In response to mrjames
It appears that the Ivy League 2015-16 preseason media poll turned out to be reasonably accurate. First three teams in ranked order were Yale-Columbia and Princeton but it was very tight. It appears that Princeton may over perform relative to the prognostications.
As to the remaining teams, Penn appears to significantly over perform based on the preseason ranking. There is a case for Donahue to get Coach of the Year based on the talent level that he had to work with. His challenge will be working with a similar low talent level for the next year or two.
As to next year, the infusion of talent in one year at Harvard is something brand new for the league and is somewhat unpredictable as to how very good they can be. Dartmouth may well be a team on the rise. The return of all players at Princeton, barring injuries, is something unusual for a team that could finish 12-2 or 13-1 in the prior year.
We will look forward to your projections.
