Catch This

A relatively slow day is a good time to check out this video of Andrew Hall's catch in the 2003 upset of Harvard. This is from the broadcast of the game by the YES Network. What the video doesn't show is that the play came on the heels of an official "sacking" Charlie Rittgers. The Dartmouth quarterback was scrambling for time while he looked downfield and one of the striped shirts blindsided him and knocked him to the ground for what would have been a costly loss if not for this play.

Speaking of quarterbacks -- past and possibly future -- a couple of them are in the news today. Jay Fiedler gets a mention in the Atlanta Journal Constitution as one of the veteran free agents the team might want to consider as a replacement for backup Matt Schaub. ... While there's still a missing name -- or two -- from this year's recruiting class, a name for next year has already popped up and it's another quarterback. Tyler Porco is a three-year starter for Pennsylvania's Peters Township. According to this story, Dartmouth Princeton, Colorado, Iowa and Vanderbilt have begun to court him. He's listed at 6-3, 210 and also plays linebacker.
