How many Cornell players does it take to screw in a lightbulb.......?

Well one of Cornell's reserves used to start for Kentucky. :sssh::lol:

I would say maybe 1 and 0.

Could Dale play at UK? I'd say probably.

Maybe 1 from Cornell could play, but none could start. As for UK players getting into Cornell, it depends on how bad they want to win their first ncaa tourney basketball championship.

I agree but if they had a future NBA player like Patterson I think he could help out, really I think Patterson is a role model for the current system which requires players to wait one year after high school to go to the NBA. He's been a role model IMHO.

Aren't standards generally relaxed for student-athletes attempting to get in to an Ivy League school? Still well above the average student-athlete requirements but it is not as if you have to score a 1500 on your SAT. In high school, I looked at Pennsylvania for football, and the ACT/SAT requirements were lower than what a normal student would have to make.

I have no basis for this argument, but I'd guess that Patterson could sneak in to Cornell.

I think I read somewhere that 8 of the Cornell players are majoring in something like agriculture or something.

 

Of course, you have those ones that major in ecology, etc. But still, agriculture is a highly chosen "degree" for "student-athletes."

I agree. He a role model on and off the floor. But Jon Wall doesn't get technicals or loose his head or run his mouth would also be a good role model. My point is that there are a few more than just PPat even though he is the best example.

I don't know if I understand the vein of the discussion at this point, but if I understand correctly, this is my response:

 

You won't see "one and done" players at a school like Cornell. First, it's not a school that's easy to get into, whether you're an athlete or not. I don't think Cornell would prioritize their basketball program over the admission standards in general, even if specific components are relaxed, like the SAT score. I still think that schools like Cornell are by their very nature, prone to attract/accept serious students who happen to play sports.

I know a guy who played football at Cornell, graduated and is now a cattle and tobacco farmer!!!
