I forgot: Princeton is getting Jordan Boyd-Graber. I don't know if he's going to play, but if he does, he might really help--he's quite good on science, and that's something Princeton's been lacking for a while.

I voted for Chicago. Looking at Chicago: I think Paul is right, that Andrew will play NAQT, and Subash will play ACF. I don't know who else will be playing at nationals, but I'm sure Andrew and Subash will be able to find good support--my impression is that there are a bunch of solid supporting play...

I meant that the ACUI/CBI does not care about the teams so long as they fork over the dough and don't go to other tournaments or raise to much of a fuss. Do you think NAQT or any other tournament cares aboot the team as long as they fork over the money? The only difference is that the money is a bi...

The cap is, at the moment, four per division, if I'm not mistaken, and they did, in fact, have four teams in DivII. Okay. That was my suspicion, but I couldn't remember (obviously it wouldn't make sense to allow one team to show up at a sectional and get an automatic bid). That said, evidently it m...

I'm guessing Dwight's dramatic PPG jump between ACF Fall and the Stanford JB is more due to differences in the fields and intrateam shadow (Charles Meigs didn't show up for the JB) than in the questions.

Woops, meant to say that they were outscored by a younger grad student on their own team. In my opinion this was not because Jon and Nick overlap much and end up depressing each other's PPG.

The rest of your post is appreciated; perhaps the original post was a little too harsh on high schoolers. But, this scenario just doesn't happen. It's a complete lie put forth by certain people in the college game who want to win without working and blame everything but their own laziness for their...
