    In response to hoopla

OK, I'll bite. It's not that hard since this is all opinion--which is a primary draw of message boards (facts be damned).

I think the best Ivy Coaching Jobs are in this order:

Penn-facilities are the best in the Ivy, tradition is the best in the Ivy, city location. If the administration commits to it like Harvard they could dominate

Harvard-Administrative advantage (resources), great location, best brand

Yale- closest to H in brand, although NH is not a great town, it's proximal to NYC, enough resources to succeed it seems

Princeton- I wish they were last but they aren't. I have no idea why anyone would ever consider going there.

Columbia-Great location, facilities aren't as good but the draw of NYC and the aura makes it a draw. Recent administration commitment gives them a better chance. Gym is awful IMO

Brown-of the lower three this is the best in my view primarily because it has the most reasonable location .

Cornell-Facilities and campus are nice but it is remote. How Donahue won there is still mind boggling at some level.

Dartmouth- Toughest job in the Ivy in my view. That said it's better than toughest job in the MAC or Big South, etc. I think you have to have extra resources to find the right kind of kid that will come there.
