Not very well if you look at RPI.  https://www.teamrankings.com/ncaa-basket...ng-by-team

Yale and Harvard are clearly better than Stanford at MBB but according to RPI, Princeton and Brown as well. Non-Ivy Colgate also tops us.

I heard that Muir justifies our struggles in MBB by saying how few recruits we have access to and how MBB lacks the facilities and $ that other programs have.  That argument doesn't hold water if you look at the success of the Ivies in MBB.

It would be interesting to know what academic requirements the Ivies hold basketball recruits to. About the same, harder, or easier than Stanford?
