    In response to Columbia 37P6

In some regards, I agree with you. I actually think Columbia can finish 4th without playing much better than they have so far — the Lions aren’t that far behind Princeton and Brown, who currently are the teams that would be 4th or 5th. The Pomeroy ranks aren’t all that different from where Princeton and Cornell were last year, and Cornell pulled it off.

The reason I view Bryant as important is b/c it gives more information as to what Columbia is — if they really are a 250ish pomeroy team, they’ll be competitive in the league. However, the loss to Youngstown State combined with no victories raises the possibility that the Lions are worse than their rank. Beating Bryant handily would at least provide some indication that the pomeroy number is accurate (or even low).

On the rotation, does it really matter who starts? Agreed that Adlesh is one of your top 3 guards. But it seems obvious that Engles views it that way too. Is whether his minutes come at the very start a difference maker?
