Keeping in mind that assigning relative value to All-Ivy players is hardly scientific, we'll go ahead anyway and for argument's sake give three points for a first-team player, two for second-team and one for honorable mention. That being the case, here's the plus/minus for each Ivy League team heading into 2017:
All-Ivy "Points" Returning
Penn 23
Harvard 14
Princeton 13
Columbia 7
Cornell 7
Dartmouth 7
Yale 7
Brown 0
All-Ivy "Points" Lost
Yale 4
Cornell 8
Penn 8
Dartmouth 9
Columbia 11
Harvard 13
Brown 17
Princeton 21
All-Ivy "Points" Differential
Penn plus 15
Yale plus 3
Harvard plus 1
Cornell minus 1
Dartmouth minus 2
Columbia minus 4
Princeton minus 8
Brown minus 17
Green Alert Take: What does it all amount to? Not even the proverbial hill of beans, but it's kind of fun to debate ;-)

This is kind of fun. It's a high school football team from California doing the mannequin challenge before a trick play where the center snaps the ball through the quarterback's legs:
