What's this "Harvard" Everyone's Talking About?

I present what is perhaps the only context in which a statement like the following makes sense. From an article about the hiring of Tommy "Mock Turtleneck" Amaker as Harvard's new basketball coach:

Harvard was 5-9 in the Ivy last season. Those in the Ivy League have always considered Harvard to be the hidden gem among the league and with a transition going on at Princeton and Penn there is a chance for Harvard to move up in the coming years.

Perhaps that plucky school in Boston can distinguish itself and finally get the recognition it deserves.
