Re: Harvard Crimson 2016-2017
Some leftover thoughts from last night's game.
1. Teddy's comments in the Boston Globe this morning indicated that he felt the team simply wasn't prepared for the grind of a playoff series having had a week off. He also took a partial shot at himself for not doing a better coaching job. Most of what he said I've already alluded to in a prior post. His comments toward the end of the article were a bit strange in that he expressed concern about the team getting back to playing its game. Maybe the writer took the comments out of context but a coach can't be openly worrying about his team's ability to focus and play its game at this stage of the season
2. Good crowd last night - for once it seemed like there were more Harvard fans than opposition fans. The band showed up which was nice. Hope they come tonight. Makes for a better atmosphere.
3. Clarkson beating Cornell was a surprise but it looks like the other teams will prevail going forward. Casey Jones is a former Cornell player so I imagine it would give him extra pleasure in beating his alma mater. I think that series will go three.
