Something I've been wondering: As I recall (correct me if I'm wrong) Brian
McCutcheon was fired in the late spring or early summer of 1995. So, did
Mike Schafer have any part in recruiting any of the members of the class of
1999? Schafer's always been known as a great recruiter and coach, and if
last year's Cornell team was a "McCutcheon team", then I think that makes
the job he did last year that much more impressive. Just wait until Schafer
gets a few more classes under his belt. If you look at Cornell's success
under McCutcheon, many of the key players on those teams were recruited when
Schafer was an assistant here. It was after Schafer left that they began to
stumble a bit.
