If the Bulldog faithful are content with 5-5 or 6-4 records and third-place finishes in the league, then Siedlecki has proven that he is the man for the job. If the sons of Eli ever want to celebrate the big win over Harvard or Penn—against whom Yale is 2-10 in the past six seasons—and another Ivy title, however...
