Since taking over as head basketball coach, Jerome Allen has been hot on the recruiting trail. But even after reeling in seven intriguing prospects, the glaring need for a legitimate big man remained.
The sight sent the Palestra crowd into stitches: a bald, portly referee performing a shimmy to signal a first-quarter travel call on the NBA’s “Chosen One,” LeBron James.
They say the Palestra gets so packed, the mob of fans filters all the way to the back corners of the stands.

The mid-September scene unfolded like the 50 before it, with Penn football players streaming onto Franklin Field as the team’s yearly introduction resonated throughout the stadium:
