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.

USCHO story says "Appert guided the Engineers to a 10-18-8 record in 2016-17."
I thought we finished 8-28-1 this season (I'd gladly take the 2 extra wins, 10 fewer losses and 7 additional ties, but it probably wouldn't have saved Appert's job).

Here's my list of possible candidates although the search should start and end with Ben Barr:

not surprising, but I wonder if he would be interested

Re: RPI 2017 Off-Season: We March 4th into the Future
I'm not filled with confidence.
Like I said... they all went to college in Georgia and none of them have a background in hockey from what I can see. The sports recruiter, who appears to be the son of the founder, specifically mentions football, basketball and baseball. And prior to doing this he worked for Nissan.
I'm not filled with confidence.

They are off by 10 years. We were 10-18-8 in 06-07.

You certainly are correct.
