He was obviously injured even more severely than we thought. Past posts seemed to imply that he had an uphill battle for getting better but . . . . . R.I.P.

Truly heartbroken for the Dartmouth family. He was a great coach and appeared to be an even better man. Loved when HC played Dartmouth with more regularity. I remember when he was featured in the news for the robot tackling dummies he helped create. Must have been far more catastrophic than we all knew. Praying for the Big Green.
They are moving forward with their game vs Lehigh but I can't imagine what the young men are going through right now. Wonder how the Ivies and others will honor his memory. It might be nice, and I think appropriate, for other schools to offer a prayer/moment of silence before their own games this weekend. I can envision the Ivies wearing a helmet sticker this week.

One of the good guys in the game and really hated the UNH AD for the granite state trophy fiasco with some choice words when they won it at UNH a few years ago.

Deepest sympathies to Buddy’s family and friends as well as the Dartmouth community. Terrible loss. His legacy will live on and inspire others.

The Ivy League schools already had helmet stickers for him this past weekend. http://instagram.com/p/CxViqXuOzGe

Very difficult to find the words to express my profound sadness with his passing.
Certain coaches resonate regarding their presence beyond their athletic endeavors. Buddy was one of them.
The New England football community has lost a great leader. May he Rest in Peace.

HC and Colgate both have a long history with Dartmouth athletics. I am sure they will honor Buddy somehow on Saturday. He must have struggled valiantly to overcome his injuries. He was well enough to move to Boston and continue his rehab so hopefully his turn for the worse was brief. RIP.

The New England football community has lost a great leader. May he Rest in Peace. I would like HC to put on a helmet sticker or at least mention his passing. Certainly appreciated competing against his teams and his contributions to New England football and beyond are immeasurable.

Tragic....a true "Dartmouth Man".....remember hearing of him as a kid growing up as he played on the South Shore (Silver Lake HS I believe). Poor guy was knocked out of the '78 Dartmouth-HC game...took a huge hit.
Always seemed a class act and brought Dartmouth back as head coach to the heights they had in the '70s.
Thoughts and prayers to the Teevens and Dartmouth College family.

As it turns out my three sons and I are going to the Dartmouth Lehigh game Saturday. Buddy was a legend at Dartmouth so I'm sure the atmosphere will be muted. So sad.

Chesney has 28k followers so over 5k views isn't that impressive.

To make such a comment should be beneath you. Why would you try to make even this positive gesture into some sort of "failure?"

For the defenders of Foley here, the response would be that he is just being “objective.”

Objective and needless are not the same. His comment was not needed.
