Here's some historical context. Biddle in 18 years won 80% of games against Ivy opponents. Dunlap in 12 years won 74% of games against Ivy teams (and half of those years Ivy teams were Div I/IA and much stronger than today).

Of course there are some very good Ivy teams some years, and expectations against these teams must be adjusted, but winning 50% of Ivy games in the scholarship era would be disappointing. Agree it's time to move on and beat Georgetown.
