Cornell Jihad
If you thought WVU and its fans were insane, check out Cornell's reaction thus far to Boston College hiring Steve Donahue to replace recently-fired Al Skinner as its next basketball head coach.
"I told the folks at BC that they made a great hire," Cornell athletic director Andy Noel said. "Our university really wanted to keep Steve. I'm a little heartbroken, but we turn the page and become a BC fan forever. ... We're appreciative that we had a decade with Steve Donahue."Ouch. It gets even worse. I personally would not want to be a student in Chestnut Hill right now, or anywhere else in the Boston area for that matter. Brace for impact:
Dale said the players understood why Donahue left. "It's good for him, and we all know that," Dale said. "The decision he made is based on him and his family. He had to do what's best for him."I feel bad for Donahue. The guy's reputation is ruined, and he's going to be in a long, bitter legal battle with Cornell. I hope BC has his back in this fight. I also sure hope that Donahue can have a safe move out of Ithaca without too much trouble from those savages. Good luck, Coach Donahue, and godspeed...
Surely he shredded important medical papers on the way out, robbing students of health insurance.
when nobody was around and only those important records for which there was but one copy.
Next thing you know, the Boston Globe is going to begin assassinating the man's character. Cornell fans sure are a low-class bunch.......
but only if Donahue "forces" his players to practice 23 minutes over the alloted weekly maximum. And, of course, eight hours on Sunday. Anybody see Rosenberg at Metro Airport boarding a plane to Boston??
I hear the Boston Herald is after Rosenberg. They have a lead on a story about a Cornell assistant videotaping a Temple practice...
is sarcastic
I really wish you could +1 multiple times for posts like these.
I kept trying to click it over and over again, but the button, it does nothing!
I've been holding onto the Robert Muldoon card for a while and have been waiting to unleash it on a witty thread like this.
I heard he deleted some emails before he left.
Something tells me some people aren't going to get it without the "/sarcasm."
Man I feel dumb for double checking for something in those quotes that was vicious. Guess my sarcasm radar isn't on point tonight.
didn't governer manchin say that he was honored to have had rich rod and that he'd become a michigan fan forever?
No dong punches at Cornell.
Stay classy Cornell!
Had a couple too many drinks tonight, and literally just spent twenty minutes trying to find what was so brutal about the situation. I am an idiot.
i just the PCMB (Penn Collegiate Message Board) and it's a wide assortment of 'lulz' and 'ohmygawd we own this rivalry cuz your guy left.'
oh PCMB... you so remind me of something
If you can't get into college,
Go to Penn! (clap, clap)
Wow... that's pretty classy. And a very witty post to share it.
Cornell should be happy the man made their program one of the more prominent programs in the samll conferences. He left to take a bigger job, it's not like he acted like Lane Kiffin or Ed Orgeron when he left.

1) Ivy League on one hand, Appalachia on the other.
2) WVU is delusional in that they think they're not a stepping stone job. Maybe for a guy like Bill Stewart they are not, but for a guy like Rich Rodriguez (Brian Kelly, etc.) they most definately are.
Anyway, this post made me laugh. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, my computer is melting from the snark. Nice post.
are piiiiiiissed...
