    AD, I read all of you articles and stand by my statement. Shirley/Donald rule the same way.
    I wonder what might be said of her if she were an old white conservative male?

      Also, has two National Championships on his resume. You are right he is a great man.
      Appert's an all-stars coach. Remember that he has the cream of the crop under his wing. They have enough talent to win on talent alone at that level. You wonder why Polacek, Zalewski, Haggerty, and Pirri were so touted.

      The issue has always been that he's not a good bench coach. He doesn't have a Plan B. Aside from goalies, he's not that good with developing the rest of the talent. Sure, he has two national championships, but as an assistant. Gwozdecky was the lead.

        Trump is not a despot. He might be eccentric, but he doesn't disband an entire senate when they announce, through a vote, that they don't like him.

            I see it's that time of year to re-start the excuse machine. And we're back on two of my favorites; admissions and facilities.

            Has it ever crossed anyone's mind that the previous and current coaching staffs were told "Coach, we will invest in the facility, but you need demonstrate you can perform first. Get us to the ECAC Frozen Four once or twice, and then we will commit."

            That seems like a rational, achievable ask (assume they are rational enough to pose these, whether they did or not is a separate debate )

            What say you? In all of these excuse recycling sessions, the data of RPI being one of the worst performing programs in the ECAC over the last 10-15 years goes unmentioned. And I think we'd all agree the HFH is not the worst facility in the ECAC.

            Thoughts?

            We can touch on admissions later.

                I would consider her a failure. In all metrics the school is failing. https://renewrensselaer.org/ Should I not be able to make a statement about her performance because of race; that is absurd and it stifles debate. If you want to call me a racist go ahead but I am talking about her performance. She pledged more support for the program and there has been nothing to date. Thanks for taking the high road.

                    Agreed, Salt Shed in Schenectady is worst.

                      Easy AD, I wasn't calling you or anyone else anything. I just think that the people doing most of the complaining would be more comfortable with a conservative president. No matter what his/her policies might be.
                      This school does have a Board, doesn't it? If she was so bad, don't you think that they would do something about it?

                        Doesn't he control the senate? You have to wonder why they would vote that they don't like him.
