EDD and The Sad State of Providence Basketball

I was admitted but went to Gettysburg for the pre-seminary program.

A fine school, but not a fine WBB program. Other Ivy League schools have managed to field frisky WBB at times (see Princeton this year). Brown...not so much.

And yes, I was talking about Brown as LLU.

Penn and Harvard have been good at times too. Harvard upset an injury-depleted, #1 seeded Stanford team more than a decade ago.

I was admitted but went to Gettysburg for the pre-seminary program.

I would have liked it as an undergrad, but some of the faculty in my department were a__holes.

I considered Brown, but IIRC only applied to Yale among the Ivies. Had the grades but not the activities, although Wesleyan did accept me. But Rutgers was ultimately affordable.

More on-topic - I would call Providence College an obscure corner of Providence, and I've been there several times. But the lack of support of the program is astounding. You should be able to get more folks in for a top 25 opponent with some marketing. Are they ever going to have big crowds - probably not, but I think they could do better if anyone cared.
