Great article. Thanks!

It sort of makes up for the Arizona Daily Star article on Stone Gettings, which seems to diss Cornell every chance it can, and for TD Ierlan choosing that shithole school in New Haven over Cornell.

Or is it "that school in the shithole called New Haven?"

Former Cornell rb Chris Walker transferred to Eastern Illinois. He battled injuries here and could have come back a 5th medical year, but decided on a change of schools.

His transfer might be related to financial aid.  At Cornell I do not they extend financial aid beyond 4 years.

Quote from: Jarad Jarman, Journal Gazette & Times-CourierThe Panthers were picked eighth in the OVC's official preseason poll, as voted by head coaches and sports information directors. The league's media poll, released last week, predicted the same finish.
Q: Why transfer when you could have stayed at Cornell and play for a team also (probably) picked to finish 8th?
A: The Ohio Valley Conference has nine teams.

You need someone to confirm that a student has an academic reason to stay at Cornell beyond 8 semesters to get financial aid after 4 years.

In Andy's 20 years as AD, Cornell football has had 2 winning seasons.  In the 11 years prior to Andy taking over as AD, Cornell football had 6 winning seasons.  Discuss amongst yourselves

To make it look feel even worse, look at these stats from the CFA letter to it's members:

Quote from: Football Record Since 1999: 2 winning seasons | Overall winning percentage 35.6% | Ivy League winning percentage 34.2% | Last 10 seasons overall winning percentage 28% | Last 10 seasons Ivy League winning percentage 25.7% – RESULTS MATTER!\\"

So in Andy's 20-year tenure as AD, a winning  football team has turned into a perennial doormat, with uncompetitive facilities, insufficient funding, & alienated supporters who may no longer financially support the program.

Pretty much.  And your point?  ::deadhorse::

CAS

Is it time yet for another 6-year extension?
