Who is though?

univ of hartford is similar to Suffolk Univ or Curry College or Nichols College. kind of the small private college teetering on bankruptcy.

Suffolk isn't remotely in that category. They are beyond fine financially, and gobbling up downtown real estate. It has literally grown by a 1/3 in 2 years, even with the pandemic levels of other colleges decreasing.

curry has an endowment of 100M, UHart has 175M, Suffolk 246M, yeah I'd lump them together. Suffolk's (night) law school is what the school was originally about. That's nothing for a private college. Harvard is 53B, Duke 12B, Stanford 37B.

Forbes gave Suffolk - D and one of the lowest grades
Hartford - C-
Curry C-

I don't recall Parcells ever saying that.

The actual quote was, "you are what your record says you are". Pretty famous Parcellsim.

I'm quite familiar with that quote. The difference between "record" and "schedule" is like night and day.

The record follows the schedule like night follows day.
