If someone is able to get a screen-shot, would love to get Cornell's ESPNU specific logo at the lax game.

A center committed today, Deion Giddens, seems a little undersized at 195 but if he bulks up like Foote did, went from 225 to 265 in 3 years here, its sounds like he has a lot of upside

It was a typo and is now corrected.

Great collector item for die hard hoops fans of the 09-10 team

Risky.  High rewards though if it works out.  Radical departure in every way possible from Donahue.

A live panel on air and in person.

We had so many requests, so here is a nice highlight package of the men's hoops team's thrilling win against Davidson in the Garden.

Quote from: YankeeLoboIf we run the table, getting a #10 seed is a very likely outcome.  I wouldn't hope for any seed higher than that because if we win the 8 vs. 9 game, in all likelihood we play the #1 seed in the 2nd round.

I'll still take the better shot at a first round win since the 2 seed we likely face if we win a 10-7 game is probably to rough us up.

Princeton got a 5 seed and beat 12 seed UNLV.

They finished No. 8 and played a 7 man rotation.  Very little depth, tons of talent in the top 5.

Quote from: CornellFanWhy not?  Cornell did it 07-08 with a younger and less talented roster.  Cornell just has to take one game at a time.  And should Cornell slip up once and finish 13-1 in the Ivy and 27-4 overall... still a good case would be made for Top 25 consideration.

If it's difficult to imagine Cornell running up a 14-0 record, it's no easier to imagine another Ivy squad doing it.

Enjoy the season and let the bracketology fall where it may.

Last season's team was killed with injuries... Dale played the entire season on a bad hamstring while Tyler missed considerable time as well.  We are still battling the same injuries, but have played better because of added depth--- thanks to the transfers (Coury/Groebe) and the emergence of the underclassmen such as Wrobo, Peck and Wire.

Quote from: CornellFanCornell is 15-3... with 2 of its losses coming ON THE ROAD to a pair of teams in the RPI top 5 (Kansas and Syracuse)....

Of those two losses, Cornell gave BOTH Syracuse and Kansas (in their gyms) one of their toughest 2-3 games of the season (numerous quotes from Self and Boeheim say Cornell was among their best 2-3 opponents).

Cornell does not get credit just for close losses.  We have good wins too... won games on the road AT St. John's, AT Alabama, AT La Salle, At UMass, and at Drexel, while beating Vermont and Davidson in neutral settings and St. Joe's at home.

The wins were also with key injuries. The win over La Salle was without Dale AND Tyler, while we also beat Drexel and Vermont without Tyler and Groebe.

This Cornell team is definitely deserving (at this point) of Top 25 consideration.  And if they run the table in the Ivy (and finish 28-3), they will be Top 25.

Of that I can agree. Doing it however?
