Like everyone else on this board, I'm encouraged. I was one saying we needed big contributions from freshmen to be good. I thought tonight Princeton was very good, while getting nothing from freshmen. Amir Bell looked better than I've ever seen him, likewise Myles Stephens. Cannady good as usual.
I thought the blown goal tending call was pivotal - would've been 1 pt deficit, ensuing Butler score made it 5 pts, and I believe the lead only widened from there in the first half. In the second half the Morales turnover with about 5 min to go, down 5, poised to make it a one possession game, was absolute killer. The 3 pt play leading directly from the crazy pass made it 8 down.
Still you have to believe that Princeton will get much, much more from the freshmen class - they all looked the part. Obviously Henderson is a believer. By the time they get through this tough non-conference I think they'll be ready to be very significant contributors. And then there's Gladson.
All in all, plenty of reasons to be excited about the season. Beat st Joe's.
