Having watched no other Ivy League teams yet (I just see Yale is crushing it), I think Princeton looks like a tournament team with some upside depending on how the youth develop. Will be a fun team to root for.

I really like the minutes I’ve seen from Princeton freshman Landon Clark. He’s going to be a useful Ivy League player if he sticks around.

@barttorvik.bsky.social I noticed Caden Pierce in the Princeton top contributors still. Is he in the model? Is that artificially boosting Princeton’s chances?

@mattbrown.bsky.social I’m curious about the open records requests you’ve been filing for things like alcohol and hot dog sales. In order to request them there must be a “record” right? So are you asking for the entire spreadsheet? Just that line? Is that a “record” in the legal definition? Thanks!

In the biggest NYC news of the night, the Mike Magpayo era at Fordham starts with a somewhat embarrassing home loss to No. 356 NJIT.
NJIT, like seemingly everyone, totally reshaped its roster, but through mostly freshmen and sophomores, so maybe that can work, too?

This is me, I traded for Brian Thomas Jr. in fantasy today.
The Jaguars are listening on calls for WR Brian Thomas Jr., even if a move feels highly unlikely. They’re also shopping for defense.
