Dartmouth won the Ivy League in 1990 and 1991 with Buddy Teevens as head coach and again in 1992 and for the last time in 1996. Teevens was and is a solid 1-AA coach, but unfortunately actualized the Peter Principle and coached Tulane to an 11-45 record in three years and anchored Stanford to a dismal three-year record of 10-23. His games and seasons in D1 were marked by a near total lack of ability to adjust over the course of a game or a season. He returned to Dartmouth the following year, and has been there ever since. He was 9-41 in his first five years, then unaccountably started to turn around. His record over the next four years was 23-17 as he was 6-4 for three of those four years and 5-5 in the other year. two years ago, his team finished 8-2, and they were 9-1 this year and won the league. Bully for Buddy.
