Re: RPI 2017 Off-Season: We March 4th into the Future
I guess I'll close out the thread. Give Smith a chance to turn the team around. If the team is behind him, the administration is behind him, and the RPI community is behind him, then we, as fans, should be too. He had alot of work to do, but if he believes he can turn the team around, then I have no reason to doubt him as of yet. Yes, his record is almost exactly like the guy he is replacing, but there could have been a myriad of reasons for that, much like Appert. Personally, and this opinion is not on behalf of anyone at WRPI, I think some of the players were starting to lose faith, as has been mentioned on here. Let's see what Smith can do, and if it doesn't work out in five years, I hate to say it, but start again.
