The latest figures I have are Colgate had the fourth highest grad rate for Div. I athletics overall. (Lehigh 94, Northwester 90, Duke 90, Colgate 89, Stanford 86) For Div. IAA football, for the years 1996-2000, the latest I know of, Colgate was tied for fourth highest (Bucknell 100, Colgate 86, Lehigh 86) third place was non-PL. Also, you have to be careful using figures from the NCAA which can be suspect. It is better to use the figures from the federal gov't. as they are less prone to manipulation.
Yes, let's get rid of Colgate. I really have nothing against Colgate itself. But perhaps if we got rid of Colgate, Gate Raider would go find some other message board to haunt, and take his elitist, self-congratulatory BS with him.
Sorry, if you dislike having some of factual information disseminated. I realize that most posts here have emotion at their base. It is not a bad thing to base some opinions on the facts.
Check out the comments of the leading recruits at 'gate. You will find they made the comments. I justed passed them on. I never said I don't post opinions. Posting opinions is not mutually exclusive to posting some facts. You get really defensive about HC BB. You need to stop back and take a few deep breaths. You're living on past glory and seem desperate.
