News and Notes: Tuesday Edition

Below, news and notes for Tuesday...

  • Cornell's Shonn Miller now has accumulated three Ivy League Rookie of the Week Awards in the first three weeks of the season. For some perspective, Cornell's Chris Wroblewski was the Ivy League Rookie of the Year in 2009, but only won the weekly award twice in his freshman season.

  • Cornell RPI Watch: The RPI (Rating Percentage Index) is a measure of strength of schedule and how a team does against that schedule. It does not consider the margin of victory, but only whether or not a team won and where the game was played (home/away/neutral court). The formula is 25% team winning percentage (WP), 50% opponents' average winning percentage (OWP), and 25% opponents' opponents' average winning percentage (OOWP). (See: CollegeRPI.com for a further explanation of the formula.) The RPI may be the most influential factor in NCAA Tournament seeding. Cornell's RPI rank as of November 29 is No. 312 out of 344 total Division I teams. While neither the Ken Pomeroy or Jeff Sagarin rankings are used by the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee, the KenPom.com site ranks Cornell No. 175 in the nation, while the USA Today Sagarin rankings have Cornell at No. 247. Both sites are predominantly used by fans and the media.
