Super exciting games - some remarkable individual plays, great hustle, and, amazingly, most of thread discussion about Spallina. Not sure why folks so keen to point out he's not ready for the Tewarton, and not sure why Cuse fans so intensely feel the need to insist we all think he's better than he ...

Gee, thanks for lettin' me know what kind forum this is, fellas. It's also the Cuse thread that trolls are coming on to tear #22 apart like they have since before he ever stepped foot on a D1 field and have ever since at every given opportunity. Nice attempt at a soft back pedal though. Big game co...

Sorry to disappoint GRH, I'm not at all hurt by what any of you have to say about Spallina. I just write it all off as more aszwhole superstar keyboard experts shooting their mouths off for whatever kind of satisfaction they get out of tearing this guy apart. It's all good, boys, enjoy. Dude, learn...

The way I see it the D (Dwan included) hasn't been given enough credit all year. People are quick to criticize but that D has been good, the O wasn't paying them back by scoring when they kept 'em in games. This team is still two OT goals away from being undefeated (throw a missed open cage shot in...

After watching Syracuse, I can’t believe all the hype around Spallina. Guy can’t dodge. Nice finisher and reminds me of Nate Solomon. Their face off guy is legit. Crazy he’s been there so long and now is starting to dominate. He had 6 ots against Hopkins Top defender, what more were you looking for...

Frustrating . Every team can make excuses. Coulda, shoulda, woulda. Biggest reason why Cuse has lost to both Maryland and Army is a few lead players beyond Joey haven't performed to billing. Spallina was fine vs Maryland gettin six shots on goal but awful last night with only 1 sog and 4 turnovers....

Two tough losses for Coach Ross and the bulldogs...Had the chance to take down Harvard and couldn't execute down the stretch...QU just flat out beat them...Fun for Coach Poli to get a win over his alma mater..Those are three solid wins for a QU squad that has struggled as of late... Two winnable ga...

Cormier passes Doug Knight for all-time goals. Like Cormier, but mixed on this. That extra Covid year is going to change record books Yeah there has been serious record inflation with the advent of the shot clock and the extra Covid year coming in quick succession. Knight's record stood for years d...

Apparently it is being filmed from the moon

You are so right. Unwatchable for long periods

" One final thought, calling of game has gotten way too soft, question some of the penalties last night including the two minute non releasable on M defender that was not taken advantage of by Cuse. The call off of o/t goal by Leo was correct . Hope for a rematch in tourney" My post quest...

Love the way this team plays the game. Catch the ball, look for open teammate, throw to open teammate, ball just moves, moves, moves, no one holds on to the ball (unless Joey is behind the cage all alone). Hilt's catch and release is just really pretty to watch, so smooth easy and quick. Just ridic...

If the jersey has any value, it should go to a deserving upperclassman who has distinguished himself. Otherwise the shirt does not have the respect of the wearer's teammates let alone the rest of the lacrosse world. Recruits don't hunger to play for a team that chooses a high school celebrity for th...

Enjoyed watching Joel play as much as any player who has come through Cuse, an absolutely gorgeous lacrosse player. So smooth, so good, so steady, one of the absolute best LSMs ever. Played a huge role in gaining possession of the ball (stripped the player in possession) in regulation giving Cuse a...

Good summaries of where the team is at. That's good to hear that the team is targeting the goalie from LIU, he seems to have put up good numbers over the years. A big step up to the ACC but he seems like a player worth a look. I would be anxious to start a freshman goalie in front of next years gro...

One name that's gone unmentioned that absolutely shouldn't is Michael Leo out of St. Anthony's. He has been tearing it up so far this year. He dodges like a bull but has great shake and some box-style stick skills, and he has an absolute hammer of a shot from the left wing. I think he could start a...

Spallina is a lefty, correct? If so, I guess he plays behind with Hiltz on the left and Dordevic on the right instead of logging so much time on the left side. I think he’s a righty, but either way you’re right and I imagine he’ll be behind the goal. Dordevic not only moving to attack but having to...

Corruption is rampant in university - corporate relationships. Corruption is rampant in agent - player relationships. Corruption is rampant is college athletic departments, coaches, assistant coaches - athlete relationships. That does not make corruption or the obvious smell of it like in the SU, Ga...

Please, 06, you're the only poster who told us about the unathletic kids at Hopkins, the AD's indifference to Hopkins Lacrosse, wrong players on the field, etc, etc? Hopkins eating their young wasn't coined by me and can/could be seen on the Hopkins thread years ago. Yes, tens of thousands of loyal...

HopFan16 wrote Over the top like calling your current defensive coordinator too fat to be a role model to recruits? Or making fun of Asian-Americans? Who was the Cuse fan who referred to Scanlan's accuser, a player on the women's team, as "little girl"? That was all you, right? Or do I ha...

danowski's over the hill. or he's unlucky and petro is over the hill? :lol: I think Petro is over the unlucky hill. Yeah, that's it. Oh...until Petro makes the Final Four. Then Doc will come on and explain how Petro "forgot to innovate" at Hopkins for the last freaking five years, and fou...
