This is for RB. Koudys number is wrong ... he will be #4. Please take note.

Thanks. His father told me that he asked for 4. I was surprised that he didn't get it.

in honor of Kelly O'Brien, today is 31 August 2011. There are 31 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 1 October for the start of next season.

So the BRO comes in at 200lbs.....really? Maybe babo could share with us her grocery bills and we can decide if he is really 200 Someone hit the gym this off season or its a plan to make other teams thing he is a beanpole....

Ummm...unless they removed one of his arms there is NO physical way he could be 200lbs. He left home at a very lean and nasty 247 and the workout skate schedule has him hovering right around there...he DOES love the new dining facility within 50 yards of his room but he knows how to eat healthy...his only indulgence is an occasional batch of homemade chocolate chip cookie dough, in which he won't partake until Thanksgiving (even though I offer ) ...I think it was either an editing error or a 'Trojan horse' entry onto the roster...

Babo,
Are you and Mr. Babo going in cognito? Without actually looking at all fo the players' pages, BRO's http://www.rpiathletics.com/roster.a...27&path=hockey may be the first one not to mention his parents.

...maybe he doesn't like us...

Apparently Coach Appert was in Ann Arbor recently with some other college coaches to help promote NCAA hockey to some of the best 14 and 15 year old players.

I actually don't know where his room is (other than across from the bookstore). There is a new eatery right there...we'll hopefully see his digs in the next few weeks...

He must be in the Quad... they just recently renovated RSDH at about the time I left.

Hope he enjoys Tofu Tim.

I mentioned before that I met his father at the Capitals' rookie camp. i also posted the fact that he mentioned that his son had requested 4.

You know FD, if BRO sees you peering into his room w/ binoculars from the 7th floor of the CII, he's going to beat the hell out of you...

SA was very candid in this article with regards to payments made to players. I wonder if Coaches are making the adjustment to the new paradigm of recruiting. Think of how diffucult it must be to spend so much on signing a kid and he pulls the plug and goes to the O. Do you go for that top flight player or do you concentrate on other maybe lesser players. I think it has been mentioned on here before but the educational package offered in the O is a joke from what I heard. Some have said this is a crisis (players leaving) but I don't think so. Nice catch, RH. Enjoyed this very much.

RPI was first runner-up in the Masters sweepstakes:

Great catch RH... I wish the kid luck, but if education ever entered his thinking, the choice betw. UNH and RPI wouldn't have been very hard.
