Daily Tweet and Jerome Allen profiled

First, a random tweet from Sports Illustrated Senior NFL writer Peter King:

@SI_PeterKing: On the Acela heading north from Balt. Time to write for a week. Just passed Franklin Field/Philly. Wish I could have seen Eagles play there.

Or he could come and see a championship team play there now.... (P.S. Follow DP Sports @DailyPennSports)

Anyway, moving on, there's a nice spot in Fox's Jeff Goodman's blog today about Jerome Allen and his goal of resuscitating the basketball program. Goodman focuses on the discord between how good the team was when Allen played in the early 90s to the current state. You should obviously read the whole thing, but some good quotes from Jerome:

"We try to use history to get guys to believe, but kids these days don’t remember what happened five years ago. What people don’t know is that Penn is No. 10 in all-time wins in NCAA history – ahead of Indiana, Arizona and Louisville.
Kids would think you were lying if you told them that"

"It’s going to take a minute,” Allen said. ``We’re not trying to go from A to Z overnight. We’re just trying to get to Z and the only way is to get to B first"
