Re: RPI Recruit Thread 2013-14

I think that it is time to give Seth some props. It wasn't that long ago that we were lucky to have a full set of recruits for the following year by May of that year.
Now we have recruits that are two years in advance. And quality recruits at that.
This years team is loaded, and it looks like we have the players to replace them when the time comes.
I like his vision. JMO

Not to reverse what you are saying, but all teams are recruiting earlier and earlier. However we are not trailing the pack as it seemed in the latter years of the Fridgen regime. We do still need to replace the four forwards that are leaving in 2015 (Haggerty, Laliberte, Neal, and McGowan).

Now is certainly the time to get that accomplished. Today we're getting to monitor usually at least a full junior season of recruits ahead of their arrivals on campus, which is fun. Reno the obvious exception this time around.

Very true. Soffer is the other exception, but we even found out about him much earlier than we usually do for a likely third-string goalie.

I suspect that sat least some of those forwards only require a visit by SA or a visit by the potential recruit to Troy to be announced.

Chris Heisenberg is calling Bell a 2014 or 2015 recruit. I'll leave him as a 2014 since Bell stated so himself, but as I wrote earlier, I think that most of the recruits could arrive in at least two different years depending in part on this year's performance. I agree with FlagDUDE that Wilson and Moore are the two defensemen most likely at this point to arrive in 2014.
