      Why would anybody want to spend time in a metro area in the winter? If I didn't have grandkids here, I'd be on my way back to Vermont lickety split. Too many people, too much pollution, and too much hassle.

        Did you think that way when you were 20 though?

              But why has Salve never been as good? It isn't like Salve is a NEW program

                Not inferring anything, but Salve's recent success is eerily reminiscent of another program's meteoric rise locted near Philly.

                  While I'd love to agree, 1 of 30 foreign players vs 18 of 28...not even close. Now if Salve gave out 1 foreign aid scholarships to that one said foreign player, they would be close to that percentage...I mean case.......

                  Having said that I dont by the "beautiful Newport" argument either. A...these are 20 year old men.... beautiful sunsets, nice houses and artistic buildings are the last thing on their minds. Newport didn't just happen two years ago since Salve has been around (and dormant) for decades.

                  I DO think some $$$ has influenced a couple players, but I also think there is more beyond the scope of grants/aides going on...meaning the coach and more so the Universitys push to put a great program on the ice.

                  If they were stacked with Canadian players I'd agree, but they're not. I'd say they are more on par with a team out of Michigan. Now did they promise their incoming players they'd be going DI in a couple years like Adr....I mean yea, Salve has come a long ways....

                    Whens the last time Platty was relevant?
                    As for Norwich, why did they lose out on eight kids to Salve last year...per Prez
                    The last time Plattsburgh was relevant was LITERALLY a year ago when they won the SUNYAC? Prior to this year they made it to three consecutive conference championship games.

                      Fredonia played in this year's said championship game. Are they now relevant?
                      It's been years since I've put Platty in national contender.
                      Coach Emery is no doubt one of the best D3 has seen, but they aren't where they were a decade ago.

                          Cool, new rule. Your team is not relevant unless they've won a NC. See you later.

                            That's not what I said.

                              So making the NCAA tournament 5x in the last 10 years doesnt make you relevant. What are the qualifications then? I would say making the conference finals for 20+ years straight in one of the best D3 conferences in the nation, including winning it 5x in the past 10 means they are still relevant. If they have a season like this year for the next 10 years then I may agree with you but until then, I am willing to bet that most if not everyone will agree they are still relevant.
