No worries Mike. I know BRF is, uh, a bit polarizing.
What I like about this class for Cornell is that all three guys could/should plug holes eventually, if not immediatley. Bunce is a large bodied post-player with a nice offensive game -- a clear need. Cressler is a shooter and the Big Red's only reliable shooters graduate this year. And Harmon is a Rivals two-star PF, the first one Cornell has landed since I don't know when. Was Kenny Bantum a name recruit?
I won't make any predictions that one of these guys will win ROY or how many all-Ivy selections they will rack up. I'm happy to let it all play out. I do think they represent a continued talent infusion that Cornell needed to compete.

What I loved most, just as a basketball fan, was Foote's improvement each year. I'm not sure I can remember any player making as big an improvement year to year to year.
Foote's improvement continues, as he is doing fairly well in the D-league. He really has come a long way from getting zero minutes for Bona.
Chemerinski's improvement has been staggering to me, maybe even more so than Jeff. As a freshman, I would have bet you that Eitan would never get more than mop-up duty. He's turned himself into a useful offensive player. He's limited (8.2 fouls per 40 minutes!), but I never expected to see his current level of production.
