Subject: Re: Men’s Bball Author: The Mountain LIon [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:28:20 10/09/24 Wed In reply to: joiseyfan 's message, "Men’s Bball" on 13:06:36 10/08/24 Tue After six or seven years of dismal recruiting, Columbia somehow turned everything around three years ago and recruited a very good class. Then after another bad recruiting year, the Lions recruited the current very promising freshman class. Aside from the recruiting improvement, the Lions did not lose any players from last year's team to the transfer portal. So this is mostly about much improved recruiting and holding on to what you have. Given the huge improvement in personnel, it is not unreasonable to expect Columbia to compete strongly for the Ivy League Men's Basketball Championship this season, and if the Lions do not finish in one of the top three places in the Ivy League, it will be a huge disappointment.

[> Subject: Re: Men’s Bball Author: Roar Lion [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 15:38:38 10/09/24 Wed CU returns four of top six scorers from last year and I think all of our top five rebounders. I can't say whether the incoming freshman are good enough to contribute, certainly hope so. I agree with AO that returning the core of a 4-10 team is not that exciting, but most of them were sophs last year - they should be getting better. Is 7-7 realistic? I don't think competing for a title is in the cards, but we ought to be a contender for a tournament spot. How many chances will this coach get? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
