Now that basketball season is in full swing these notes have taken a decidedly more Big 5 flavor than an Ivy League feel. But that probably will change once we head into Ivy season.
1) Sports Illustrated profiles "slick coach" Jay Wright of Villanova, which reminds me of the rollout my freshman year during the Penn-Villanova game: "Your suit might be worth $1,000 bucks, but you're still coaching a bunch of schmucks." Perhaps a little classless, but the profile certainly is not.
2) One commenter at Fan Nation claims Philadelphia is the best basketball town in the nation.
3) Philly Hoops Insider finally has a Penn-centered post, this one on Zack Rosen. However, we've still yet to hear from Glen Miller.
4) The Mid Majority blogger Kyle Whelliston was asked who he favors in the Ivy League, and he was quite pro-Cornell. (via The Cornell Basketball Blog.)

re #3. What is Miller going to say? "Hi, this is Glen. I look confused. My team looks confused, and my assistants are confused. Maybe I should have stayed at Brown. That way I woudn't have weekly status reports to write for Bilsky. Its hard to do my job with him breathing down my neck."
