Im surprised Saint Lawrence managed to trick a guy that's ranked into attending. I'll set the over under at 50.5 days for the decommitment.

Do you really think that we're not doing as much as the coaches and athletics think we can do already given who we are as a school, our location, our resources financially, etc?  And even if Casey has some new and improved recruiting plan, you couldn't expect it to slam into gear right at the change-over.

Even if getting the CHL/OHL/ etc kids as recruits was the holy grail, it's a LOT easier for teams like Q to put that plan in place right away, because they've got 4 or 5 spots a year they expect to fill through the portal.  It's an easy shift for them.   OTOH, we have a full pipeline.  Do you want us to go grab three guys from the OHL and have to yank commitments made years ago to three other kids so we have roster space?
 
You're a keyboard karen yelling at how unfair the world is.  Unless you actually have some reasonable, concrete, novel, and implementable recommendation that you are willing to directly phone in to Nicki and/or Casey to save the day, please STFU with this recruiting whining already. (Try therapy instead. Less fun, more productive than being here).

TY Sir. I don't think I'd heard it anywhere before, but i'm not surprised that someone beat me to the punch.

Urban dictionary:

Keyboard Karen

A person who stalks the comment section on social media platforms and harassess anyone with an opinion that could be perceived as different from their own. They are often entitled and speak down to others with a prominent self righteous attitude. When cornered in an argument, they may resort to accusations of bigotry or assume the role of victim.

ex: I commented on a joke last night and a Keyboard Karen spent 2 hours trying to make me feel like a terrible person!

You are completely insane, dude. Let's go look at what I said: "Cornell needs to pick up recruiting." I wrote this on an Internet forum of hockey fans. And you got so triggered by this total harmless message that you wrote three paragraphs screaming at me.

Also, lmao, our recruiting class in 2023 had 5 draft players. You think one kid ranked by central scouting is the best we can do? We have a new coach and the population of recruitable kids just doubled, there is massive room for growth. And where did I say I expected our recruiting to pick up overnight? I'm looking towards the future, obviously. You also say a bunch of other nonsense that I've already spoken about countless times in other posts. You spent your entire post knocking down an imaginary strawman (stupid BearLove doesn't realize our pipeline is full, yet he expect our recruiting to magically improve overnight despite the fact we are already doing as well as we possibly can). That's completely untrue, all of it.

Let's just be clear what happened here: I, a fan of a college hockey team, wrote on an Internet forum: "Cornell needs to pick up recruiting." This is not a rude nor uninformed opinion. And you went berserk. You couldn't handle it! You are nuts!

A classic example of a keyboard Karen response.

Maybe he wants to play for Casey again. Or maybe he wants a big payday from the big 10, if that's a real thing that exists (unknown).

Edit: oh wait, he's a rising senior, he can't transfer to Cornell.

The ECAC is really getting ravaged by the portal. It's going to be Quinnipiac, huge gap, and then everyone else next season. If we still had Robertson and Bancroft we'd easily be the second best team, but without them we'll be rebuilding like the rest of the league.

Clarkson has multiple point a game guys and a goalie with a .920 save percentage coming in from the CHL. They could be really good if CHL guys don't completely flop in college. I know they would all be freshmen but that's not as concerning when it's a bunch of 21 year olds.

Never change, Colgate.

(I had no idea about CC.  Fuck them.)

A more detailed (and prettier) treatment.

A far, far more detailed (less pretty) analysis of Cornell.  (tldr: we suck, but not compared to the other Ivies.)

The scatter plot and trending charts are most interesting.  I would have expected us (and the Ivies in general) to have become less scumbag-ridden in the last 40 years but nope -- flatlining all the way.  Tutoring and privilege in high school still replicates class. Whodathunk?

Fun fact: the top 4 universities for "Median student income at age 34" are pharmacy schools. MIT is 5th.

You really hate rich people huh? Just because someone is wealthy doesn't mean they're the scum of the earth

Rich people are the same as everybody else.  Which is why the top 1% should make up 1% of the class, and the top 10% should make up 10%.

Otherwise it really is a scam to keep the failsons in the dough, like all the proles think.  Cuz I know these folks and wealth and intelligence sure as shit aint correlated.

I want Cornell to be the exception it claims to be.  That would be truly worthy of pride.
