"We're going to focus on doing the
little things extremely well,"
[Franklin] said, "and by doing that,

ing those very words.

Could Penn State hoops have made
the NCAA tournament this year?
Yes — I think the Nittany Lions
would have been a dangerous tour-
nament bubble team, at the very
least, if it weren't for a few key roster
changes that most notably saw the
program lose Jermaine Marshall to
Arizona State, where the graduate
student guard scored 15.1 points per
game on his way to an NCAA tour-
nament appearance with the Sun
Devils. BOBBY CHEN ONWARD STATE
There is no walking on the field,
ever. I told [players] the first day, "If
you don't know where you're sup-
posed to go or what you're doing
when the horn blows, then sprint in
a circle until you figure it out."

HE'S AIMING TO SET IN PRACTICE
We are making progress and we're
all in it TOGETHER. Every fan,
alum, former player needs to help
us build this program back where
it belongs! JAMES FRANKLIN
You know you wake up early
