Non taken from an RIT fan.  I agree, their road uni's are ugly and make them
look like tootsie-rolls:-)  By the way, in case anyone cares, they are
officially Burnt Umber in color, not brown:-)

As someone else pointed out, Jonathan Day is #24 for RIT, Matt Garver (RPI
transfer) is #23.
 
Day is one of those players who is a paradox.  If he plays on your team, you
love him because he is always getting under the opponents skin, plays hard,
and seems to be in the thick of it most of the time.  However, if your team
is playing against him, you quickly come to just *hate* him.  In is an
interesting thing to watch from the stands:-)
 
By the way, thanks for your comments about both games.  As an RIT fan who
couldn't make the trip, it was great to have someone from UNO post their
impressions of the games.
