As a matter of fact, a review of the quotability of Harvard's varsity coaches would reveal that they can be divided into four distinct categories. Without mentioning names, these categories are as follows: Category #1-- This category consists of those coaches who refuse to talk to The Crimson. Never, ever, ever. Period. Current enrollment: one.
