* PLEASE NOTE: This is a tentative composite schedule that was worked up mostly by cross-checking available schedules from both Ivy and non-Ivy schools. In compiling this schedule a couple of mistakes were discovered in the previously posted individual schedules, and there might well be a mistake or two repeated here. If you find one, email it along and I'll re-post the corrected schedule until I get it right. For what it's worth, at least one school (no, not Dartmouth that I know of) is still working on adjusting the schedule.

Oklahoma high school quarterback Kirby Schoenthaler of Bartlesville will be making a recruiting visit to Dartmouth this weekend according to OKBlitz.com. The 5-foot-10, 180-pound Schoenthaler is holding offers from Louisiana Tech and Louisiana-Monroe according to the story.

There's a terrific video interview with him here that includes highlights. This story notes that a year ago he passed for 2,391 yards while completing 69 percent of his throws and has been clocked at 4.49 in the 40. He was chosen to the Oklahoma Class 6A all-star team as a running back according to this story, which notes that he accounted for "more than 40 passing and rushing touchdowns this past season." Schoenthaler was the "People's Choice," for the 2009 All-(Tulsa) World team.

The Omaha World-Herald has a Q&A with chairman of TD Ameritrade Joe Moglia, the new coach of the Omaha Nighthawks of the United Football League whose most recent coaching assignment was at Dartmouth.

This is hilarious. A couple of fans of the North Dakota Fighting Sioux ice hockey program have come up with a response to the ruling that the school has to drop the nickname. They are promoting (mostly tongue in cheek) the adoption of the replacement nickname, Suhaki. In case you are wondering, Suhaki is an endangered antelope that lives in Russia, Kazakhstan and Mongolia. Oh yeah, and it is pronounced, Sioux hockey. Find a story here and the Suhaki website here. They even sell Suhaki hockey shirts, sweatshirts and caps. Sure wish I'd come up with that idea. ... Which gets me thinking ;-)
