How About That!

Looking for something (read: anything) on a quiet Christmas Eve in the Ivyverse, I was scrolling through Wikipedia when I found a photograph of the plaque recognizing college football national champions. It includes the 1925 Big Green. It's a little hard to read but if you blow this shot up it reads:

1924 - Notre Dame

1925 - Dartmouth

1926 - Stanford

1927 - Illinois

1928- USC

Here's a stocking stuffer from Santa (or maybe Dartmouth athletic communications). It's a quick look back at the Big Green's thrilling last-second win over Yale in what was probably the highlight of the fall for most Dartmouth fans.

Harvard has announced its early decision recruiting class and it includes 6-foot-3, 275-pound offensive lineman Nate Turk, whose 6-4, 290 brother Ryan is a Dartmouth '28. Find capsule bios of the Harvard ED class HERE and Ryan Turk's bio HERE.

Green Alert Take: Here's hoping we get a glimpse of the Dartmouth ED class at some point soon.

EXTRA POINT

The forecast was right. It's going to be a white Christmas here at our Vermont hillside home. Hard to believe but this is a color photo looking out the window this morning as the last of about five inches of snow flutters down.

It's kind of hard to see but that's our seven-foot star in the middle of the field.
