That last part can be removed.

As had been rumored, Emil Ohrvall is on Waterloo’s Protected List.

I guess that this is the time of year to be optimistic, but it is difficult to be that.

Taking a look at the schedule, 3 NC games before the league play begins, all vs. HEA, and both teams a little under 500 last year. If we can pull off around 500 or better to start off the season, we should have some confidence to be able to at least fly under the radar for the first half. Realistically, 1-2 will probably be where we end up. We've historically had trouble vs. UMA in recent matchups regardless of location. UCONN has been the opposite, albeit they were still with AHA when we played them; have to think they've significantly improved if they're competitive in HEA. Kida should be in the books by now; looking forward to the puck dropping.

Did any of you receive the email from the RAA about the special meeting for RAA members planned for October 8th? I received in my email at 6 pm tonight.

FWIW, there should be 6 flags since the women have players from Sweden and Denmark.

Well, that would make it Six Flags! That would be fun.

Today is 1 September 2018. There are 36 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 7 October 2018 for the start of next season.

We used that a while back.

With 10 freshmen and 7 sophs, this team is going to be like a box of chocolates.
I must say that I am surprised that Perry is back.

I did. Obviously the petition was successful to call an emergency meeting, and based on all the finger pointing surrounding the hostile takeover of the Student Union, I'm not surprised one bit.

Where else was he going to go? He's already transferred once, and I would have been shocked if Detroit had signed him.

i am very tired of flying under the radar. we have been off the screen for too long. i think it would be nice to be on the radar perhaps even in the middle of the screen.

RPI 40 Allegheny College 19 as it looks like we get off to our usual good start on the gridiron. Not as one sided as the final score and we gave up a ton of passing yardage but winning by 21 points is still winning big.

Sadly, we have to be realistic in where we are presently, and I would not be shocked if we were picked to finish dead last. And given our reputation when it comes to games, teams aren't going to overlook us, especially after what we pulled last year vs. Cornell. Just need to get to a solid competitive point, make some noise, and I think we'll achieve your goals.

I'm glad to see the meeting is actually scheduled. Just wondering what will come of it.

Hopefully not a disbanding of the alumni association.
