    It will be interesting to see what kind of staff he builds.

    Looks like Princeton hired a FB alum. Good for them.
    Harvard 2023: Back in the saddle again! A bit crowded, though.

    That is correct. The guy was doing a terrible job at Cornell anyway so they are probably not to sad to see him go.

    Tigers start out at Lehigh then open at home vs. the Pards. Shall we introduce him properly?

    I'm so out of touch that I didn't know Hughes was gone. Met him during the 2003 recruiting season and was not impressed, but I certainly do not wish him ill. What were the circumstances of his departure?

    Back to back 4-6 seasons, including some epically, historically terrible losses this year, like 38-0 against Columbia and 37-3 at Harvard. While he did win the 2006 Ivy title, he had only 2 or 3 winning seasons in his 10 years, all of which had Jeff Terrell '07 playing. Excising Terrell's games from the record, leaves Hughes with a very, very bad one. I've also spoken with players who did not think he was a good coach, but never went into much more detail than that.

    I would just stay with my NFL team. I was too lazy to even click on the link.

    2 years, 2 NFL assistants to head Ivy programs

    And Knowles is gone from Cornell? Interesting. He wasn't anything special as a coach, but he was a huge improvement over his predecessor. Big Red's Football woes run deeper than the head coach, me thinks

    Bob Surace ’90, a key member of the 1989 Ivy League champion Princeton football team, has been named the Head Coach of Football at Princeton University. Surace has been an assistant coach for the Cincinnati Bengals for the last nine seasons.
    Here's to hoping he opens the offense up and spreading the field.
