Re: Tewaaraton Award 2024
I don’t think Entrnmann deserves to be in the discussion, but it seems pretty clear the media wants him involved. Interestingly, the only unanimous 1st Media All-American isn't a finalist. But a "first goalie" to win the award is a good angle. Sorta like when Megan Taylor won it on the wo...

Do you think that a team can do it in the shot clock era?

So no Duffy to JHU?
That's what I get from lurking on the UNC thread.

Re: Transfer Portal 2025
At some point colleges offering players NIL $$ are going to want to see some "return" on their "investment". What happens if the kid flames out or gets injured. Do any of us expect the schools involved to not call time out? There is talk that Universities will be able to directl...

ND had some success containing O'Neill by putting a lefty on him.keno in reno wrote: ↑Sun May 12, 2024 10:17 am Curious if Ajax takes O'Neill or Zawada. I assume he is used to negate Zawada's speed, then hope some combination of strength and slides can contain the MVP of the world.

Re: Maryland 2024
The Jays briefly looked better than UMich, but then they found the script.
All to ensure that Cornell doesn't get a bid.

Re: Is anyone else sick and tired of the Kavanaghs?
Def sick of them. But honestly it’s more the way Carc and others cover them / talk about them. Not their fault. Unfort it looks like it will get worse from here over the next three weeks. Agree. This reminds me of the discussion of #22 on the Syracuse thread. I get that announcers feel the need to ...

Re: 2024 Bracketology
Yes, four losses, but all to top-4 Power-ranked teams.
It's the trend and the eye test that is more concerning, and I don't think the committee uses those any more than they use Power Rankings.
P.S. Top 7 losses according to Massey.

Re: Coaching Carousel 2024
Of course, Brown is an attractive destination, but it has to play in a conference with HPY (arguably the three most attractive destinations in the country) and Cornell with its legendary lax history.
And following Lars has to be a tough act.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2024
It is because the power rankings incorporate margin of victory, and when you thrash a good team like Cornell, it counts heavily, while a bunch of one-goal wins do not count as heavily. And one of JHU's one-goal losses was to Navy, and the model would have predicted a large margin for the Jays, hence...

Re: Johns Hopkins 2024
In fairness, by this time of year, I believe the Power Rankings are the best measure of the full body of work, and they show Syracuse ahead of JHU.
Each has conference tournaments to worry about first.

Re: Be better Merrimack
Which is why coaches should discourage trash-talking and referees should discourage chippiness. They can escalate into cheap shots and fighting. Better to put a lid on it early.

I have written before on other forums, but I know for a fact that at one of the highly competitive schools (not JHU, and certainly not an Ivy) all seven figures gets you is a good second look at a qualified applicant (25-75th percentile), not a guarantee.

Re: UVA @ Syracuse Sat. 4/20 2 pm
I have heard that it is tough for opposing goalies to pick up the ball in the Dome. But wow. Two weeks in a row. Maybe not a single "he really should have had that one" but you want to steal one every once in a while.
