Every level of Harvard’s defense lost at least one starter to graduation, but talent and experience make up for the departures, especially in the secondary. The biggest question mark lies on the defensive line, where the Crimson is without Mike Berg ’07 as well as brothers Brenton and Desmond Bryant, who were forced to take the year off for academic reasons.

It's a helluva-story ball. It's a conversation-starter ball. But it's not the ball. If you're going to spend gobs of money, why not wait until...
