Stories on yesterday's Princeton / Yale game can be found on goprincetontigers.com, courtesy of the Associated Press and on goyalebulldogs.com.

The article everyone will be discussing this week is the New York Times report about Harvard's questionable recruiting tactics. Add your thoughts in the comments.

Congratulations to former Princeton assistant Mike Brennan! In his first year at American University, the Eagles won the regular season Patriot League title and will have home court advantage in their conference tournament.

Will Venable scored the game-winning run in San Diego's 11-10 victory over Seattle.

Princeton recruit John Comfort hit four three point shots, but Fenwick fell 51-38 to OPRF in the Oak Park Boys Basketball Regional Championship.

Georgetown (24-4) stayed on top of the Big East, defeating Marquette in overtime, 70-68. The Hoyas are 8-0 in games decided by three points or less over the last two seasons.

Around the Ivy League: Congratulations to Cornell (20-5 / 12-0), who clinched the league title with an easy 86-53 win over Harvard (8-20 / 3-9). The Big Red ended 20 years of Penn / Princeton dominance and are the first team to advance to the NCAA tournament.

Indiana would can him at this point - let's see if Harvard can measure up.

It looks as if the grade point part of the NY Times recruiting story is moot at this point in time. " Mongo no wear big red H " now or ever. However Harvard's direct contact with recruits seems to cross a line recognized by the other Ivy coaches.

The idea of Harvard engineering a quick rise to basketball power house doesn't seem realistic. Just to become competitive is a slow uneven path where you try to get to .500 in the league then exceed it the following year. Just ask Joe Jones at Columbia.
