Title: Cornell football - coaching change?
Post by: billhoward on November 23, 2019, 04:50:23 PM
David Archer now has 7 years in as Cornell coach.

2013  3 - 7
2014  1 - 9
2015  1 - 9
2016  4 - 6
2017  3 - 7
2018  3 - 7
2019  4 - 6
Total 19-51  .271


Cornell finished the year with two wins including the stunning upset over #12 Dartmouth. We tied for fourth in the Ivy League (with a 3-4 record). If Cornell wants to keep Archer, that's enough to point to: upset win of the year of any Ivy game ... two losses by 21-20 and the narrow loss to Georgetown ... could have almost been 7-3. But it wasn't. So what happens next?

What's attainable for a good Ivy team over the long haul? If Cornell averages 6-4 each year in the future, David Archer would reach .500 in 2035.

A coaching search would mean more work. And who wants that?

With Andy as AD, Cornell football has had 1 winning season in the last 20 years.  In 2005, Cornell went 6-4.  In the 13 years before Andy became AD, Cornell went a collective 73-57.
