Penn State listed an assistant job. Wondering if Amy Altig has left to take one of this head coaching vacancies?

Strong hire by University of Delaware - Amy Altig. Hopefully she can bring the program back to the high level it was at many years ago.

Still no word on Rutgers. Rumor is that the salary they are offering is well below the other Big10 programs. Hope they get this hire done right and quickly - NJ and the surrounding states from which Rutgers could/should draw from are ripe recruiting areas, and the longer Rutgers waits to make a hire the more they will fall behind in recruiting.

Amy Bokker to Ohio State. That seems like an unexpected move.

Bokker is a very good coach, and might be the one who can build the program The OSU deserves. I think recruiting to Stanford was harder than at some other schools given the academics requirements and distance from the traditional lacrosse areas. Ohio State puts her in the league with Maryland, Penn State, Northwestern and JHU. It's a good move for her.

Don’t forget the new kids on the block in the aforementioned conference 😉

Curious as to how many of her recruits, current players and assit coaches will follow her to OSU. I am sure variables like who Stanford's next coach is, academic attachments, scholarship integrity and weather are all factors.

Interesting...and a bit surprising.

Post by Turtles Lax »

This bit of information might have helped Amy Bokker make her decision to leave Stanford. Alexis Venechanos made $251,632 in salary and benefits for the ‘17-‘18 school year. :o

Note: This was posted in an expo.cleveland post that appeared in TL’s fb feed this morning. It detailed the salary and benefits of all STATE of Ohio coaches who made $250,000 or more.

Peace, out.

Assuming kids chose Stanford for more than just athletics, I can't imagine any current players or recruits would jump ship to go to Ohio State.

know...although why pure speculation...program has plateaued and getting caught/passed by younger programs in region (SC, CO, Denver - I believe Ducks would have been on this list had Dowd stuck around). Also - seems like every week some non-rev sport at Stan wins a natty or comes close - high expectations. Don't pretend to know if she is good Xs and Os - but she can be hard to play for over time - kids get worn down - not a lot of joy in that clubhouse (full disclosure - DD played there - heavy play time/starter all 4 years)

Interesting bit of half-info...care to say where you got that or present facts to back that up? Amy was 151-59 in 11 years at Stanford. They made 8 NCAA tournament appearances and won 6 Conference Titles(MPSF and Pac-12).
Now having said that unless you just don't like success, why would anyone "force out" that?

Your daughter played there and started all 4 years? Sounds like a tough gig! And she got a degree from Stanford despite being worn down by this "Cruella DeVille" of a coach. Sounds like your daughter's life is off to a really rough start. :roll: Good luck to her.
FYI...Bokker is a VERY good coach and knows the game. BTW...why is it that eyes are raised when there is not a lot of joy on a winning team of female athletes? Are those same concerns raised when it's a Guy's team? Just curious. :?:
