In response to whitakk
I agree that there is no reason to criticize MH; he did a great job with what he had. When Brase was hurt, I was thinking we could lose 4-6 games in the league.
My only long term problem with Henderson is his inability to recruit a true center with low post offensive and defensive ability. This seems to be a problem he experienced previously with Carmody at Northwestern. He is able to recruit guards and small forwards in abundance.
Next year Harvard returns Edosomwan, and brings in Chris Lewis 6'8" 240, and Robert Baker 6'9" 190. Yale brings in Jordan Bruner 6'9" 190. Someone needs to be able to defend them, and ideally score over them.
Brase will be strong and is a hard worker, but not a great shot blocker, nor does he score well with his back to the basket. Miller is hardly a wide body. Brennan is not a low post player. Bramlage is only 6'7". From his own description, Will Gladson is a stretch 4.
I keep hoping MH will recruit a talented low post player to compete with the Harvard bigs.
