  • Re: RPI 2018 Off-Season: The Hunt for Red October

    Interesting statistic from WaP: Against the #1 seeds in the national tournament, we went 1-3-2, and one of those 3 losses was in overtime. I guess the biggest question mark under our coach that just completed his first year with us: When are we going to play consistently, rather than to the level of the competition?

      Roughly $2K per week for grad school. Wonder what program he's in?

        Today is 20 March 2018. There are 200 days until RPI's next game.


        This is based upon 6 October 2018 for the start of next season.

            Nice read. And yes, I'm sort of working around the bots with this.

              Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.

                You could ask that question of each of the coaches that we have had since 1993 when I started following the Engineers.

                Personally, I think that for the most part, we were consistent. We were competitive in most games and just fell a little short.
                I think that Smith has us on the right trajectory, we just have to see if that continues. A little more scoring talent wouldn't hurt either.

                  Relevance as in all college sports, is a year to year thing. As all teams change every year. The last time RPI was relevant, was when we had Pirri and D'Amigo.
                  The next time we become relevant, is when we have a winning season. I wonder what Cornell would say, if you asked them if we were relevant this year.
                  Like you, I will always think that RPI is a relevant team. JMHO

                    Try telling that to Nick Saban or Gino Auriemma 😜

                      It matters just what one means by relevant. By WaP's definition, I think that he is correct.

                        Using that for a basis, in 2011 we would believe that UAH was relevant, because if it weren't for them splitting UNO, we wouldn't have made it in. Would we have considered Colgate relevant, though?
