Next door, meanwhile, the Dartmouth baseball team works snow off of the infield tarp. Today is supposed to be 45 degrees and sunny but anywhere from 2-10 inches of snow may fall overnight and tomorrow.Gary Emanuel, a Dartmouth assistant under Buddy Teevens the first time around, has joined the coaching staff at San Jose State after serving as the San Francisco 49ers defensive line coach the past two years.
Jay Fiedler is listed in a group of nine quarterbacks in Scout.com's "Best Available Free Agents - Offense." ... Although Fiedler recently worked out for the Atlanta Falcons, the team signed Joey Harrington. He's rumored to be in line for a look by the New York Giants, but the team is expected to be talking with former Dallas Cowboy Anthony Wright as well according to the Newark Star-Ledger.
Missed this the first time but in the final round of cuts the Berlin Thunder of NFL Europe waived former Princeton secondary star Jay McCareins. ... Check out the Roar Lions Roar blog for "The Freshman" & the "Old Alum" Talk Spring Practice!
There's been no formal announcement out of Harvard yet -- perhaps today -- but the Crimson is expected to hire former Michigan coach Tommy Amaker to lead its basketball program. Amaker's interview energized the players according to this quote from guard Andrew Pusar in today's Harvard Crimson:
"When he was in that room, he got everyone motivated right away. Numerous people said if he was the coach, they would want to step out on the court and play for him from day one. I’m psyched about it, I know the team is psyched about it.”And finally this -- Columbia is in line to receive a $400 million gift from "media mogul" John Kluge, a 1937 graduate who already gave the school $110 million between 1987 and 1993 according to a Wikipedia bio that lists his net worth at $11 billion. The headline from today's Columbia Spectator:
Kluge To Donate $400 Million
Alum's Donation Is Largest in University's History, Will Be Dedicated to Financial Aid
According to the Associated Press, the gift will be one of the largest ever made to American higher education. ... For frame of reference, Henry and Betty Rowan gave $100 million to Glassboro State College in 1992 and they named the school after them! It's now Rowan University. Perhaps the least Columbia could do is rename the athletic teams the Columbia Klugers. It's got a ring to it, don't you think?
