... and assistant Mike Jordan—Colgate to the Dance for the first time in 23 years!

Landing a quality Northwestern transfer who was immediately eligible sure helped.

Jordan and Langel - one of the great backcourts in Quaker history spoken in the same breath as Pawlak/Neuman, Bilsky/Wohl, and even Allen/Maloney.

It was an entertaining game. Bucknell made the big comeback with that guy hitting treys on four consecutive possessions, but then the Red Raiders dug in, started forcing turnovers and got back to running decent offense. Nice job by Colgate.

1.) Has it really been that long since Adonal Foyle? Man, time flies when you're having. . .something.
2.) Sheesh, it's like a late '90's-early '00's Palestra time warp
3.) How was the transfer able to play right away?
4.) I didn't think Colgate's red had anything to do with Indians.

I remember beating St. John's in the '79 East Regional Finals when they were the Redmen and had all sorts of Indian, err Native American, regalia on their uniforms.

So here is the cockamamie reasoning employed:

RESOLUTION

WHEREAS, the nickname Red Raiders was originally coined by Dexter Teed as a reference to the new maroon uniforms of the 1932 football team, but later associations for many years created references to Native American caricatures and mascots,

AND WHEREAS, though Colgate dropped the Native American references in the 1970s, sentiments connected to the old mascot linger and there has been pressure to change the nickname,

AND WHEREAS the on-campus Committee on Athletics - comprising students, faculty and staff - has recommended that "Red" be dropped from the Red Raider nickname to remove any possible inference of a racial stereotype,

AND WHEREAS, the State Education Department is encouraging high schools throughout the state to change nicknames and mascots that signal a racial stereotype, and "Red Raiders" is on that targeted list,

AND WHEREAS Colgate recruits students from those schools and seeks to be a model for them,

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Colgate teams henceforth shall be known as the Raiders, and further, that as new uniforms, equipment and publications are phased in, they will incorporate the new name.

The one I don't get is Hofstra. The Flying Dutchmen was a great nickname. And it's not like the Dutch have been systematically shat upon.

Now they're The Pride? Yuck.

But the wikipedia flying dutchman entry says:

The Flying Dutchman (Dutch: De Vliegende Hollander) is a legendary ghost ship that can never make port and is doomed to sail the oceans forever. The myth is likely to have originated from the 17th-century golden age of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). The oldest extant version has been dated to the late 18th century. Sightings in the 19th and 20th centuries reported the ship to be glowing with ghostly light. If hailed by another ship, the crew of the Flying Dutchman will try to send messages to land, or to people long dead. In ocean lore, the sight of this phantom ship is a portent of doom.



So can't you understand how that is offensive to umm, uh, well....

Actually that was a great nickname.

That reminds me of the 94-95 Quakers winning the Holiday Festival at MSG by beating Adonal Foyle's Colgate team followed by St. John's with Felipe Lopez and Zendon Hamilton. St. John's was ranked in the top 20 at the time and their two stars were on the cover of Sports Illustrated.

Nice link GoGreen. Here is the first line of text I saw when I followed your directions to scroll down the page:

“I regarded round for the designated NCAA coaches seating space,” the Colgate basketball trainer mentioned with fun Thursday morning. “In any respect the ones AAU tournaments, they at all times have a spot the place the coaches are intended to take a seat. I couldn’t to find one who morning. It sounds as if, there used to be little need.”

You aren't seeing the first sentence?

"Matt Langel recalls strolling into a nearly empty Las Vegas health club 3 summers in the past and knowing he used to be the one school trainer within the position."

The part you quote is the second paragraph from the link.

The lede of the article appears to have been written by someone who is not a native English speaker or to have been machine translated:

“I regarded round for the designated NCAA coaches seating space,” the Colgate basketball trainer mentioned with fun Thursday morning. “In any respect the ones AAU tournaments, they at all times have a spot the place the coaches are intended to take a seat. I couldn’t to find one who morning. It sounds as if, there used to be little need.”

Right, they’re using translation software in an attempt to infringe on the original copyright (in this case, one held by the Washington Post & Feinstein) by claiming they’ve paraphrased the source.

Then they hammer visitors with junk ads and, potentially, malware.

Which is why it’s poor link etiquette for any blogger, or Facebook friend, or Twitter handle, or any other social media account you follow to send you to such sites.

Or a poster abusing his fellow members of this particular message board.

And has been widely described as poor etiquette dating back at the very least to the early ‘00s, when blogging really took off.

GoGreen could even Google this if he wants to educate himself.

I’m not using profanity to express a disagreement. I’m using profanity to describe your childishly obstinate behavior.

You continue to insist—with sarcasm and insults—that you linked to an article when, as multiple people here have noted, you linked to nothing but gibberish.

There’s no disagreement over an opinion here. You’re repeating a lie.

But OK—since you don’t like to have an adult who continues to lie about the simplest of facts labeled a “dick” let’s resort to a synonym:

Please stop being a Trump.

So just for the record, Long Island University is dropping the Blackbirds mascot at least partly for reasons of fearing accusations of racism:

"Cline also said the school has heard that the Blackbird is an offensive racist mascot."

I miss BRF lecturing me that Langel would jump at the chance to coach at Cornell.

Okay, I don't miss BRF at all, but this story reminded of time lost in that stupid argument. Hats off to Matt for what he's done at Colgate.
