In response to cc66
I remember that discussion from the last years of freshman ball at Penn, when Penn had a freshman team of Tony Price, Bobby Willis, Matt White, Tim Smith, among others. And Columbia had a freshman team of Ricky Free, Juan Mitchell and Alton Byrd. I had friends at Columbia and we used to compare who was going to have the better team in the coming years. (It was close). But as to the topic of the last years of freshman ball, here's a NY Times article about the decision to allow freshman eligibilty and the moaning of the Ivy coaches about not allowing them to offer scholarships as the costs of education increase. https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1977...
