Re: 2018-19 Schedule - 6 years ago
will that be in lieu of a Cornell home game, or will this be a third game, similar to Colgate in Newark a few years backby underskill - Hockey
Re: Men's Basketball (2017-2018) - 6 years ago
having seen admittedly next to nothing of the team this year, is it clear that the program is on an upswing under Earl, or this just the case of one great Ivy player (Morgan) dragging the team up to 6 wins, and then the program can expect to decline once he leaves (like Columbia, Brown etc. the past few years)by underskill - Other Sports

Re: Alumni in the Pros - April 2017 - 6 years ago
BearLover Intriguing to hear Greening so animated talking about an AHL playoff game, having played almost 300 games in the NHL. I'd be interested in learning when/why things started to go downhill for Colin after he averaged almost a point every-other game for the Sens, playing three full seasons, much of which was spent on their top line. This year he posted only 10 goals and 14 assists and 69by underskill - Hockey
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2017 - 6 years ago
it's not like Cornell is going to pay top dollar for a couch anyways, so best to let Kerwick get a couple full recruiting classes in, then see where things are at w/the program. Worse comes to worse a new coach takes over a team loaded with upperclassmen in a couple years.by underskill - Other Sports
Re: Alumni in the Pros - April 2017 - 7 years ago
per Elliotte Friedman 26. The Oilers signed an interesting prospect last week in Air Force goalie Shane Starrett. He’s a big, talented guy at 6-foot-5, but a bit raw and over-aggressive from what I’m told. He was considering transferring to Cornell to play with his brother, Beau, a forward, but he’s already approaching 23, so it’s time. A few NHL clubs were looking at him, and you can’t teachby underskill - Hockey
Re: NCAA tourney - 7 years ago
Give My Regards BearLover marty BearLover ...there's still nothing to suggest Cornell is any better off now than we've been at any point since '05/'06, the last time we were on top of the ECAC.... There's a Whitelaw from 2010 that you can check out in the trophy case when you next visit Mike and the gang. Oh, I'm aware. But we dodged Yale, who we could never ever beat back then, because they gby underskill - Hockey
Re: NCAA tourney - 7 years ago
Beeeej underskill that argument only works if you think Cornell is underfunding the hockey team, which seems dubious. Harvard has generally had more individual talent over the years, but never seemed to get their s--- together. What on earth does funding have to do with it? The argument works if you think Cornell hasn't reaped the benefits - or been able to reap the benefits - of the theoreticby underskill - Hockey

Re: Ben Syers - 7 years ago

Re: Hockey Broadcasts 2016-17 - 7 years ago
btw, have gamewatches gone totally out the window? I know Ship of Fools has been gone for several years and the games are far more accessible than 5-10 years ago, or is it just a sign of waning fandom.by underskill - Hockey
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2017 - 7 years ago
is there a reason the bottom's totally dropped out this year? or was it just the bad recruiting/coaching change fallout coming to a head with lack of upperclassmen?by underskill - Other Sports
Re: Cornell vs. Merrimack 1/7/17 - 7 years ago
I meant who cares where that one loss puts us in PWR at this point in the season. I agree it's a bad loss but saying we could be 12 in pwr had we won is kinda irrelevant this early.by underskill - Hockey

Re: Columbia wrestling - 7 years ago
nah, it was apparently screencapped by a jilted girlby underskill - Other Sports
Re: Columbia wrestling - 7 years ago
my concern is that these were group text messages, that were stolen by someone and screencapped then leaked --I think it's one thing if there's any evidence of actual harassment or unlawful behavior, another if it's a private group text (no matter how ill-advised some of the convo may be)by underskill - Other Sports

Kyle's right in this case. QU has clearly put their money where their mouth is, devoted $$ resources to their hockey program, and far surpassed Cornell the past 5 years, and now our fanbase is whining about overage transfer students?by underskill - Hockey
