In any other Division I conference, the idea that players are there for the schooling ahead of the sport would be laughable. But for the Ivy League I believe it. Surely these guys went in knowing that the real payoff was the education and connections they make on campus. In fact, I wonder if they didn’t take the lead on unionizing precisely because they knew they were risking less than players at Boston College or Drexel or some other private school with athletic scholarships.

Not your typical 8 vs. 9 game.
