Cornell Basketball 2025-26 Thread

Final is 104-99 Columbia. While we haven't been a strong defensive team the past several years, this year we are simply atrocious. I've posted previously that I think our ceiling is 8-6 in the league, and today's result doesn't change that prediction.

Nimani's absence was noticeable today. Saturday's game is as much of a must win as a game can be this early in the season.

Cornell's opponents know they drive right to the hoop.  The lack of size was really telling in this game with Columbia denying inside shots especially in 2nd half.  Give Columbia credit as they showed excellent spacing on offense. Yes need to win on Saturday against Dartmouth.

Dartmouth ran out to a big lead while I was watching wrestling but with the first three baskets out of halftime, Cornell is up 59-55.

And now down 14. Defense es no bueno.

102-91 final. Not remotely that close. Feigen with 33 and Noard with 20+.

D didn't have their leading scorer so... even worse than it looks.

Wrote a massive rant that got deleted when I accidentally left the page. Not even gonna bother rewriting it. Such a fucking embarrassing performance when we host Ivy madness this year. The system and the players suck, not much you can do with that.

The team can score but cannot defend to save their lives.  2 Ivy losses at home-cannot see this team making Ivy tornament.
