Edo Lawrence and Brian Fabrizius are no longer on the PU roster. Does anyone know where they went?
Can't find any intel anywhere...

Edo was injured earlier this season and Brian wasn't getting any court time with little future prospects (although in warmups he seemed to have a nice 3 point shot). I suspect that they dropped from the team. Imagine them on Prospect Street!

Probably, but I still think it's weird that they just vanished? Why don't they transfer?

The last Princeton player that I can remember who transferred was about five years ago. He was, by his own admission, way over his head, academically. Who, in his right mind, is going to transfer from Princeton, just because of basketball? I remember only two. Dominic Michel (?) transferred to Yale after his freshman year ( not a huge drop) ;). Tom McGloghlin transferred to William and Mary, but transferred back to Princeton a year later. Oh, and I nearly forgot. Spencer Gloger. He, too, came back. I think that the U and the coaches make it clear to prospects that if you are applying, the degree should take precedence over the sport.

With all due respect, both have more height than game (much less than the three transfers mentioned). Its really rare that a "project" ends up panning out. Howie Levy may be the last in that vein.

Maybe they'll end up as central bankers. Paul Volcker is really tall, and a 6/10" guy I went to grad school with is high up at the Fed now. Clearly, height is important for success in the monetary policy game--perhaps allowing you to see farther or to intimidate others.

Janet Yellen is not very tall, she didn't play basketball at Brown.

Maybe so, but I hear her crossover dribble is a real ankle breaker.

The implications of this observation are more troubling than I had realized. Overseeing Fed policy
