Man a quant like you I would’ve expected “risk averse” from. You’re hanging out in my hood if you’re going to start using colorful and incendiary normative comments. I welcome it! https://youtu.be/oG6fayQBm9w?si=sjd0D4I802nSzDjK LOL, I didn't think pointing out that university administrators are ri...

Gt takes it, after getting a shot clock reset that replay showed they clearly should not have gotten.

Big Red's hopes dodge the first of 3 bullets.

We're all Pennsylvanians now!

Gonna wait for the end to run RPI.

Gt has tied it, but Nova's ball, 47 sec to go, time out, shot clock off

AND they're going to OT, 10-10

Especially since nothing else was working.

In the dept of more bad news, Nova leads Gt 10-8 with 10 min to play, after trailing 8-1.

I would have liked to see a lot more dodging from X by Goldstein.

Baltimore, 1970:

Gtown led Nova 8-1, now 8-8 at the half

No voting allowed either!

The NCAA tournament dramatically cheapens the regular season, making it virtually meaningless.

CU77... do you agree with the committee chairs? I think you're a strictly math guy and prob do? Any bias there for Big Red? No. I would like to see a 9-team NCAA tournament of conference-tournament-winners only. But since absolutely no one agrees with me on that: then I would use Massey ratings to ...

Multiple committee chairs have said over the years that a win in May means no more or less than a win in February.

A Princeton loss to Penn will drop their RPI below Cornell.

Well, the bracket isn't set yet. They are position to be the last at large team depending on the results of Georgetown/Villanova, Michigan/PSU and maybe even Penn/Princeton? I think the Michigan/PSU game is most consequential (Michigan wins and they're likely out), and the results of the other game...

Cornell still has a shot at a bid if Penn, Penn State, and Georgetown all win. Princeton will drop below Cornell in RPI with a loss to Penn, and does not have a top-5 win, whereas Cornell does.

RPI after today's games: 1. Notre Dame 0.7000 2. Duke 0.6710 3. Johns Hopkins 0.6521 4. Syracuse 0.6440 5. Virginia 0.6364 6. Denver 0.6295 7. Maryland 0.6274 8. Penn State 0.6244 9. Penn 0.6142 10. Georgetown 0.6113 11. Princeton 0.6083 12. Cornell 0.6080 13. Yale 0.6038 14. St Josephs (PA) 0.5913 ...

On the plus side, Bozzi and Wallace are back.

I dunno, they spent some time during Yale-Princeton game talking about the great culture of Cornell lax and how it's persisted over the decades.

And you know that Hop fans all believe that Q hates Hop (his alma mater), right?

I'm surprised Q & C are doing the Ivy and not the ACC ...

Respectfully, can you name one thing JT did wrong at Amherst that would support a foolish statement like this? It's not what JT did, it's the fraidy-cat nature of university administrators, especially in the current environment. The very last thing the Brown admin needs right now is a new controver...

FWIW, I didn't mean to cheat. I'm simply pointing out: if salaries of your faculty/ancillary staff are even 20% covered by a specified grant/donation, that's a lot of money you don't have to take out of the General Fund to pay for stuff. I'll quit after this, but: that's not how the accounting work...
