Even Yale Lies
January 27, 2012 – 3:20 am by HickeyThe Ivy League was founded on a bunch of hoity-toity ideals that include not giving out athletic scholarships and not allowing its football champion to play in the Division I-AA (aka FCS) playoffs.
Turns out the Ivies are just as morally challenged as the rest of college football, though that probably shouldn’t come as a surprise in the same year Joe Paterno went from Last Pure Man in Sport to pariah.
Yale quarterback Patrick Witt made news this November when he was faced with a tough decision: head over to England to interview for the Rhodes Scholarship, or play against Harvard in “The Game,” a rivalry that dates back to 1875. In a move certain to win over Yale alums everywhere, he chose The Game.
As it turns out, it’s no coincidence Witt rhymes with shit, because he’s full of it.
