No, the article mentioned Marinaro and Dryden as examples of great Cornell athletes. Here's the whole section about Cornell.
Coach Tom Coughlin described Boothe as “a student of the game.” People often cite Boothe’s intelligence; he is a Cornell graduate with a degree in hotel administration.
Cornell, like other Ivy League universities, is not known for turning out many professional sports stars. But it has produced a few. Boothe said he had met Ed Marinaro, Cornell’s 1971 Heisman Trophy finalist, and knew of Ken Dryden, the goalie who led Cornell to the 1967 N.C.A.A. title and won six Stanley Cup titles with the Montreal Canadiens. Dryden is also a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto and of the Canadian Parliament in Ottawa.
“I have not met him, but I know he’s big-time in Canada,” Boothe said.

Not worth a new thread, but due to Rich Seubert's knee injury, Kevin Booth is now playing G on MNF v. the Redskins.

He played well. Made a great block on Bradshaw's 2nd touchdown run.

Kind of hard to judge how well any of the Giants played last night considering the (lack of) competition.scoop85

Agreed. Hadn't seen the Giants play like that in awhile. I wish we had that running game earlier this season. I think the loss last week to Philly (and Dallas's win over the Saints) ended the Giants post-season plans. I hope I am wrong though...

The Giants started William Beatty. a rookie from UConn at Right Tackle for McKenzie and Boothe commonly the first O-Line off the bench wasn't in until Seubert's injury. The UConn guy did very well, and I was worried about Kevin's future with NY, but when Seubert went down Kevin came in and did a great job. O'Hara and McKenzie are getting old, and Seubert, also older has had quite a few injuries, so maybe Kevin can stick.

I think Boothe will stick around for at least a few years. He's dependable and versatile.

Boothe has really become the backup guard, as opposed to utility lineman he was the past couple of years. I think they really like Beatty as a tackle of the future, but it seems they're happy with Boothe on the interior line.

I feel like every time I see him on the field I can read his name because he is chasing someone that turned him inside out. He is a fringe NFL player. In the grand scheme of things, that's very impressive, but if he gets a starting job somewhere, expect to see that team at the bottom of the standings.BCrespi
