I noticed on Twitter that this new talented QB also plays basketball. Maybe he can help us on the hardwood. Also, apparently his Dad is the AD of his high school. Maybe Columbia should fire Pillig, hire the Dad as Columbia AD, and he can then fire Engles. This QB recruit may be the solution to all our problems!!

In all seriousness, enjoy the WBB games this weekend!

Add Colin Cook, 6’2” WR from Tennessee also offered by Navy among others

Why would you fire the Head Basketball Coach of the Columbia Men's Basketball Team which is now ranked 351 out of 358 teams in the whole country? That is quite an achievement. However Engles is unlikely to be awarded with another contract extension by our Athletic Director until the team drops into to the 358th spot which could happen by the end of the season.

I saw that the younger brother of Marcus Libman has committed to Stanford. I had hoped that we might have gotten him.
