In response to Rob
Rob, if you asked me 2 weeks ago, I would have agreed with you unquestionably. However, in light of the scathing criticism of Scott emanating from the Princeton supporters after a couple of losses, when presumably Scott is coaching the same way he was a few weeks ago (btw, that was the point of my quoting your 12/30 post), I think a lot of it has to do with losing. You don't see nearly as much criticism of Dunphy when Penn wins the league.
I think since Princeton fans fully expected to win the league this year, there is a degree of shock at the 2 early losses that is causing people to lash out at the coach.
By the way, this is not meant to comment either way on Scott's relationship with his players.
