Princeton +100
Yale +200
Cornell +350
Brown +2000
Man, laying a 20-spot on Brown is tempting, although I do think Princeton will win.

I think Yale and Cornell have some value. Princeton with implicit 50% odds to win the whole thing seems slightly high to me - a championship game neutral site rematch with either Yale or Cornell strikes me as itself a roughly 50/50 game, and I think Brown has a puncher's chance to win the opener.

Cornell strikes me as the best value.
Call the Yale game a coin flip, and
figure Cornell' depth makes them the
best back-to-back team if they can win Saturday.
Hoping the Tigers can continue to gut it out.

At these odds, the smart play knowing what we know is to take the "field" and bet everyone but PU.

If you had Brown at 20-1, you're licking your chops right now.

I leaned hard on the Princeton line at 10+
Smaller on brown weekend double which I regret
The hedge fund biz is tough in a rising tide.
Take it where Vegas hands you the odds
if brown wins the $s go to the bulldog collective which will launch soon

So far, I think 18 #1 seeds have fallen around the country. Which is inconsequential for the SEC and Big Ten, but a real bummer for the one-bid champions. At least the Ivy still has two teams alive that might win a game in the NCAA tournament.

Draft kings did not book the team odds, so I had to settle for betting Brown and the over and then taking PU in game when I got them plus 13. Lost some of that on Cornell though.
Brown is plus 8 plus 275 today. I’ll taste that but I like the over better at 135.

Brown is playing very well but they would be fortunate to escape a 16 seed.

Or an all expense paid trip to Dayton. I doubt they win outright today. Yale will not let them tear it up inside like PU did. The way they are shooting and moving the ball offensively, I can see them covering the 8 though.

I lost $100k today of upside.
But it feels good. Now I am going to get drunk at the Cherokee casino and catch a trout later

The shoes are starting to drop....sad to see Perkins go. Despite the fact that he went to Landon...Good player and seemingly good kid.
I hope wolf takes it to Broome but not much upside left as Yale deals w auburn and the portal season heats up.
What a shame

In response to james
That's one view. Other possible interpretations:
1) This is a Penn-specific problem, either for internal reasons or because Penn has been poor lately.
2) This is a bad-team specific problem, and players on top Ivy teams are more likely to stay.
(Sorry Penn folks, I don't mean for you to catch strays here, but, well...)
I know for a fact that Kino Lilly had tons of NIL suitors this past offseason. He chose to stay at Brown. I don't think we need to be quite so quick to put on the sackcloth and ashes here.

I do think it is nuanced.
But think it's more about the straight quid offers.
The tampering I can confirm is nauseating and widespread but inquiries and "strong butt" offers are admittedly not the same thing.
