I think the rest of the League has less to fear about Harvard boosting its football team than what Penn may do to bolster its flailing men's basketball team, and probably the women too.

Believing for decades that it had a lock on supremacy in men's Ivy League basketball, can you imagine what steps Penn will take to rebound from where they sit now? I know the issue goes back a long time, but after admitting Jaden Hodge in football a few years after Yale cut him loose over his academics, I don't believe there is any level they won't stoop to regain their mojo.

Yes, the University of Pennsylvania only cares about winning at all costs. LOL.

There is no chance that Yale looked the other way, or possibly, young man was just not ready. The only place he can have his second chance is at a non-IVY League school-your bias is not hidden.

And your pent-up jealousy over Penn's history of success in basketball is quite funny.

Enjoy your hate filled day.

But yes, some overstated language on my end. Stoop to levels other Ivies won't would have been better wording.

Yale did not look the other way, it cut him loose as I said over his academics and never admitted him. He is on Penn's list of admitted recruits. Did they yank his admission after admitting him?

Jealousy over Penn's history of basketball success, now who is being funny? Might have been accurate if you put ancient in front of history.

No hate, the truth just stings you.
