      Not all of them. I don't think that Jerry Knightley ever played professionally or coached. He did play at Western Ontario the year after graduating from RPI and played and defeated RPI that year. Bob Brinkworth played professionally, but never in the NHL and he coaches at the club level. I don't think that Frank Chiarelli ever coached and his play was limited to senior leagues. John Carter played in the NHL but had a limited career. After Oates and Juneau; Puppa, McPhee, and Pothier have the most extensive professional resumes and none have been honored. Indeed, Puppa may not be eligible since he did not graduate from RPI.

      It is hard to use the same criteria over seven decades. I think that CP would be a worthy addition who would draw fans to a game.

      Every time that this topic comes up, I wonder who should be the next addition and I thus wonder what criteria are used. Lots of players cross my mind.

        FIRE has been on their case for years. I still remember someone being expelled surrounding the whole "Draw Muhammad" incident.

          Did Oates graduate?
          In two years, Puppa put up a 55 and 7 won/loss record and a national chanpioship. If he doesn't belong on that wall, they should take the wall down.

            Oates completed his degree over several summer sessions.

              Hi Ralph - do you know where to find the all-time program records, like "Top 10 in points scored"? I can not find that online.

                I know that you didn't ask me, but those numbers are in this years program. At least they are in the one I got at the UMass Lowell game this year.

                          hi EHF, it wasn't meant just for Ralph, especially since he seems to be ignoring me

                          I would love to see it online, but can't find it.

                                Dr. Mcilroy has shown more responsible leadership when it comes to the AD than predecessors. Sure, he fired your coach, who was given insane contract extensions. Sure, he chose an outlet who was conducting a search for the first time. Sure, he didn't let some crabby alums interfere with the selection process like a disagreeable bridesmaid when picking the dress. But he's not the problem. For the hand he was dealt, he's been playing it extraordinarily well.

                                You will have no argument from me about Jackson, though. Heck, even Prof. Washington didn't want to sit next to her when they showed the throne a couple weeks ago. That tyrant has pulled down morale of the ENTIRE institute.
