Re: Cornell football coach tenure - 1 year ago
Trotsky billhowardFootball is Cornell's biggest coaching hire I cannot agree. The best Ivy League football squads of the last 30 years would be uncompetitive in Division II. The sport itself has cratered in popularity and the prestige associated with football in the northeast has long been the lowest of any region in the country. I realize there are still a handful of rich NYC douchebags wby Ken711 - Other Sports

Penn now 4-0 after a 58-28 win over Georgetown. Penn's offense has been vastly improved since former Ithaca College head coach Dan Swanstrom returned to Penn as their offensive coordinator. I still think he would be an ideal candidate to head the Cornell football program post Archer.by Ken711 - Other Sports

Penn has looked good so far this season with their new Offensive Coordinator Dan Swanstrom. Swanstrom was the former successful head coach at Ithaca College with a .744 winning percentage. He would be an ideal candidate to replace Archer.by Ken711 - Other Sports

scoop85 New recruit for Fall of ‘23, Ian Omegwu, a 6’9” forward from Blair Academy in NJ. Brings some needed size to the program. Not a big scorer last season at Blair, but apparently has been productive on the summer circuit. He held one other D1 offer from Rider, and apparently had serious interest from other Ivy and Patriot programs. Ian Imegwuby Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell football 2022 - 1 year ago
Swampy I propose that until we get a coach who establishes a winning tradition, we don't hire any more alumni as HC. Recent history (at least the past 40 years) has been a progression to doormat status. We need a coach who knows how to pick a program up from the floor. Couldn't agree more.by Ken711 - Other Sports

There is absolutely no way to justify bringing back Archer for another year.,,,none. The first order of business for the new AD has to be finding a new coaching staff.

Re: Cornell football 2022 @ VMI 9/17 - 1 year ago
From the Cornell Daily Sun preview talking about the loss of 51 seniors and 5th year players: The result of the unprecedented roster turnover this season is a lot of unproven, inexperienced players. Reflecting on 2021, Archer indicated that he regretted “coaching with gratitude.” So many fifth-year seniors disrupted their lives to play for the Red in 2021 after losing the 2020 season to the paby Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell football 2022 - 1 year ago
billhoward wolcoma I have no problem with Cornell hiring a female AD as long as she is experienced and good at the job. Where the Board of Trustees screwed up is after Elizabeth Garrett passed away they were in too much of a hurry to hire another female president rather than the best person for the job. Again I think Martha Pollack is probably a brilliant academic, but does not have the persoby Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell football 2022 - 1 year ago
billhoward wolcoma That's my frustration with Martha Pollack is she is the most AWOL president Cornell has ever had. For example, she has been president for five years and has not once come out to meet alums at our Cornell Club event. Secondly ask many of the staff in the athletic department and they can't stand her. My daughter overlapped one year with Martha Pollack at Cornell and neverby Ken711 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell football 2022 - 1 year ago
The three most important aspects that will improve the football program: 1. Make the right hire for the next athletic director who will see and act on the current and prior (dating back to the early 1990's) awful state of the Cornell football program. 2. Hire a PROVEN head coach with a track record of winning success. 3. Follow through with the building of the indoor practice facility cuby Ken711 - Other Sports

Re: New baseball field site approval received - 1 year ago
upprdeck so if they plan on 500 people attending a game and the lot holes 80 cars where/how do they expect people to get there? if you assumed 4 people in a car that still leaves about 200 people getting there in some other way or do they expect to have a non paved lot as well? even if you assumed no spectators i would think many of the team would be driving there. its not a simple walk withby Ken711 - Other Sports

Re: Cornell football 2022 - 1 year ago
Trotsky Ken711That's exactly how they were worded it. Cornell's past record doesn't give the Cornell SID much to work with. The Big Red has surpassed its preseason predicted finish in six of the last seven seasons, including in 2021 when it was picked to place eighth only to tie for sixth.by Ken711 - Other Sports

CAS Media poll has Cornell last again. Cornell release proudly states the Red outperformed expectations last year (when finished tied for last & went 1-6 in Ivies). Stop the insanity! Please put an end to this Archer tenure. Here's hoping the new AD will finally act on this.by Ken711 - Other Sports
