Villanova 2025

[gymman1031]

The Wildcats, participants in the Big East Lacrosse Tournament every year since it started, were closer than ever before in 2024 to winning that tournament for the first time and being an AQ for the postseason. Might the sting of the OT loss to the Hoyas make them work even harder in the offseason and result in them finally getting the above done in 2025?

Look at the 8 teams left

Denver
Cuse
UVA
Hop
Maryland
Duke
ND
Gtown

They all commit more $$ to lax than nova.

Absolutely, they do! Due to all of the potential Nova Lax has, what a shame!!

Now is the time for coach Corrado to sit down and explain to Father Peter & AD Mark Jackson that his mens lacrosse team is consistently in the top 25 each spring & they beat Denver only 2 weeks ago ( who is now playing in the final four) Mike needs scholarships 11 & 12 along with an increase in his roster size to finally compete for a final four appearance and possibly a Natty Championship

Villanova is about 30th in DI in lacrosse spending.
Its up to Alum and dollar supporters to determine whether that's enough or more is needed.

But, comparing Villanova to Syracuse, Duke - those two spend way more than anyone on lacrosse.

The best thing Villanova can do is eliminate their Football program. That is the biggest money suck with absolutely zero return. Nobody goes to the games and nobody cares except for maybe the parents of the players. Nova has a chance to become a top lacrosse program with a greater effort and $ from the administration. But as they stand now, they’re just another “also ran” team in search of their first NCAA victory. My $.02

After a while, it becomes little more than an arms race - especially with these ACC teams.

Syracuse spends well over $4 million a year on lacrosse.

And with NIL - well, little wonder ACCs et al get all the top 10-15 year after year.

I see many posts telling the Villanova administration what they should allocate their money. When I was at Penn, Villanova was known for Bball and Track and Field. What happened to the Track teams?
