WE GOT A VOTE!!!

Now we know there is at least one journalist covering FCS, (I wish they'd go back to calling it Division I-AA), football who knows Columbia is looking pretty good so far.

Of course, it may be the same journalist who gave Princeton a vote last week... but I think we all appreciate the recognition.

It's a start.
