Why did 6 of 8 seniors quit the team at Yale?
Does anyone know if this is accurate and true? If true, I would guess the reason is that they think the coach is a crackpot.
It happens at all the Ivy's, if you're not playing after two years it's time to move on, a lot of kids will opt for study abroad and many other options available to them rather than be a practice dummy, there's no scholarship money to lose, so its a choice that is easily made
Really? "It happens at all the Ivy's?" Last years Ivy rosters:
2019
Dartmouth: 9 Seniors.
Cornell: 7 Seniors.
Princeton: 7 Seniors
Coumbia: 7 Seniors.
Brown: 5 Seniors.
Penn: 4 Seniors
Yale: 3 Seniors.
I would imagine most Ivy's do not bring in more than 8 - 9 players per year. Some will no doubt be forced out due to injury and some go in knowing they are never see the field. Although all of the players going Ivy have excellent grades and test scores 1 or 2 per class will have "supe high" academics these kids and are not brought in for their athletic prowess.
95% of the seniors quitting is not normal and it does not happen all of the time at the Ivy's. More fake news.
