Wow - just got done with Jakes blog reading all the pro Fabish (the previous Columbia ingterim coach) comments - what a pile of BS! They are trolls - nothing more - probably from another school or just idiots. I think Jake does a great job - and honestly I would just take down any post that advocates nonsense about the previous coach.
That said, I also wondered why Bagnoli quit the team just before the season started - to ensure his guy Fabish was made the interim head coach? No doubt Columbia admins felt they were gamed - I had respect for Bags up until he did that, even if it was for health reasons - but you have to think he had an inkling he could not reasonably coach. I did not think kindly of Bags while he was at Penn - let's not forget that his coaches openly harrassed and denigrated our players - I expect hazing from players possibly - but coaches?
I'm sure back in the day Ivy coaches happily filled in a W before they played us - no doubt there is some kind of animosity towards us, and desire for the old days of Columbia futility.
If Fabish had put up a better season -- he might have been kept on - but he did not! Results matter in football and everywhere else for that matter. It could be that the success Poppe had last year was a fluke - but Fabish had the same players from Bags' crew and he could not get it done.
