I received a package in the mail at work today.  Some wiseguy sent me a t-shirt - RMC National Champions!

well played!

Hey, you'll always need a rag with which to dry the car when you wash it in the driveway, or to wipe the grease off of your tools in the garage, right?

I don't want to step on Titan Q's toes because I know this is his forte, but when do we start our way way way too early top 25 discussion?

It's my understanding that Titan Q is no longer posting on the boards. At least he has left the CCIW board. Time for someone else to take over. Might as well be you.

Yep. Yard work. Painting. There will always be a good use for it!

HAHA! He knows where I work. But he "smoothed" the business relationship by also sending a CNU Tervis tumbler and a nice CNU flag for the front yard! Quality guy. He reps RMC very well!

He also played 4 years football for RMC

Of if there is another run on toilet paper, resulting in another shortage.

You can replace Amherst and Tufts with Middlebury and Wesleyan for NESCAC candidates. I don't know what their arguments would be, especially Amherst. Middlebury should definitely be on there, they return everybody.

Other omissions of note:

Roanoke, Stockton, Vassar,  St Joe's, Whitewater, Rochester, Rowan

I'd exclude:

Calvin, Case, Elmhurst, TCNJ, Gettysburg, Guilford, Linfield, Millikin, Pacific Lutheran, Ursinus, Buena Vista, prob a few others ...

Gregory Sager

I'd take UW-Platteville and Wheaton off of that list as well.

I'd also take out Trine - lose 60% of their minutes, points, and rebounds to graduation

Vassar was never close to top 25 last year and I doubt they will next season but it should be noted they return everyone.  Whether that translates to a leap forward remains to be seen.  It's not unusual for a team like that to actually regress the following season.

Whitworth loses a bunch of players, but Whitman retina nearly everyone.
