In response to mrjames
I am less rosy on Harvard's prospects - not to say they won't be good, but there's a real world of difference between having the biggest stone-cold killer there to clean up your messes (poor, poor Columbia) and not having him. (EDIT: Whoo man, I forgot Aiken didn't play in 19-20. They say the mind is the first thing to go... Nonetheless all the non-Kirkwood production is gone, and the rim protection too. Defense will be tougher than usual but that's something Amaker usually does well - wonder how it'll go without a Zena/Lewis this time.) Also, I'll believe that Forbes will be good when I see it, because what I recall from 2019-20 was, uh, not that.
Haven't the foggiest what to think of everybody generally with a year off, though I would wager Yale returns the highest-value player in Swain. Losing Atkinson is a toughie, to put it mildly, but the younger bigs are talented enough that they'll be fine. Sneaky big loss for Yale is Monroe - good floor generals who can make absolutely clean blocks on Ivy PoY winners (  ) don't just appear out of thin air.
I think Penn benefits the most from the chaos year-off, since losing the player who made the team go in every aspect of the game wasn't going to be easy anyway.
Gun to my head, I say Y/H/Pe/Pr/B/D/Cor/Col but I wouldn't wager one red cent on it.
