Basketball 2014-15

[CAS]

In his 5 years at Cornell, Courtney is 24-46 in the Ivies.

[mountainred]

Final at Penn 79-72.  We finish 13-17, 5-9 (t-5th).

[CAS]

Penn fired Jerome Allen with 2 years left on his contract, requiring a $650,000 buyout. They want to win.

[mountainred]

Not the best closing argument for Bill, as the team finishes on a 1-6 streak.  Of course, the win was over Harvard.

One bright note from the Penn game, Freshman Wil Bathurst had 20 points and 8 rebounds.  Most of that production was after Penn took a 20 point lead, but someone will need to score on next year's team (whether the coach is Bill or someone else).

[CAS]

Yup the team limped to the finish, losing to the other 6 Ivies by an average of 11 points

Hopefully Donahue doesnt end up there. Courtney has to go, someone new cant possibly do worse, should be able to get at least 1 over 0.500 season in 5 years

Harvard must have made a deal with devil, Yale had the game to clinch the bid last night against Dartmouth locked up and after some missed free throws Dartmouth wins it off an out of bounds play with 0.5 left. Playoff on Saturday at Penn

They hired Tommy, so, yes, they made a deal with the devil.  Yale was up 5 with about 20 seconds to go and couldn't close the deal.  This is going to be a miserable week of practice in New Haven.

Will be rooting hard for Yale on Saturday, Harvard has had enough success recently

Any news whether Courtney will continue, or there will new leadership for hoops?

Andy...

I think I said roughly this last year too but Andy's eyes are on St. Louis at the moment.

It was true then and it is true now.

It should be noted that Shonn Miller was a unanimous first-team all-ivy selection.  He is just the 5th Cornellian to make two first team all-ivy squads in basketball.

Was but 5 years ago when under Steve Donahue we went to the Sweet 16.  We've won 1/3 of our Ivy games since.

Which is why you should be glad if you made it to Syracuse for the Sweet 16 game. This bus doesn't come along that often.
