In response to james
Since the establishment of the conference in 1954 (?), the Ivies have generally managed to stay within spitting distance of something vaguely resembling competitiveness at the D1 level in the money sports. However, college sports is now going through a sea change and is becoming unrecognizable. I know that the Princeton and Yale fans are feeling pretty good right now, but I think reality is eventually going to slam into their programs soon as well.
I honestly don't see how the league can remain competitive in this New World Order without taking steps that I (and, probably, many of you) can't stomach. I've never been a supporter of our conference dropping down to D2 or D3 in the past, but I'm now in the process of doing a 180 on that POV.
