One thing is clear: The World Is Changing.
The Ivy world, that is.
Dartmouth firing its most consistently successful coach (across two different stints, no less)???
Harvard recruiting two Top 5 players in the 2017 class???
Yale pushing the Ivy League to 4-3 in the last seven NCAA Round of 64 games???
Makai Mason testing the NBA Draft waters as a sophomore???
Make sense of this madness on another episode of the 14 Game Tournament Podcast.
Postseason play is here. But, umm, first... An Ivy conference tournament!?! #2BidIvy on the women's side!?! Oh yeah, and a breakdown of the three Ivy postseason participants Yale, Princeton and Columbia.
Defending Ivy champs (technically true!) Yale finally clinch the bid they had waited so long to attain. A look back at the final Ivy back-to-back weekend and (as a bonus!!!) an even further look back at how the preseason predictions performed.
The final weekend is upon us. Will it be Yale? Will it be Princeton? Will it be Columbia... (okay, that one's a no). Maybe this will be the final preview of the year, or maybe, just maybe, we'll be off to The Palestra on Saturday, March 12th.
How a simple little metric has fared predicting at-large teams and what that might mean for #2BidIvy... It's a BONUS EPISODE of the 14 Game Tournament Podcast that takes a deeper look at the Easy Bubble Solver and how it might know more about the Ivy League's two-bid chances than the experts.
A complete attack on the current NCAA Selection Process isn't a good fit for 140 character bursts. Yet no one wants to read a War and Peace length treatise on it either. So, you end up with an hour of this (and some, minimal discussion of the Ivy title race). Enjoy!
Columbia's loss is Princeton's gain, as the Tigers' dramatic comeback keeps the hopes alive of a tight stretch run and the outside shot of a legit beef about #2BidIvy.
The #14GameTournament field is winnowing faster than the Republicans, as we're down to three with the two challengers facing off this weekend. Take a listen for your rooting guide to the weekend.
The high-leverage Columbia visit to Yale... ON FS1!!!!, but at 5 p.m. :(
And more on the Ivy race, as it were, and some nits and notes about some early statistical returns from league play.
It's finally here. Ivy back-to-back weekends are, well, back. Get caught up with what's happening in college basketball's most unique conference tournament with this week's edition of the podcast...
The first set of travel partner games are behind us. Time to take a look at what's transpired thus far, and what might happen in the three return games this coming weekend...
How predictive are the recruiting rankings from the popular outlets when it comes to predicting future output? And where do we stand with a full month of play under our belts?
Fasten your seatbelts... It's time to discuss why the conference tournament might not be so bad after all...
First podcast of the season: Why Yale is now the favorite, why Harvard might not be that bad and why Columbia's defensive struggles might persist.
