Columbia seems to have made a good decision hiring this dude as their new football coach, but his alma matter leaves something to be desired.

Seems like a very good coach and a very good choice for Columbia. I just hope the Lions don't wreck his coaching career though...

Wilson joins two other prominent Thornwood alums in New York - Eddy Curry and Cliff Floyd.

Easy there, KeithK. Building a sports tradition anywhere takes time, and here we're pretty much starting with nothing. The Athletic Department here is desperately trying to save face after promising a quick turnaround in campus involvement, and Coach Shoop's short tenure I think is a result of that. If anything, I think Coach Wilson's hiring is huge for the Football team and he has an incredible opportunity to better his career by turning around a program that is long overdue. If he fails, he's really not losing anything, as can be seen by the apeshit response to our boys beating FORDHAM.
Everyone here is pulling for him.
I'm just glad we only have a club hockey team so my loyalties aren't tested.

Does "forever" mean since Archie Roberts graduated--as did I--in 1965?

Wilson's hiring got a mention on SportsCenter this morning, since he's the first black head football coach in Ivy League history. John Anderson also described Columbia's football program as "perpetually morbid."

I'd've used Sid Luckman...but I wasn't born then.
