, you mean fans since that IS easy). If RIT does not finish top two of the WESTERN pod, they play in the play in round. And the West is loaded.

Exactly.
One or two slip-ups and RIT is in third or fourth place in the pod (and probably overall), easily. Which means an extra play-in game just to get to the quarter-finals. Let's not even think about what may happen if the four teams that can give the Tigers a serious run (NU, RMU, AFA, MC) all have great seasons and RIT fails to replenish the depleted defense. Someone in this pod is going to be on the road for a play-in game even though they may be 5th, 6th, or 7th overall in the conference. (What a joke, IMHO).
That being said, I still believe RIT will be in the top 3 (or 4, at worst) , if not first overall.
I am slightly surprised at the slight lack of respect given to Niagara (and even Robert Morris, for that matter) in the poll. Don't be fooled by their poor records from last season. Their CHA and OOC schedules were much tougher top to bottom than any in the AHA. They both had to play multiple games against Bemidji, who spent much of last season in the top 5 in the nation. Also, the CHA did send two teams to the tournament, both of which came frighteningly close to advancing to the second round like RIT did. I would have predicted NU to win the conference with RIT, RMU, and MC having a battle royale for the second bye. Despite the records, I still can't get over the fact that RIT has still not beaten NU at the D-I level (or RMU either - in only two games). So I have a hard time picking RIT, MC, or AFA ahead of a CHA cast-off at this point. Let's hope I am proven dead wrong (with respect to one of those teams, that is:) ).

The RITsports twitter just posted a picture of special black jerseys for the brick city game.

I was expecting not to like them, like the pink ones, but these are actually pretty nice. I wouldn't want them to be the everyday jerseys, but for a special event they look good. There's still enough orange in them that you know who they're skating for.

I'd buy one of those over a pink one any day for a fundraiser
