Re: President Pollack resigning - 8 days ago
Stupid people can convince rich people to give them money, for stupid things. Smart people can't convince rich people to give them money. Extremely smart people can't be bothered by any of these assholes and spend their lives trying to stay away from them entirely.by Trotsky - Other Sports
Re: Pollack Out - 9 days ago
RichH After her retirement becomes official, 3/8 Ivy presidents will have the “interim” label, and who knows what will happen at Columbia. It’s a fun time to be in the pool of candidates at that level. Maybe this is our chance to increase the Ivy game limit & hockey season start time! Drop all the Designer Bag idiocy at once, please.

Re: Pollack Out - 10 days ago
billhoward upprdeck not great timing for the school If she leaves by June 30, she gets a fifth year at like, Hopkins or Michigan. There's not much NIL money for an Ivy president.About one post a year makes me wish we had upvotes here. Take it, you bastard.by Trotsky - John Spencer Is Dead

Re: Bye-bye Ben - 10 days ago
RichH Swampy Also, since Ben oversaw recruiting, have any recruits coming in 2024 changed their minds? What about those lined up for 2025 or 2026? My guess is that recruits are typically sold on the program and the head coach, not the recruiter/associate coach. I seem to remember that Casey was also the lead on the recruiting effort, so we already have a sample of this exact scenario.It mby Trotsky - Hockey
Re: Schoellkopf Field needs to be upgraded to Ivy standards. - 12 days ago
No. We don't "need" anything in athletics. Ever. That's a cutesy luxury after you take care of academics. We need better salaries for professors and better packages to get better grad students, and we need to give Poors a free ride and charge the rich up the ass to reproduce their generational wealth in their idiot progeny. We need to burn every other building on campus to the grby Trotsky - Other Sports

mike1960 Swampy CU2007 Ken711 Cornell had their spring game yesterday. Now it's waiting until training camp begins in August. And somehow Cornell still couldn’t come away with a win Of course. They're getting ready for the fall. Would be nice to have a decent football team this year.It's the Ivies. None of us have had a decent football team since the 60s.by Trotsky - Other Sports

Jeff Hopkins '82 Trotsky Scersk '97 Gutting. What a loss to the community. To pay off the surely mounting debts, I say Cornell buys some buildings and moves them, brick by brick, to replace some of our more horrific structures.Just raze everything built since 1930.

Re: Men's Lax Tournament 2024 - 16 days ago
mike1960 I like that our offense is spacing things out. Their goalie made a good stop, but if we keep shooting, we'll score some goals tonight.Their goalie has made two ungodly Drydenesque moves so far. I hope he's not going to have his career night.by Trotsky - Other Sports

Re: NCAA NIL/Subdivision Proposal - 16 days ago
The 60 universities that already have professional athletes instead of students in football and basketball go fully transparent in those sports. Maybe they won't even fake matriculation anymore. The rest of college sports will totter along, somewhat corrupt, but for embarrassingly low stakes.by Trotsky - Other Sports
