In response to Penndemonium
I have checked the KP O and D ratings for Penn and Yale, All commers and Ivy only, since Steves's arrival. Both programs play better d in the ivies lowing the KP efficiency score, Penn by 2.4 and Yale by 2.9.
On offense Penn's score worsens by 4.4 while Yale's score improves by 2.4, a net difference of 6.8. That is significant evidence that better scouting by Yale solves Penn's offense while it doesn't at Yale. Could be talent of coaching. Either way it is a indictment of the Penn program.
Watching the games I seems to me the Ivies take away Penn's threes without Penn making them pay by going to the hoop. And Penn is unable to take away Yale's approach. Coaching and talent again.
