    Re: >>> RIT Tigers Offseason: Looking forward to more in 2019-20 <<<

    I'm not too familiar with how coaching contracts work, but I guess I'm surprised to see extensions coming so soon before the end of the contract. Does each extension typically come with better pay or other terms?

    Historical contract extensions:
    May 2010: 5 year contract (through end of 2014-2015 season) https://www.rit.edu/news/mens-hockey...-deal?id=47624
    July 2013: 4 year extension (through end of 2016-2017 season) https://www.ritathletics.com/news/20...730133639.aspx
    June 2015: 7 year extension (through end of 2021-2022 season) https://www.ritathletics.com/news/20...604153047.aspx
    April 2019: 6 year extension (through end of 2024-2025 season) https://www.ritathletics.com/news/20...25-season.aspx

      I’m only referring to the timeline Powers..first we read that he interviewed with BG for the head coach position, then we read that he signed a contract extension with RIT. Not sure if it happened in that order but one thing is evident, RIT does not want to lose the only coach that has won coach of the year in both D3 and D1. I’m happy for Wayne, for RIT, and the student athletes on the team and those who have committed to RIT. Let’s see how the school gets behind this team in the upcoming season.

        No idea either. Did RIT let BG know that WW will not be released from his contract and in fact will be given an extension? No idea. I’m curious how it all went down but I’m 330 miles away as the crow flies so maybe one or two of our more ‘local to the RIT campus and plugged in’ posters may be able to elaborate.

It's not a downgrade to D-III, but it is a step down nonetheless. They don't really have the "cost containment" angle to sell anymore, but maybe if there is a bottom feeder in the WCHA that is having trouble keeping competitive due to finances and exorbitant travel costs, then maybe...

            Yes the MAC is more than just Basketball, that was me just getting the frustration of Canisius and Niagara caring more about Basketball off my chest.

            Thank you for using the Naeger Translator...
            MAAC not MAC. Huge difference.

                It's an interesting thought, but wasn't it generally UAH that poo-pooed the possibility of moving to AHA when the last re-alignment happened?
                I suppose money (lack thereof) could eventually drive a philosophical change as much as anything else.

                  You are correct.

                  But it doesn't mean Huntsville was right...

                    A well-connected and reliable source told me about two D-I colleges with club programs that are looking at going varsity and which are not names I have heard mentioned previously. Both are within the existing geographical footprint of the league (not counting Air Force).

                      I'm the board's vampire, you can't kill me I'm already deaf. All the seriously who ever died from a typo?

                      Calling me out for typo is like calling out a politician for stretching the truth..

                        Hmmm. Duquesne or Temple? SUNY Albany perhaps? I'm gonna bet on Drexel.

                                There have been cases where a typo in a requirement or spec or drug study or medical charts has resulted in fatal consequences (or the wrong body part being amputated). Go read up on what they believe was a key cause of the Columbia disaster. (Hint: a poorly worded PowerPoint presentation...)

                                When you are in the quality field like I am, you learn about them.
