Why is Savage doing this game? Can we have a Penn guy doing all of the Princeton games?

I endorse your request, penn nation. Savage is bad luck.
We're looking shaky at both ends of the floor.
Eddie Holland remains glued to the bench.

Although at least he just acknowledged the amazing Penn comeback at the Palestra during his freshman year.
Team does not look good, period.
But I think most of us knew that this is how the season was going to be.

Brown seems like the only guy who can move it around to get good looks for us. Otherwise, it is has been challenging to get a good shot.

It's just embarrassing. We look slower, weaker and a much worse shooting team that plays zero defense.
Other than that, it's a great game.

You forgot to add "predictable", P38.

It's so predictable that I thought about going-- I live 15 minutes away and said "naaah"

This looks like the worst of the Jerome Allen era. Waiting to see Bryce Washington enter the game.

The talent level is sorely lacking.

To give Donahue a break, who thought after last season he would have to play most of the Ivy season without Dingle, Martz and Slajchert? But then again, he was unable to win with those guys, even given a 17 point halftime lead on Princeton. That's what lost me, not the current disaster.

But as many of us were saying during last season, some of these guys should have been given more of an opportunity to play to prepare them for the future.

I think it's pretty obvious now that that thinking was incorrect. Their inability to play this year in favor of the freshmen show that they should have been playing in front of last year's stars? Last year was our year and the coaching let us down.
I'm still interested in seeing if we'll see Max Martz resurface next year as a grad transfer.

The kids play hard ...everything stems from completely inept coaching, Perperation, scouting, recruiting...all of it. It's beyond frustrating bc the potential for this program to become relevant is there ...it will NEVER happen under this staff. Never

Don't look know but Harvard has a younger team than Penn.
KP has them both at 6-8 for the league tied for the fourth spot.
Offensive ranking is getting worse. The defensive ranking is getting slightly better.
Anybody know when Clark is due back?

ESPN commentators said they expect Slajchert to be back at some point in February. It will probably take him a while to get back to game shape.
I noticed that when Spinoso sat, they either went to Gerhart, who was ineffective in limited minutes, or they went small. Johnnie Walter was a DNP.
