    Can the Ivy League reclaim its old legacy of football dominance?

    Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and the rest of the Ivy League schools have tons of football history and deep donor pockets to draw from. So why does the world of player compensation not necessarily present an opportunity for these football teams to reclaim their ancient thrones? Rodger Sherman, author of Read Rodge, joins Ryan Nanni to talk about the customs and choices that keep the Ivy League from fully embracing the new form of college athletics and speculate on where and how those standards might waver. Phantom Island is presented by Homefield and produced by Michael Surber.
