Recruiting threads are great to read. It sounds as if we're a year, two at most, from another final four. It probably sounds that way on forum threads for fans of Dartmout, RPI, Harvard (fans?), etcetera. Hope springs eternal.

Do they play in the same league as Brow and Cornel? ::burnout::

Yes! They're also in the same conference as Havard and Princton.

Wait, I thought it was Brom.  (And don't forget Ylae.)

Casey Jones is out on the trail, watching the Canada Games in Halifax, NS. Hopefully he'll find us another Colin Greening or Blake Gallagher out in eastern Canada.

I'd take a Mike Iggulden, too.

....but you have a gem in Joakim Ryan already headed to Ithaca.  Any word on whether he'll be 2011 or 2012?  Second among USHL rookie defensemen in scoring (Alexx Privitera is headed to BU). USHL Defensemen Scoring

Most USHL players have a tough first year, seems like Joakim has hit the ground running.

And new recruit Jacob MacDonald is right behind him in scoring.

Bill,

This is true, but I think comparison with past years will show we're definitely improving our recruiting. Say someone took Heisenberg's rankings from classes entering 2006 to 2012. I bet within conference we've lowered the average ranking (lower is better, with 1 = best) by 30% at least. Also, we're getting more players who stand out as blue chips.

If I remember correctly, the year Riley Nash came here, he saved an otherwise lackluster recruiting year. This year, we've had 3 players commit and then decide to play major juniors, but we're still looking at 6-10 top-notch recruits.

Casey Jones has been doing a great job! I love that good 'n plenty.

In case you haven't seen it yet, BRP reported that three of our recruits -- Ferlin, McCarron, and Ryan -- were named to the USHL all-star teams. Only two schools, UND and Miami, had four recruits named, and only two other schools, UNO and OSU, had three. Not too shabby. ::cheer::

And 2 of them are forwards.
