Quote from: TrotskyHarvard USCHO thread now reporting that another top Harvard prospect, Jeremy Bracco, has decommitted.  If the other reports are correct that means four of their best have now split.  I suppose there is a hypothetical number where we start feeling bad for them.

Nope.

There are some rivals/hated teams where, if they're not any good, it feels like something's lost.  I hate Duke basketball about as much as any red-blooded American, but watching them flounder over the past few years has stolen just a bit of the fun of watching them lose (I know, they won it all like five years ago, what am I even talking about).

But Harvard?  No.  If they never scored another goal again, I'd never get sick of watching them get shut out.

I dunno... If this group of top recruits could have lifted Harvard to a national championship, that would have been really good for Cornell.

Nope.
I think I'd feel bad if it got to the point where they lost so many players that they couldn't field a team at all.

I mean, for us.  I'd feel bad for us because we couldn't take over their rink every year.  Not for them, because fuck them.

I have a lot of sympathy for every sucks player that has gotten a B in the last 10 years.

Ah, would that be J. Whittington Precisely III, scion of whatever families it would be appropriate to say "scion" about?
If you lead a good life, go to Sunday school and church, and say your prayers every night, when you die, you'll go to LYNAH!

J Whittington was in fact the last student at Harvard to receive a B. Born in 1903 and after barely leaving the Andover Academy he matriculated in 1924 at the age of 21. It is rumored that during his tenure there is no reported sighting of his ever entering an academic building. The Brothels and Bars of Cambridge were another story. Barely sober a day while a student he made his big academic mistake by actually turning in a paper. It was not JW's semi literate style that caused trouble but rather his contention that "Publik educatshun is gud." That earned him the wrath of his tutors.

News of this stunning achievement spread like wildfire. While he was shunned in some circles others pointed to his performance as solid evidence that meritocracy was the rule of the day.


Whitington's Father (Sucks,'01')was furious and only left half of his estate to Sucks. Whittington graduated (Magna Cum Laude) in 1929 and immediately headed for Wall St. The rest is history.

Someone has too much time on his hands.  Must be the off-season.

You know who has too much time on his hands? J. Whittington Precisely VI. He was kicked out of Harvard during the great Harvard Academic Cheating Scandal Of 2012. He's had some real trouble with the admittance criteria to "hold a full-time, paid, non-academic job in a non-family situation, for at least six consecutive months before becoming eligible for readmittance."

He did succeed in holding an upaid internship at a Scottish food procssing institution. He specialised in the processing of tubers in thermaly excited lipids. Like his ancestors before him tragedy followed. The fire eneded his intership but he reapplied based on effort and was readmitted based on his excellent credentials.  He is expected to graduate like his grandfather (Magna Cum Laude) in 2016
