Per Wikipedia, "Farmer will lead Cleveland to many Superbowl's [sic] and draft Johnny Football." Heh. That probably won't last, but the screenshot lives forever.

Great news.

So Duke alums will have run both the Cavs and the Browns.

Need to get someone in charge of the Indians now and finish the trifecta.

I believe Princeton claims the Indians (Mark Shapiro ... son of agent Ron Shapiro).

Just looked up who's coaching the Browns these days ... apparently their coach's dad was a famed coach at Central Bucks West ... which produced Randy Cuthbert ...

Wasn't Ray Farmer adept at blocking extra point and field goal tries?

Duke football and the Cleveland Browns, in one lifetime. No one can say Farmer is unafraid of a challenge.

Yea, but he did enjoy a year of team success at Duke in 94. Not sure he'll have that much fun in sunny Cleveland.

I remember him blocking an extra point, catching it and running it the other way into the end zone. I don't even remember if that actually counted for any points, it was just so awesome.
