Your last sentence - dead on - defense comes first. Last year's team experienced an awakening after the St. Joe's team. This year's team, younger, may not happen but it is early. The experience of watching how well, gritty and tough last year's played is a testament to the coaches and players including Weisz, Cook and Miller.
Amazingly, the IL as a whole has not progressed this year. There are brief moments but it has been an unimpressive start. Amazingly, Yale seems to be digging in its' heels which is a testament to Coach Jones and Oni seems to be stepping up - another 2 star recruit. Cornell, Brown, sometimes Penn and Columbia show flashes and Harvard will probably gets it act together but so far, the League as a whole, certainly including Princeton, is unimpressive. The only bright spot for the Tigers may be the level of play of league teams in qualifying to play in March at the Palestra -- sad but true?
