Ian Hummer made a list of college basketball's "hidden heroes."

There are four schools whose men's and women's basketball teams had a perfect NCAA Graduation Success Rate as both won at least 20 games each of the last two seasons. You can explore the latest GSR data here.

The top of the Ivy League might not be what you think this season.

You'll be hearing a new primary voice of Princeton basketball on radio broadcasts this season.

A four year series between Georgetown and Kansas begins next season in Lawrence.

Here are Bill Carmody's quotes from Big 10 Media Day. The Wildcats are on the cusp once again.

Denver is CBS Sports' "sneaky pick" in the Pioneers' first season in the WAC.

Like many of us this election, Craig Robinson voted early.

Good luck to Derek Jones. Since it is quite difficult for me to attend many Tiger games, I appreciated very much the work of John Sadak. He and Noah Savage were great together, describing the action vividly and accurately. Although I have seen no official word, Sadak is rumored to be the 2013 radio voice of the Scranton-Wilkes Barre baseball franchise in the AAA Inernational League, an affilate of the New York Yankees. I hope this is a step toward a career in a major league market for Sadak.

When John Sadak picked up more and more ESPN3/Westwood One/TV gigs last season, it seemed clear to me he was headed to "the next level" sooner as compared to later.

Derek Jones has some big shoes to fill.

Well, I see that Big Apple Buckets and I are somewhat like minded, although he has Cornell second and Harvard third. I have it the other way around but the more I think about it BAB may be on to something. I think that the losses suffered by Harvard have an emotional impact that will be as important as the player losses. It was interesting that Tommy Amaker did not mention Curry or Casey once on media day, as if they were members of the disappeared in Argentina. Secondly, you never win in the Ivy League with freshmen or players who might as well be freshmen. Could the Crimson slip further than that? Maybe.

The Story

princetonbasketball.com was founded on April 28th, 1998 in an attempt to provide fans of the Princeton Tigers and Ivy League basketball with the best on-line source for up-to-date news and information. We have since expanded to launch a companion site, Georgetown Basketball News.

As these sites have continued to grow we have increased our coverage to include additional teams with Princeton connections - the Richmond Spiders, Denver Pioneers, Oregon State Beavers, Fairfield Stags and Mercer County Community College Vikings - plus former Tigers playing professional baseball and basketball all over the world. This site is not directly affiliated with the Friends of Princeton Basketball, Princeton University or the Princeton athletic department.
