I think DiLeo knows his place.  He was not a highly ranked goaltender and was a very late commitment.  I think he knows he is Chabot's replacement and think he knows this.[/quote]But does he think he knows it?[/quote]And does he know that Ari thinks he knows?

But I guess my point is, if DiLeo *did* know that his role at Cornell was going to be limited to a four-year backup, would it be unreasonable to think he might want to go play somewhere else where he'd have a chance of starting?

Is there anywhere to get a full list of recruits without going through 200 posts?

[quote billhoward]If it looks as if Cornell has a sizable batch of recruits incoming - of course, not all the maybes are really signing on - is that because Cornell is making provisions for the worst case happening this spring?

- Moulson graduates
- Five other seniors graduate
- Pokoluk stays or leaves?
- O'Byrne stays or leaves?
- McKee stays or leaves?
- Would any of the freshmen want to take their chances in the pros, or a Ray Sawada? (June 2004: "I'm still going to Cornell," said Sawada, who was selected 52nd overall by Dallas. "You never know how long you're going to stay there, but I'll work my hardest once I get there." [USCHO])
- Mike Schafer hears a tempting offer

That's a lot of people for coach Shafer to replace. Um, Mike, you're still with us, right?[/quote]

Nothing we can do about the seniors graduating.  Well, I suppose we could join the SEC, but that wouldn't give them any more eligibility. ;-)

On the others:

Sasha's definitely possible.  The saving grace is that he isn't exactly maxing out his NCAA potential, and the Caps aren't in desperate need of anything except everything -- meaning, there's no point in rushing him up to help them finish last again next year.

O'Byrne I just can't see.  Still too many holes in the guy's game.  He's improving, but he doesn't compare to the guys who have left early in the past.

Sawada I'd say is a lock to stay, having not shown a true breakout year, but I was very surprised when Hynes bolted.

McKee, well, there's the Thiessen quote, but then there's every indication that the McKee family is 100% behind the Cornell educational experience and the Cornell community.  And it isn't as if David has to worry about leaving early to get Momma outta the projects or Dad outta the zinc mine.  I think the continuing search implies that DiLeo is Louis Chabot and Scrivens is Ian Burt, and Coach is interested in finding, at minimum, another Matt Underhill.

And Coach Himself, well, I doubt he'd screw Cornell right in the middle of the funding drive for the improvements he's pushed for all these years.  The Lynah improvements are Schafer's payday for the incredible change he has made in the program.  It makes no sense that he wouldn't stick around and reap the benefit.

Blake Gallagher lost out to teammate Wahsontio Stacey for SJHL rookie of the year (each team can only nominate one player), but Blake and the rest of the Hounds took almost all the slots in the SJHL All-Rookie team:

Waahooo, another set of twins!  The Devin brothers are coming in for 2007 according to Heisenburg's website.  Anybody know anything about them?

Could they possibly be from Boston?

[quote ursaminor on Jan 30]According to Heisenberg's list, Cornell has received commitments from another set of twins, Mike and Joe Devin from Catholic Memorial.  Since one plays defense, I guess that they won't replace the Abbotts.[/quote]

No but the McRae's were splite, one defense, one forward and they were very exciting to watch, much like the abbotts.

Sorry, didn't go back that far to look and I didn't see there stats in the comparison of everybody else.

Just noticed Heisenberg lists Davenport, goalie, as a Cornell recruit for 2006.  Isn't this a replay?
Cheers!
