In response to SRP
Coach K was so complimentary regarding Yale's performance post-game. Charles Barkley stated prior to the Baylor game that Yale would get killed and he completely changed his tune after today's game. Down by 27 pts to a very close and competitive game over the last 10 minutes. The Ivy League got a lot of good press this week that should help the League in the future as to seeding of teams.
Yale did a great job representing the Ivy League. They had a legitimate chance to get to the sweet 16. Unfortunately, Duke was unconscious in the first half and Yale, without Montague, could not hit 3 pointers.
Coach Jones really helped putting Yale on the map and I would not be the least bit surprised that their tournament play will help them on the recruiting front. Although they will lose a lot next year, it would not be surprised if they are playing in the inaugural Ivy League tournament as Mason will probably get even better. Coach K raved about him.
