Good luck, Donn. We're rooting for you.

I hate to mention this because of the dorks who will come on here and hate on him, but good job to Saretsky on recruiting. I believe Jason is going to do a fine job at Harvard

saretsky definitely is

I thought that Princeton was a better academic school than Harvard. MIT better in the math/engineering sector.

Stanford is certainly on a par with Harvard academically, but in a different world athletically.

Princeton and Harvard tend to flip flop with the #1 ranking. Yale's been a solid 3rd for a while now. Those are the big three.

Stanford, Penn, Duke, MIT, Cal Tech seem to be the best of the rest.

I'm not saying any of this matters, you can get an amazing education at a state school, but if we're talking rankings, that's how it goes.

They have to get into school yet. At Harvard there is no early admission so you can't commit to going there. We'll see if they get in.

Princeton is ranked #1 for undergrad (this year, at least), but Harvard is the #1 university in the world.

What makes Harvard the #1 Univ. in the world? Money?

HArvard also has Dan Chenoweth, FL finalist from 06 and sub-9 for the deuce. He had a pretty respectable year as a true frosh this fall as Harvard's #2 at Regionals in 34th place; also finished 16th at the Ivy League championships.

What, they don't infer in the Ivy League? I was suggesting that Donn was the OP... (tooting his own horn, if you will).

I guess they don't care about their future in running. Going to Harvard will be one of the best things to happen to them academically, but running wise...i'm gonna go out on a limb and say they don't do jack after college. Hopefully they'll prove me wrong tho...

Stay out on that limb, buddy. You'll be one lonely son of a bitch.

Cornell was ranked above Penn in a recent poll I saw

Yeah, we got it. It wasn't clever enough to merit a response. Looks like you're tooting your own horn now.

I'll be surprised if they "don't do jack" after graduating from Harvard, oh wait you are referring to running. . .

In my opinion they have more freedom to do whatever they want after college than a grad from Oregon, CU, Wisco, etc.

There are plenty of post collegiate running options in Boston ranging from recreational clubs to sub-elite/elite groups (depending on your definition). Any of these will allow them to enjoy the sport in the future, which is important for anyone who loves running.

Outside of running the Northeast is ripe with many non-running opportunities. These aren't exclusive to new england and the northeast but they are very plentiful here.

Lastly, the running scene is great in Boston with so many different types of people enjoying the sport. The racing options include the club xc, indoor and outdoor track season, BAA and NYC marathons, hundreds of races that take place on the roads and all other types of terrain.

I think their futures are well take care of and that is exactly what they had in mind with they chose Harvard.

U.S. News and World has Penn 5 and Cornell 12. All 8 ivies are in the top 14.
