Below, some news and notes...- In a recent Tweet on Twitter, New York Times' Pete Thamel writes, "OK AP hoops voters. Who is putting Cornell in your Top 25 this week? Any mid-major have two better wins than @ and @?"
- We posted this news last night, but again, for Cornell Basketball Redcast listeners, Barry Leonard will have a halftime interview tonight with the Ithaca Journal's Brian Delaney. Delaney is the best writer out there covering Ivy basketball. During the pre-game show Leonard will interview Seton Hall head coach, Bobby Gonzalez, a Binghamton native.
- In a recent post, we addressed the definition of a "mid major" college basketball program. On a related topic, the BU Pipedream compared the basketball budgets of Syracuse, Binghamton and Cornell. The Pipedream writes, "As for private schools in New York, the money allocated to athletic funds varies significantly. Syracuse University had an athletic program fund of $52,050,104; its basketball program costs $7,784,244. Cornell University, by contrast, has funds close to the SUNY schools with a total athletic program of $17,794,181. Their basketball program, which features a competitive team, is allocated even less than BU's, with $821,897."
- Alabama head coach Anthony Grant said earlier in the week that Alabama “has gotten better” after a season-opening loss against Cornell. He told local media, “I thought our defense (against Jackson State) was better. I thought our lack of defense cost us the game against Cornell. But the focus was better on doing the things we have to do.” The Crimson Tide have a big game against Providence tonight.
- Princeton faces Army on Saturday. “First and foremost, [the Black Knights] play very, very hard. They take pride in competing,” Princeton head coach Sydney Johnson told the Daily Princetonian. “Second, they have a very good head coach, [Zach Spiker], who comes from a winning program in Cornell, and so he’s introducing a winning standard.”
- Penn's Glen Miller announced that starting center Andreas Schreiber has separated his shoulder again and is out indefinitely. Meanwhile, Tyler Bernardini has an ankle injury that will keep him out of Penn's Saturday game against Delaware.
- The Harvard Crimson published a story on two Harvard players who quit the team earlier this season. Neither play is expected to return to the program as an overcrowded roster reduced their potential for playing time.
- In case you missed it, we reported in the last 48 hours that former Cornell basketball player, Alex Hill is returning home to play for the University of Toronto, while Ka'ron Barnes ('03) is rumored to become a new assistant coach at Army under Zach Spiker.
