No one needs to worry that Tommy Amaker isn't realistic about Harvard's stunning win over BC; however, this is one aphorism I certainly never heard before!
"What's the old saying?" Amaker asked. "Today's peacock is tomorrow's feather-duster."
I hope he did get to savor the win before he headed back out to recruit. At least, the team is now on exam break which gives the coaches a chance to catch their breath.
Lou Carnesecca used the peacock/feather duster line about once every two weeks in the 80s.
