Which, in light of the IJ article, is a little embarrassing.

As for the IJ article... "Bren-don"?[/quote]In converting the print article to the Web the IJ system seems to systematically retain the line-break hyphens.

I know. It just makes him sound like an immigrant from Krypton.

Does anyone have any solid information on why Milo won't be playing hockey for the Big Red anymore?  Very surprised he won't be playing anymore given the hype he came in with and the amount he played as a freshman.  

Have there been Red hockey players who played another varsity sport at Cornell?

Sounds like Schafer didn't want him playing a second sport.

Bill Murray played soccer back in the early 70s, IIRC.  Dryden played shortstop for awhile.  Players didn't train year-round like they do today.

I didn't get to see Milo play too much. My lasting impression of him is the CU-Harvard game on CSTV. He skated around a Harvard defender like the defender was standing still - twice. ::wow:: Based on that, he will be missed. Are we that full of talent or did he do something bad?

Do I remember correctly that Brock Tredway (mid-late 70s) played soccer too?

Joe somebody was expected to play lacrosse, but wisely chose ice hockey.

and was All-Ivy.

When Ned coached both hockey and lacrosse, a lot of hockey players played both sports.

The only bad thing he did was play baseball!  ::rolleyes::

To dismiss a solid 2 way player like this for playing a sport in his off season is moronic by schafer.   But maybe in Schafer's eyes playing baseball is a lot worse than rape.

Bill Murray, a defenseman almost as big and almost as talented as Doug Murray, opted not to play soccer his senior year to concentrate on hockey. Unfortunately, this was the least successful team since 1966 (give or take 1971) and I believe never got beyond the first round of the playoffs. This was the turning point for the the team - it never regained its glory for years and years.

Matt Herr played both hockey and baseball at Michigan.  He was drafted in both sports I believe, though he was a much higher hockey draft choice.

I have no idea if the allegations on this board are true, but I would be a little disappointed if Mike didn't let someone talented play two sports.  I'm not convinced that it is true.
