eh... no one goes 239 years without a few hiccups. It is rumored a fraternity at W&L was once permanently thrown off campus for attempting to hijack a train to pick up their dates for a formal. I think this supposedly happened in the late 40s/early 50s, but some rumors put it much earlier. And the decision to drop out of major college football was greatly influenced by a massive football cheating scandal in the late 50s.

All this proves is that the way we cluck our tongues at "college kids" today for their poor behavior, and the things student athletes do, is probably more than a bit hypocritical when looked at historically.

To have some further fun, my dad often grumbles when he hears about college kids getting arrested for underage drinking. I had fun reminding him one day that the reason it didn't happen in his day was because the drinking age in most states was 18. We got a pretty good laugh out of the fact he hadn't remembered that pertinent information.

This was partly a test to see how sensitive Tigerdom might be ... it actually drew a smite even with tongue in cheek firmly in place and smiley face in tow.  lol

I reviewed the announcements and saw 2 ... some big shoes to fill with presumptive starter Matt Pawlowski graduating in 2016.  Matt's started all 30 games for the Quakers and will be difficult to unseat in August.

Rest assured, I thought it was pretty funny.

I know ... you're absolutely right.  Guilford has an old dorm (students traditionally earned part of their board by helping with chores:  cleaning, laundry and meal preparation) named Mary Hobbs that's undergoing a $2,000,000 renovation because the sentimental value among the alumnae who've lived there is so high.

You are correct.  It definitely springboarded us forward. Horrible conditions that day. So glad for turf. The wind was awful at times.

I have the 2012 HSC at WLU quadruple overtime thriller somewhere. We could always watch that one instead. I might need a bit of that past glory after last season...
