That’s why they’re called titles. The only issue here is whether Dartmouth will miss out on one because of rain on the last day of the season.

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: Re: I'll say this much Author: Watkins [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 14:56:22 05/06/24 Mon That’s every school’s prerogative not to hang banners. For most of the seven-decade history of the Ivy League, the only basketball gym which hung any banners at all was The Palestra. Princeton famously or quirkily did not have any commemoration of its many championships while Carril was coaching because he didn’t want them. Now most Ivy facilities in most sports display the championships won by the host team, both regular season and tournament. Did you notice the 1968 and 2023 banners at Levien Gym during the 2024 basketball tournaments?

[> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Re: I'll say this much Author: Go Green [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:14:01 05/07/24 Tue Dartmouth's had the men's Ivy championship banners (1950s) and women's banners (1980s and early 1990s) when I enrolled (1989). No idea when we put them up--possibly when Leede was built? I never saw a game at Alumni Gym. But from what I remember, there's no obvious place to hang banners. So I'm more than willing to accept that we didn't have any banners prior to Leede.

For a long time, not much heat in the dead of winter either — the (lack of) temperature was a big home-court advantage. A shame the Rudy LaRusso years weren’t recognized in some fashion.
