- Ivy Hoops Online reviews the weekend and writes, "Cornell and Columbia still have small chances of earning a postseason bid... Cornell- The Big Red had all the momentum coming into this weekend, sitting alone in 3rd place with a chance to create havoc in the Ivy race. All they had to do was handle a depleted Penn squad at home to set up a huge game with Princeton on Saturday with actual title implications for both sides. Instead, Tony Hicks earned his stripes in Ithaca, torching Bill Courtney’s defense for 29 points including 5-6 from three, as the Quakers came from behind to shock Newman Nation, 79-71. The next night, Princeton raced out to a massive first half lead and Cornell was never able to claw all the way back. Johnathan Gray did not suit up for the Big Red in either game this weekend for undisclosed reasons. The sweep sends the Big Red back into the middle clump of the league where teams 3 through 6 are separated by one game."
- The Yale Daily News writes, "The Bulldogs now sit tied for third place in the Ivy League with Cornell, four games behind frontrunner Harvard and two and a half games behind second-place Princeton. The Elis would need to win out and the Crimson would have to lose their remaining contests for Yale to take the Ivy banner... The men’s basketball team will conclude its season with two games on the road next weekend, traveling to face Columbia (11–13, 3–7) on Friday before squaring off against Cornell (13–14, 5–5) on Saturday."
- The Brown Daily Herald writes, "Bruno will travel to Cornell (13-14, 5-5) Friday and Columbia (11-13, 3-7) Saturday in a repeat of last weekend’s home games. Bruno was victorious against the Lions but failed to complete a comeback against the Big Red."
- The University Daily Kansan writes, "TCU scored the fewest points in a single half a Big 12 team has allowed in a half in 15 years. It’s also the fewest points Kansas has allowed in a half since holding Cornell to nine points in the second half on Jan. 2, 1996."
- Duke Basketball Report writes, "while it’s no surprise that BC’s Steve Donahue relies heavily on threes as a part of his offense, as he did at Cornell, few might guess the same is true to a significant degree for Virginia’s Tony Bennett, known as a shooter in college and the NBA."
- The Sith Sens mentions a memorable video which members of the Cornell Basketball team took part in.

- 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 February 25 is No. 217 out of 344 total Division I teams. While neither the Ken Pomeroy or the Sagarin Rankings (USA Today) are used by the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee, the KenPom.com site ranks Cornell No. 237 in the nation, while the Sagarin Rankings (USA Today) have Cornell at No. 223 Both sites are predominantly used by fans and the media.
