I'll change this to "Non-hockey alumni in the Pros" later so that we have a catch-all for the topic, but for now, see if you can find Jeff Foote in this highlight of his D League team's win.

Though not a Cornell alumni, certainly related to Cornell: The Washington Wizards fired coach Flip Saunders today and promoted Randy Whitman as their interim head coach.

WBNG's report on it, with this quote:
Jeff becomes the 4th Cornell grad to reach the NBA, and the first to do so in over 50 years

OK, that's never going to reach "Linsanity" levels, but it's still fun.

Interlace the Cornell fans in red and it'll look like a Christmas game with all the drunks wearing green March 17. This would be at the Prudential Center in Newark.Cornell Club of Northern New Jersey
Jeff Foote, who was a senior on the Cornell basketball team that went to the Sweet Sixteen round of the NCAA tournament, has been called up with a 10-day contract with the NBA's New Orleans Hornets. During that time, the Hornets will be visiting the New Jersey Nets on Saturday, March 17, at 8 PM.
Alumni interested in obtaining discounted tickets for this game should contact Ken Dorsett, Group Sales Account Manager for the Nets, at 201-635-3414. Ken has indicated that tickets start at $20 for this game; you must call him directly.
We hope may local alumni will give Jeff a warm welcome by attending the game AND wearing red!

Hopefully, I'll be unable to attend due to another commitment in Atlantic City. But it's good to know it's an option.
