And go Brown! If we're going to be eliminated, we might as well have lost to the champions.

I'd rather see the roof cave in and both teams have to forfeit.

As for that beer, if you're ever coming out this way, like for the State Fair, you can always pay up then.

I am rooting for Brown. I don't want Union to do something we have never done, get three bids in a row.

Union beating Yale was when our chances fell to 0%. That said, I think you should consider our last game played as the end of our season.

That's my thought also as to when our season ended.

I some things happen-both Union and Yale could be ousted from the field. This does seem the year for strange things and lots of upsets. I have no further interest though-my team has been eliminated from consideration so I can go back to the rest of my life(for about 190+ days now).

That's too obvious. All I'm saying is that Niagara ended our season a day earlier than it had to by guaranteeing an autobid. So I'm looking for poetic justice here. Enough autbids and they are on the outside with only themselves to blame. We at least battled and in reality outplayed a team (Brown) that has smoked everyone else in the ECAC so far. There's no shame in that.

Unfortunately, with Yale losing to Quinnipiac in the consolation, Niagara can't miss the tournament.

If anyone is wondering who Kasdorf is competing with as far as the Winnipeg system is concerned, one of his peers is starting for UML tonight --- Connor Hellebuyck 6'4 200 (5th rnd. 130th overall - WPG). Has had an equally impressive year -- 17-2, .946 / 1.46

WPG does have quite a little pipeline going in the NCAA (I think they have a third one-Phillips- to add to the list). But as of a couple weeks ago-I believe they had Kasdorf rated slightly higher on their chart of goaltender prospects.

It sort of passed without notice at the time, what with everybody's attention being focused on the hockey playoffs, but RPI announced the hiring of Ralph Isernia as head football coach on March 8.

Isernia apparently has coached some high-powered offenses during his career. Not sure if he's going to have time to recruit the type of players he needs for his system before next season, but in a couple of years it could be fun to watch when RPI has the ball.

I can find no word on what happened to last year's interim head coach, Bob Bodor, but his winning percentage of .556 would be the envy of quite a few past RPI head football coaches. :)

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully now the program can settle down and get back to the success of the King era. I suspect recruiting will take a little time to get going but I think we got ourselves a quality guy. One of our neighbors had a kid at Bucknell about 5-10 years ago and i believe Isernia was on the staff there then. The kid was a monster offensive lineman and actually got a try out with an NFL team. I know this is the hockey thread-but we are off season now-and this is the kind of news that is just great to hear.
 
Re: RPI Off-Season 2013 Part I: We Will Get Our Title Next Season

Today is 24 March 2013. There are 195 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 5 October 2013 for the start of next season.
 
Re: RPI Off-Season 2013 Part I: We Will Get Our Title Next Season

Thanks to our seniors and to the whole team and coaches for what I see as 'a turnaround year.' Thank you for all your effort... now to build on this good year. Looking forward to next year already!
 
Re: RPI Off-Season 2013 Part I: We Will Get Our Title Next Season

Bryce and Burg off to the ECHL, and Bailen is off to the AHL. They're still technically seniors, not YET to the alumni thread... ;)
