Quote from: Trotsky on October 01, 2026, 07:08:15 AMIt is bracing to see stories on this running at the top of the sites for DW, France24, and Al Jazeera.

This is now the only thing 98% of high school students know about Cornell.

This and the bear.

I'm watching law school reddits be like "we should stop applying to Cornell!" like they don't know the law school is mostly independent of the undergraduate schools, or that there isn't frat life in law school... Interesting times we live in.

The administration that was responsible for handling Cornell's response to these events is not merely in charge of the undergraduate schools, nor only of Greek Life. And sexual assault happens everywhere. While I hate the knee-jerk reaction so many people are having without waiting for all the facts, I absolutely don't think it's unreasonable for those having such a reaction to look at Cornell's Ithaca campus as a whole as "implicated" in the response.

"Why does every woman know another woman that was raped. But no man knows a rapist?" Waiting for all the facts?

Speaking solely as a hypothetical disinterested attorney asked to represent Jane Doe in the civil lawsuit, the initial report she filed that was the basis for the DA not filing charges tells a radically different story from what's being alleged now, and I'm not sure I could recommend a strategy to overcome it. Yes. Waiting for all the facts. That doesn't mean I think she's lying or that it didn't happen, and it doesn't mean I think the university's response was entirely proper, it means that I think it's not an airtight case and people are reacting as if the university ignored incontrovertible proof.

I think the strategy involves the fact that cupd apparently withheld the transcript of the interview and drafted a statement for her to sign that omitted material information that was disclosed in the interview.

I completely understand how what was apparently conveyed to the DA did not seem chargeable. But that seems to be the fault of cupd limiting what was conveyed in a way that would result in that conclusion.

Quote from: ugarte on September 21, 2026, 10:40:50 AMBack to back 3-4 conference finishes probably ranks him in the top 20% of Cornell coaches all-time.

Seriously. I think we'd all sign for 3-4 ivy wins every year and occasional meaningful games in late November. Perennial mediocrity would be a big improvement.

Quote from: stereax on September 01, 2026, 02:35:45 PMRelatedly, if anyone has the athletic director's email, maybe we could do a yellow ribbon handout the night we play Clarkson, in honor of Mayich?

When Joe Exter was hurt (23 years ago) there were blue and yellow ribbons handed out at Lynah. My recollection is that it was organic, unofficial, and involved some folks on here.

Quote from: Ken711 on August 29, 2026, 08:33:00 PMTwo of Cornell's non-league opponents Colgate and 11th ranked Lehigh both started the season with wins.  Lehigh looks like a strong team as expected, and Colgate had a running back rush for over 200 yds in their win.

The back played at my local hs. Went to UConn for a year or two of not seeing the field before transferring.

Quote from: BearLover on August 29, 2026, 11:59:40 AMNortheastern is forced to play all their games on the road this season, as their new stadium is under construction and their old one is condemned. My question is: will they get the full away team NPI bonus for every single game? As we discussed last season, this bonus is actually considerably greater than the true benefit of playing at home, so if indeed Northeastern gets the bonus every game they will get a really big, and unjustified, NPI benefit.

They won't have a true home for three seasons.

Quote from: ugarte on April 11, 2026, 11:01:33 AM3x All-American Meyer Shapiro is in the portal. Finished 3rd, 5th and 8th in his three years at Cornell. Rumors of tension between him and the coaching staff.

Weird to say but a very disappointing Big Red career for the U17 and U20 world gold medalist Multiple concussions and losses in the tournament for a guy who was talked about as someone who could be Cornell's third 4x NCAA champ.

On to Nebraska apparently:

Maine announced a 33 game schedule last week.

Bangor Daily News notes that the 34th game is the as of yet unannounced game at MSG.

Quote from: stereax on June 03, 2026, 10:34:45 PMGuilday, Jenner, O'Neill, Saulnier, Zandee-Hart, Bourbonnais, Daniel were not protected in Phase 1 of the PWHL expansion. (Neither were Delianedis or Katie Chan.)

Probably likely enough one or more is on a new expansion team by the end of the process.

The process is complicated. I seem to recall players on multi year contracts like Guilday didn't need to be protected. But I could be wrong.

Lot of speculation Jenner will sign with Hamilton and play her final season(s) in her hometown.

Jenner officially became the first player in PWHL Hamilton history today.

Article about Jenner and her charity work.

She is beloved in Ottawa and you can see the respect among the teammates, national players, and Cornellians in the comments:

The red scarf union supporters group raises money for the Condors every year too. And rallies members to cheer at games.  It's a great connection.

And Guilday has reportedly signed in San Jose. (I was wrong about how the protection worked). 

Now official according to the PWHL site. 2-year deal.

Kristin O'Neill has now signed with SJ too.
