The Patroon level of donation status changes over time. The longer you've been an alum, the more you have to donate. This is why you may see a sizeable chunk of young alums in the Patroon Room (just graduated is $100, 1-5 yrs I believe is $250).

What's uncool is when they send young alumni the same donation cards they do for those who have been out of school for 30+ years. Oh thanks RPI for letting me know a donation of $1.6 million will give me a named professorship! Kinda just feels like a slap in the face.

Whatever method they're using to calculate the fee it isn't working as the crowd in the room this year has thinned measurably. The economy certainly has something to do with this.

Hockey on Campus Live 12/16/2009!
Tonight's two-hour edition of HOC will feature BC (hottest team in the country) Head Coach Jerry York at 7:30, a visit with recent US Hockey Hall of Fame inductee Tony Amonte early in the evening, a chat with RPI Head Coach Seth Appert, and check-ins from our regular media guests Adam Wodon of collegehockeynews.com and Eliot Olshansky with a mid-season Hobey Watch report.

I hope Seth doesn't have to talk with Wodon or Olshansky because then it'll turn into a "My Ivy League team is better/smarter than you" fest.

Thanks, Mike. I wonder whom SA was recruiting in Fargo.

Probably a good bet someone playing in this game.

Possible candidates for recruitment(read: uncommitted):

Des Moines
H.T. Lenz: He's a 5'10" 175 forward, but he's also an '89. He's putting up decent scoring numbers for a team that doesn't score much.
Austin Coldwell: He's a 6'1" 190 defenseman and a '90. 6 goals, 6 assists this year and not much to report PIM-wise.
Brandon Carlson: 6'2" 200 defenseman who is a '92. 3 goals, 3 assists, 50 PIM and a team low -17 +/-. All three of his goals are power play goals.

Fargo
Garrett Allen: 5'11" 170 forward and a '92. Fargo seems to score even less than Des Moines does, but Allen is putting up respectable numbers. 9 goals, 7 assists in 24 games.
Grant Scott: 6'2" 210 defenseman and a '90. Fargo's site isn't one much for elaborate statistics but he's got 1 goal and 5 assists.
Chad Demers: 5'10" 175 forward and a '90. 3 goals and 5 assists in 20 games. Yawn.
Brian Cooper: 5'9" 175 forward and a '93. 2 goals, 2 assists in 21 games.
Oleg Yevenko: 6'7" 225 defenseman and a '91 from Belarus. 1 goal, 2 assists in 20 games. I'd imagine he's a defensive specialist. His weight would indicate he's not an iceberg either.

Just some food for thought and snooping around. I was bored so, hey, why not?

Grant Scott is a US U-18 alum who was one of those rare non-Minnesotans to commit to the University of Minnesota. He quit the Gophers after only one game (read: Lucia wasn't giving him any playing time) and Dean Blais took him in at Fargo (which is quickly becoming a top NAHL program even without Blais). Given our need for some more defensemen, his background, and Blais' bonafide eye for talent, I really hope Scott's the one (or one of the ones) on our radar.

Maybe Seth could have Jerry ask Dean Blais about him while they're in Saskatoon. :p

Yevenko might be fun too, on his size alone.

RC, Fargo is now in the USHL. It indeed used to be in the NAHL.

Getting Scott and Yevenko could have DrD moving back to Troy just to see these guys.
It would make all his dreams come true.:D

I'd hope that means Yevenko being 6'7" 225 means he's a fast wrecking ball and not a beanpole. :D

He's only 19, so he'll certainly fill out a bit with time and a few "special" milkshakes...According to dropyourgloves.com he's won 60% of his fights in the USHL...so he's no patsie. :D

Schedule Note for 2010/2011:

The folks at SaveUAHHockey.com have an interview with UAH head coach Danton Cole and there's a couple of notes for RPI fans to take note of for next season.

UAH will come to Troy to take part in the Holiday Tournament once again. They were here three tournaments ago where they lost to Notre Dame in the opening round.

Also, RPI will be going to UAH to help lend a hand to the UAH program since the CCHA decided to bone them over for next season. From that video, UAH is getting a lot of help from some big schools which is great to see. Ferris State, Michigan State, Wisconsin, RPI and Cornell are all reaching out to UAH and give them some help in making a full schedule for next season.

So... Who wants to go to Huntsville next season? :D

Does anyone know anything else about the OOC schedule next season? All that I know is one or more likely two games in Huntsville, Bentley at the HFH, the Governor's Cup in Lake Placid, and UAH in our tourney (may not be our opponent). I expect that BU will return this year's game, but I don't think that it has been confirmed. I would expect from what SA has been saying that there is another nonconference game vs. Union besides for the probablity that we play them in the first round in LP.
