head coach of current top 25 team.
Well there goes Mike. So now I say Jana
Not sure what top 25 teams being referred to, but based on preseason rankings:
1. Northwestern - No Way
2. Boston College - There were rumors of her moving on last year but can't see it being to FSU
3. North Carolina - No Way
4. Denver - Not out of the question but highly doubtful
5. Syracuse - No Way
6. Maryland - No Way
7. Notre Dame - Unlikely
8. James Madison - Highly Unlikely
9. Loyola - No Way
10. Stony Brook - Highly Unlikely
11. Johns Hopkins - No Way
12. Florida - Doubt she would want to start over at a new program at her age
13. Army - Possibility but doubtful
14. Penn State - See Florida
15. Penn - No way
16. USC - Has inquired on jobs back east in the past
17. Michigan - Highly Unlikely
18. UMass - Agree Jana is a possibility
19. Princeton - No Way
20. Virginia - No Way
Also considered (alphabetical order):
Clemson - No Way
Duke - See Florida and PSU response
Navy - See Florida and PSU and Duke response
UConn - Katie a possibility too
Don't think it's any of the legacy coaches. Legacy meaning a coach who's been in the same program for 10+ years. It' really difficult to pry them away from their current schools for a variety of reasons. It's Tumolo
There is little or no possibility that this stays under wraps until May. The lacrosse community is WAY too small; it's a matter of time until it's common knowledge.

Sorry, Tumolo is not leaving for FSU. I have NO inside knowledge but if she didn't take OSU or UVA, there is NO chance she's taking FSU where the admin support is suspect to begin with.

I would imagine some of her commits. But depending on what school she is from, some may not go. It supposedly is a top 20 school.
I wonder how it works recommitting anyway. I know Chepenik did it with Oregon and she had to change again because of scholarship $ from Clemson. So here’s a question.
Your daughter is verbally committed to a school and decides to decommit. Then what? I guess you Email all the coaches again and say hey I’m available, it didn’t work out for X reason. I would think all of the money for the 2025s would have been spent already unless it is a new team like FSU. Looks like if it isn’t a new school you would be in a similar issue as Chepenik going somewhere in a 1 yr scholarship to renegotiate.
Does anyone know the process of this and how hard would it be for a kid to decommit her Senior high school year and catch on with a team?

Usually kids don’t decommit until they have something new lined up to replace it - unless they really don’t want to go to the original school, whether they find a new option or not. Usually some back door conversations with the club coach and college coach leads to more, then they decommit and commit to the other school.

If you haven't signed a LOI, you can leave right away.
Even if you have, most schools will release you if the coach leaves. (The new coach will want scholarship $$ freed up to bring in his/her own recruits).

Just learned through the grapevine that FSU just decided on a coach.
Nothing will be officially announced until the new coach's current season is done in May, but I imagine it will leak before then. All I will say is impressive hire, all things considered. Not a wow coach, but a current top 25 coach with a decent track record.
Alright we’ve been patient enough. I’m ready for LaxDadMax to come back and spill the beans or at least give us another clue.

So you are saying Florida State has hired a coach, but this coach is coaching the entire upcoming season at their current school? And this coach expects their current players to not find out? And they will continue recruiting for their current school despite the fact they won't be back?
Color me skeptical. Sounds like typical lax gossip.

I agree. It sounds like someone is just stirring the pot. It would definitely be strange for that coach to think news like that would be able to be kept tight for a whole season.

Only way it’s plausible is if the new head coach is currently an assistant coach somewhere. I could maybe see that. But there isn’t an athletic Director in the country that would allow their current division one head coach to have an agreement in place to coach somewhere else next year, and still be the head coach of their division one program this entire year.

Most schools aren't doing much recruiting Feb-May.
No idea what is happening here, but most coaching contracts do not require getting permission to interview elsewhere if you are in the last year of contract.
Agree that you can't sign a contract now, but a current coach can interview to his/her heart's delight.
