Had a chance recently to stop & see my Kindergarten teacher on her last day. My Mom retired after 42yrs in the classroom.
There are a lot of teachers & coaches in our family, but there is no doubt who the best is! She also holds the title of best person on earth. No one better.

As a football coach, you have two options when deciding on a wedding date....it has to be in July or July. Made the best decision of my life 9yrs ago today.

The Patriot League is full of world class institutions. I know 1 that doesn’t apologize for winning championships.....We were great, we’ve been great, we’re still great and we’ll be great. Numbers don’t lie. If you love football, it should be an easy decision.
The original Patriot League championship trophy was named after legendary Colgate coach, Fred Dunlap. The Patriot League Coach of the Year Award is named after legendary Colgate coach, Dick Biddle. How do you follow up those icons? Check out these numbers:

We don’t apologize for our football tradition. Never have. Never will.
Earlier this week, our guys heard from one of the best ever. Former Head Coach, Fred Dunlap '50, at the age of 93, spoke with pride about the tradition of excellence here at Colgate Football.
