I'm always amazed at how "old" these "kids" are.  Is this common with other NCAA hockey teams?  What about other sports?  I believe football and squeakball teams generally have true freshmen.

I think I remember my U of Florida fan friends bemoaning the fact that Florida State had a 30 year old quarterback.

Ken,

It is really common. Brown has two kids who'll be over 21 before they step on campus. I guess it has to do with schools wanting kids to play at least a year of junior hockey after high school.

As for Justin Milo..the kid is tiny, but he is a catch. 3rd in the entire USHL in goals scored as a rookie, ahead of highly touted recruits for BC, Minnesota, etc like Brock Bradford, Blake Wheeler, etc..

Did he commit to Cornell or Colgate?  The list of "futures" refers to Colgate's recruits.

He committed to Cornell. I figure the guy just screwed up with his cut/paste from Heisenberg's site. It'd be pretty weird if Mike Schafer told Topher Scott to show this kid around the Colgate campus :)

Milo played last year for the unbelievable Shattuck St. Mary's program and also used to be play with Honey Baked - another program with an outstanding reputation.  He's played with some very good players.

Guess you missed my point.  I don't care what people post here, and I doubt Age does (at least up until the point where someone tries to hold him responsible for it as the owner).  I just care when people think something about the law that isn't true.  "It's free, so I can reproduce it anywhere and as much as I want" is close to my favorite, but generally runs a close second to "If someone tells me to shut up or deletes my posts they're infringing on my constitutional right to free speech."

Beeeej,

I've summarized the message. I've heard too much about Cary Sherman, a HS classmate, to want to get involved in anything like that. (Did anyone know Sherman in Cornell?)

i cant find anything on this kid. can you post a link to stats etc?

Considering that Dick Bertrand, captain of the 1970 team, was 29 years old in his final season these kids don't seem that old at all!

He really has outstanding goal totals for the USHL.  And he still has one year left there.
