The Princeton football blog talked with coach Bob Surace about star tailback Chuck Dibilio, who missed last year with a stroke after running for 1,068 yards as a freshman. From the post:“He’s (excelling at) the workouts,” said Surace about Dibilio, who is re-enrolled this semester. Medical evaluation – and the search for a cause of the stroke he suffered in January 2012 – is ongoing, leaving his availability for spring practice still uncertain.

It was long the toughest game on the Dartmouth schedule and I fully understand the arguments against it, but count me as someone in favor of the Big Green playing New Hampshire (particularly now that the Patriot League is going scholarship). One reason why I like the series: For the most part, UNH does things the right way. Sure, there was a highly publicized incident several years ago, but it's a good school that doesn't rely on transfers and graduates its kids. The CAA just released it's Academic All-Conference team and UNH boasted a league-best 24 members.
Dartmouth and UNH are scheduled to play next in 2014. There's a quick mention about the football series in a Wikipedia entry about the New Hampshire-Dartmouth rivalry.

Speaking of football and academics . . .
Not sure which is stranger. The idea that the fellow in this picture (and story) won the Heisman Trophy or the fact that he's taking all of his classes online this semester.

Have you voted in the Patriot League scholarship poll over there to the right? I'm going to post the results Friday. If there's enough interest in restarting polls, I'll solicit ideas from you in the future. But first let's see how many folks vote on this one. Note that you can vote just once, but that you can vote several options.
