“Dartmouth seems to be stuck in the past. It’s time for the age of amateurism to end.” - Cade Haskins (of Minneapolis) and Romeo Myrthil (of Sweden), Dartmouth Men’s Basketball Player Representatives (see FUBeAR’s signature for further commentary upon “amateurism” and intercollegiate athletics)
“Today is a big day for our team. We stuck together all season and won this election.” - Cade Haskins and Romeo Myrthil, Dartmouth Men’s Basketball Player Representatives (Dartmouth Men’s Basketball Record 2023-2024 - Overall: 6-21 PCT: .222 | Ivy: 2-12 PCT: .143)…7-21, if we count the election as a win…as they seem to.
“The Ivy League college also said its men’s basketball program operates in the red, costing it hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. This, the college argued, proves that the team is offered as “part of its holistic approach to education” rather than operated as a money-making endeavor.”
“Let’s work together to create a less exploitative business model…” - Cade Haskins and Romeo Myrthil, Dartmouth Men’s Basketball Player Representatives
…so these “employees” are having their “talents” “exploited” in order for Dartmouth to LOSE hundreds of thousands of dollars AND 21 Basketball games?
ADDENDUM…
Mr. Haskins’ Playing Time the past 2 seasons…
