? Ten years ago University President Richard Levin laid out his goals for advancing Yale over the next decade. Investing in the sciences was among them ? and the gleaming new Daniel L.

Well his team is not winning right now so maybe he needs to rethink that philosophy. Tigers need their own ?Scoop?What they need is an ?Al Oliver? to come in and take the bull by the horn. The atmosphere has to be changed so that they can start winning and winning can create better chemistry. After being in a club house with both good and bad chemistry and I can tell you good chemistry along with talent will take you a long way.
