Re: Brown - 2018-29019
To me, it is quite a remarkable turnaround so far. Digit Murphy took the program to great success but could not maintain it. Like other Brown sports, admissions and financial aid would not cooperate with recruits the coaches wanted and whose academic records exceeded the Ivy's AI. Successors seemingly had the same problems. I was surprise Bob was let go as he was getting some solid players but never heard what if any other issues were there. New coach, a DIII one at that, took Bob's recruits and has done well with them.

Not being narrow-minded at all. Just a comment. I am well aware of successful DIII coaches making the jump. Another DIII success story is Greg Fargo, coming from Elmira to Colgate. He was a solid DIII goalie at Elmira. We also know Norm Bazin made a very successful jump from Hamilton to UMass-Lowell. Most DI head coaches, both M and W, seem to come directly from a DI asst coaching position.
