I just loved the positive spin the Athletics Department tried to put on it:

Quote from: Cornell AthleticsThe climb to the top has begun under Coach Austin. With practice opening in a week, the Big Red will be one of the youngest teams in the country. Jump on the bandwagon now!

Cornell is going to be a young team that will gain even more experience this season.  I only hope the OL comes through as Coach Austin said they shored up that area in the media interview.  They can't give up 49 sacks again this season and expect the offense to go anywhere.

The process begins.....well, it actually began with off-season weight work...will be interesting to see what kind of progress we make in the trenches, on both sides of the ball.....have to protect the QB and do a better job stopping the run.....that would be a huge step forward....
