The Ivy League has apparently modified its 2021 recruiting requirements and will no longer require SAT/ACT test scores for recruits. I don’t know how this affects their Academic Index, but I can’t see how they can apply the current one without test scores. I wonder how the Patriot League may address this issue, if at all:

No answers yet.

So what you're saying, and the IL is doing, is following the lead that Alma Mater established for its general student population many years ago. I suppose, being that they're the smartest people on the planet, they had to let an appropriate amount of time pass - lest they be seen as not thinking it up themselves.

Georgetown getting good pub from McLaughlin from Hero
Mentions 5 recent commits. Not sure where that puts them.
Beat out HC with a #24 national ranking for last years class ahead of HC at #28

I’ll believe the GU thing when I see them consistently winning on the field. It’s not like they all of a sudden care institutionally about the sport. Minor facility upgrade but still no better than what many HS have. No scholarships.

Don't know which, if any rising Mass. seniors HC was courting; but there's no football in the fall here. Will be interesting how this plays out; offer in hand from a lesser program should mean a lot more to some of these families than waiting around for UMass/UConn/BC to swoop down.

I would take Chesney's recruits over GU recruits every day of the week. They will also be better coached during their careers at Holy Cross.

I would take Chesney's recruits over GU recruits every day of the week. They will also be better coached during their careers at Holy Cross. Both schools are well coached with good, but never great, recruits. The PL will see to that. I see that the annual scholarship topic has come up again (above). Nothing has changed since 2013. Clearly, Georgetown is not moving on this and the PL is utterly uninterested in doing anything about it. From a practical sense, what's the point? To double the number of grants offered by the school as a whole (currently ~58 men, ~65 women across 30 sports teams) is not likely, and for what? So Georgetown can finish in 5th instead of 7th in the Patriot League? As long as the Ivy Index continues to limit Georgetown to one standard deviation of a mean SAT now approaching 1500, the pool of available talent (which isn't much at that tier) does not justify the additional spend. The PL finished 11th of 13 conferences in 2019, ahead of only the SWAC and the Pioneer. If you were an investor, it's not an upward trend. sports.yahoo.com/ranking-fcs-conferences-2020-102022529--ncaaf.html

Thanks--I should have been more careful in scanning Sagarin's rankings

breezy Curatolo to Lehigh. Bucknell up to 4 commits per Bison 137. I wouldnt discount Hoyas recruiting over the last 3 years. Hoya issue has always been lack of depth and an OL. I have no explantion for Hoya's recent surge in recruiting. Luck? More need funding? Dunno, but it is quite real. They are not an easy out now. Herosports just published its review of FCS. QB recruits. Hoya's 3* QB is very highly rated.
