In response to JadwinGeorge
Based on y-t-d team stats on Ivy Sports, the Tigers are primarily in the bottom half of most statistical categories other than FT shooting and turnovers. In relative terms to Yale, Brown, Harvard and Penn, it is not very impressive. One encouraging stat is that Yale (5), Brown (4) and the Tigers (3) are on winning streaks but as we know that can change quickly if Princeton does not perform better.
It is somewhat remarkable that they are 8-5 with some of the clunkers but they have won close games this year primarily against not so great of teams. One plus is that three players can create their own shots at game's end -- one only has to look at Cannady's floater with less than a minute to go in OT.
Mitch stated that Princeton is a different team prior to going to ASU but let's see if that statement is backed by reality. He also stated that they need to be a different, and better team, by IvyMadness time if they are going to be successful.
Time will tell.
