Giving credit where credit is due, legendary messageboard poster Holtsledge has turned up a potential Dartmouth recruit from Connecticut. New Canaan's Kevin Macari is a 6-foot-2, 215-pound wide receiver who a published report says has a 4.4 in the 40. Find a story in the Stamford Advocate. Macari is reported in the story to have 12 touchdown catches this fall and Holtsledge reports he had three more last night. (Highlight video from last year) From the story:
Macari said he has offers from Georgetown, Dartmouth and Rhode Island. There has been contact with several Division I schools.

Lamenting the fact that neither Columbia linebacker Alex Gross nor Lions quarterback Sean Brackett is a finalist for the Bushnell Cup, the Roar Lions Roar blog points out that winning the Ivy League player of the year award for a losing team is pretty much impossible. Green Alert Take: Although we didn't see the best of Brackett in the Dartmouth game, his numbers show he's clearly deserving of being among the finalists as is Gross.

The first-ever cheerleading link on the BGA blog. Turns out there were sisters on both sidelines of the Dartmouth-Princeton game.

From the Daily Dartmouth: "...(T)he Inter-Fraternity Council has recommended that the College re-recognize Beta Alpha Omega fraternity, formerly Beta Theta Pi fraternity. ..." Beta's president is senior Carter Scott, a terrific linebacker who saw early action against New Hampshire as a freshman only to see that season, and eventually his career ended by injury.

The Stanford Review has a story about Dartblog founder Joe Malchow. The caption to the photo says that Malchow started the blog, "as a freshman at Dartmouth University." You would think folks at Stanford would know better. The story also quotes former football player Nick Stork '06, although it misidentifies him as a captain of the team.
