Another honor has rolled in for junior Tanner Scott. The All-Ivy League wide receiver is one of 10 Dartmouth student-athletes named to the Academic All-Ivy team for the fall. An economics major who walked on to the Dartmouth team, Scott led Dartmouth with 45 catches for 510 yards and three touchdowns this fall.
The Coschocton Tribune in Ohio has a story about local high school honors that says 6-foot-1, 210-pound Coshocton running back Marcus Johnston is, "most certain to play at the collegiate level, with schools like Dartmouth, Duquesne and Ashland courting his services." Johnson ran for 1,709 yards and 24 touchdowns last year. He was the offensive player of the year in the Eastern District and named to the Division IV all-state first team.
Now to the coaching news. ...
Today's Daily Dartmouth has a column about the relative success – and lack of success – of some Dartmouth teams. The column includes this:
Facility upgrades are one thing, but if the athletic department wants to show prospective students that Dartmouth wants to win, it’s time to replace underperforming coaches.Opinions on former Princeton football coach Roger Hughes are mixed in a Daily Princetonian look back at his decade in New Jersey. Another Hughes story in the Princetonian includes quotes from players who requested anonymity.
A third Princetonian story lists a handful of potential candidates to be the Tigers' next head coach.
Harvard coach Tim Murphy's name has surfaced with regard to the University of Virginia head coaching position that came open when former Penn basketball coach and current UVa athletic director Craig Littlepage dismissed Al Groh. Murphy is mentioned in a Sporting News story and a piece in the Daily Progress. His had been mentioned as a longshot candidate the last time Notre Dame was looking for a coach.
Speaking of Murphy, his former Crimson quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is the subject of an AP story headlined, "Fitzpatrick's fearless play sparks Bills offense."
