Harvard basketball coach Tom Sanders doesn't have this job. This is college hoop, The Ivy League, and the pro draft--not Pencey Prep, the YMCA and The Most Improved Camper Award. But for some strange reason I didn't feel like I was watching a competitive college basketball team out there last night in Harvard's 82-61 loss to Penn.
