1) In a year in which four of the Big 5 schools -- sorry Penn -- could legitimately claim to have the Big 5 Player of the Year, Dick Jerardi has made up his mind. So who does he pick out of Dionte Christmas, Daunte Cunningham, Rodney Green, Ahmad Nivins or Scottie Reynolds? Here's a hint: Jerardi's choice averages more points, rebounds, blocks and has a better FG and FT percent than any of other player.
2) Mark DeRosa, who played baseball at Penn from 1994-96, is now a member of Team USA in the World Baseball Classic. The headline might be a little off -- although he's playing against the World now, he obviously never played against Penn -- but it's actually a good article. Well worth the read.
3) Remember that Bank of America promotion I mentioned yesterday? Well it's now officially "The Penn Visa issued by Bank of America Fan of the Game." Though yet again the headline is off, as the word "fan" is omitted. So enter to be the credit card of the game!
