If you had offered to pay his tuition, maybe Donville would have stayed.

Not a fan.

Seems quite harsh, considering how the Ivies screwed the pooch for those guys. Donville, following on the heals of his brother, gave a lot to the Cornell program, got his degree, and then did a grad year. He owed Cornell nothing.

Maybe it's useful to think about this relationship transactionally. Maybe not. When times were tough, he jumped ship and helped another team beat Cornell for a national title. Those are just the facts. Do with them what you will.

I harbor far more ill-will towards the Ivies for canceling the 2021 season than I do towards the players for transferring. We would have had Teat and Donville back in 2021 (Teat announced he would return for a fifth year, then went ahead and graduated when the season didn't occur). With that said, I don't support the transfers either—they could have returned to Cornell like Piatelli, but chose not to.

I miss Barry Leonard and.....the other guy whose mane I can't remember.

Mullet?

I harbor no ill-will. I'm just not a fan. It's like when an NFL QB goes to another team in the same division.

Virginia looked really good against Notre Dame today.

I still hold my breath every time he wins a face off.

Nice finish to the game. I definitely thought it was going to slip away.

Princeton won 3 of its [or is it it's?] 6 national championships in overtime: 1994, 1996, 2001, no OT losses, also one regulation one-goal loss. That was on my mind: different Princeton coach, different players, great in overtime. But since 2002, no Princeton team has made the finals, two teams lost in the semifinals.

[billhoward]

One positive difference versus teams of the last couple years? last decade? is that this year we don't go into tight-game, late-game situations where our getting a goal doesn't lead to the fear we'll gain possession after the faceoff via a caused turnover.

So much for predictions, though I doubt many could have forseen the throttling that Adler laid on young Coulter.  It will be interesting to see what the Princetonian clairvoyants will say should there be a rematch next Sunday.  You would have to believe that Adler has taken up residence in the poor kid's head rent-free.

Princetonian has yet to print an article on last Saturday's game.

Maybe they were only going to print one if Princeton won.
