Next Programs To Win National Titles For The First Time?

[norcalhop]

Yeah, and how many titles did that buy the Jays? Who started with every advantage of being a storied program with a long history of success, which is the only reason they have alums willing to do this in the first place?

How many players did they buy exactly? They got Ierlan (not through buying), but I don't see multiple Sowers on the roster. This building was in 2011 before the NIL period.

I've yet to see alums actually pony up cash for multiple star players.

And to answer the question, Harvard is my vote for next championship if they ever get their act together. If Yale could do it, the Crimson certainly can.

The only thing preventing it is that (and I'm sorry to have to be the one to let everybody here know) nobody who matters cares about lacrosse.

So nobody with $13M to toss around is going to blow it on enhancing a sport that will only lead to questions from hot women at cocktail parties of "isn't that a city in Wisconsin?"

Yeah, hot.

But absolutely no meat on the old bones.

Walking cadavers.

Hobart, 2028

Jr will be as of now HS class of 31, so figure it’s more like 33 for that. TBD if I’ll be alive then.

Definitively not true.

Expecting it out of Harvard is like the RE developers who keep going into revitalize the Poconos, Catskills and Hartford and get blown up every time.

If the championship were “my loving” then Harvard should expect this:

Dont be crazy, he meant one NC.

And at least one major donor who cares about lacrosse.

Jon Torpey leads Brown State to their first D1 Championship!!

Ok and in this string I am missing the connection.

[DocBarrister]

Yep! Another year, another post from me with this question. However, while I don't want to "count my chickens before they are hatched", I like to think that Brown, now that Jon Torpey is their man, will be higher on the list in this discussion. What a great hire!

Johns Hopkins!

Did you read "First Time" in the thread title?

Did you see the “winking” emoji?

The fact that Hopkins has been in the relative wilderness for a while speaks to the difficulty less established programs will have challenging the big guns in the ACC plus Maryland in the coming decade.

I like Penn State as the school most likely to put the pieces together. Tambroni has put multiple good teams together and had a real shot in 2019. Playing in the B1G should provide athletic department support for a program to compete.** Same rationale applies to Michigan, but I like Tambroni more as a coach.

**However, if NIL morphs into collective bargaining, we could see a world where football television money is funneled to the players, so who knows how that would affect other programs.

I like Tambroni better as a coach. Michigan should be more appealing to recruits. Perhaps Conry gets there, but Michigan is the most obvious sleeping giant in lacrosse.

Well our daughter did attend. But I was referring to an alum willing and able to spend generously to support the program.

Listen you can’t be talking like that and not expect your specific audience here to respond any other way than “need pics”. You should know better!
