i'm gonna go out on a limb and say that their roster isn't filled with jewish athletes, so..... Aren't NCAA athletic programs completely silo'd socially from 'regular' people, anyway?

IDK. It's Ivy League. I thought no scholarships for football were allowed.

Nothing changes in the recruiting cycles.

It just isn't allowed to be called an athletic scholarship lol. I don't know entirely what his process was like but I imagine it works pretty similar to the D3s who don't do athletic scholarships either.

Those protesters are a very small minority of nerds who can't spell SPORTS.

I am not entirely sure. If you dig into how the Ivy's work it allegedly is all need based funding only.

I would handle it by saying the university is dealing with it.

We had a player who was recruited by an Ivy in 2019. He was not going to pay anything. He ended up at a group of five school....and didn't pay anything either.

The Ivy schools have largely implemented systems of need-based aid. Tuition is on a pretty generous sliding scale, and for many students, zeros out tuition, books, and I think even housing. It's available to any student that's accepted, which is why it doesn't get counted as athletic aid.
What many of them do have, however, are restrictions on how many students they can get into the school to play sports. And from what I understand based on a brief interaction with one of their coaches who was recruiting one of our kids, there are a few different tiers of kids they can "get in" with lesser qualifications than the general student population. Something like two kids that might not quite have 4.0s and a full load of AP/IB/Running start classes. But there might be some variance in admissions policies.

Frankly, I don't know many football types that fit the complete narrative at those schools. I bet they'll have a tough time trying to convince parents of those types of young men to attend those two schools.

I don't think football players are going to worry about this. If you get a chance to get a scholarship nowadays you better count your blessings.

I coached at Yale many years ago. First off, most of these kids have plenty of choices. Second, the parents are very involved. Third, the aid packages each student gets are very similar. If you have choices, why go to a place that has all that nonsense. brophy I assume you are joking about your Jewish athlete comment but if not it's not a Jewish problem it is a society problem. Just my 2 cents

I think it’s important to realize that highschoolers considering those schools for the most part are not going to just”Focus on Ball”.

When I was coaching 1AA ball up in the Southern North East (Or Northen Mid Atlantic lol) every once in a while Harvard, on the basis of its big name, would beat out a kid also being recruited by Stanford, Michigan, UCLA etc. Interestingly enough, coaching buddies that were in the Ivy League were never really that concerned because the prevailing wisdom was that if a kid chose Harvard over Michigan/Stanford/UCLA etc, then football wasn't really that important to him.
