I'm watching Army vs Airforce, and they are giving it to AF. Army looks strong and running an up tempo offense.

I think Army is the PL's biggest surprise thus far. They list all five starters but don't appear to be a lot worse. They have two good frosh and a better coach.

The Lehigh board is talking about their school's plans to add 1,000 undergrads and 500-800 graduate students. Also, they indicated that Lafayette is looking to add 500 undergrads.
Does Bucknell have any plans to grow in the 10-20% range?

I have heard that Bucknell plans to gradually grow to 4000, but have not seen that officially.

Officially, Bucknell is planning to add 200 students over the next 5-8 years. Most of those will be in the College of Management.
From Bravman's report on the spring Trustee meeting: "After much deliberation, the Board approved an incremental, 200-student increase in undergraduate enrollment. We expect the increase to be fully realized in five to eight years."

There's a film being made about the 1947 Holy Cross championship team:

I daresay, at the time, the 1954 NIT was the bigger deal of the two. The NIT was the major postseason tournament, and most were not even aware of the NCAA tourney. MSG was the Mecca of college hoops, and hosted the complete NIT tourney.

As many of you know, The coach who led HC to the NCAA title was Doggie Julian, Bucknell Class of 1923. He was a 3-sport star as a Bison and an All-American in football. After coaching HC, he also coached the Celtics and then Dartmouth.

Watching Columbia at Navy. Navy looks much improved. The Kiernan kid is really good. He's their version of Zach Thomas.

It's hard to even evaluate Kiernan's level,of improvement, as he played only five minutes last year. Don't think there was any injury, just not good enough to make their top 12. That's one advantage of being able to bring in as many as 8 recruits in a year, and having a JV to,give them playing time. You never know who will develop. Think,Patrick King.

Boston is tied 29-29 at Syracuse with 4:29 to go in the first half. The game is on the YES network for those who might be interested.

Not sure about Navy. Army's JV used to play various prep schools and juco's.

Boston has a lot of talent, although they have had a lot of behavioral issues with Fanning.

Kempton is a beast. I wonder if he has what it takes to make it in the NBA.
