Re: UVA 2024
At this point in the season, Hop looks like a post-season level team.
Nice to have this rivalry competitive.

Re: UVA 2024
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...

Re: UVA 2024
My bad if that’s so. I always thought he was a 20% type. My bad. I saw the game this weekend. His shots were, charitably speaking, not always wise. The Richmond game was definitely an outlier. From my armchair, it looked like he was pressing to get the record, but there are a myriad of explanations...

Re: The Top Current Assistants In DI?
I think this new kid at UVA, Kevin Cassese, has the potential to be a HC someday ;) Obvious choice... :lol: Also Caputo at Duke. There is a real challenge in predicting who will successfully transition to HC from coordinator. It is a very different role. Some guys are wired to be the #2 and not the...

Re: UVA 2024
Doubt it. I can’t imagine any DC that would ever think about taking focus off of Shelly or Cormier. Keep in mind Millon led the team in turnovers with 3, had 0 assists, and a conduct penalty. You want the ball in his stick compared to the rest of the attack This is actually an argument for sliding ...

Re: Way too early Final Four
this strikes me as the most realistic expectation. Although to quibble, if the list is in order of likelihood/seeding, I would probably tweak it a bit and go: Duke, UVA, ND, Cornell/UMD.

Re: Possible face-off changes
Is any sport more popular on TV than football and it has dead air on every play? This happens every two years when the genius rules committee changes the rules of a great sport. Have they ever said after one of these meetings, that the rules are good no changes? They all want to leave their mark wh...

Re: NCAA reorg imminent
Legal question is that if a league decides they are going to be pure amateur - can they prohibit players who have received money from competing in their particular league? Schools can likely do what they want so long as they are opting out of big business college sports. And if you want to REALLY b...

Re: Does John Danowski Retire On Top If Duke Wins A National Title Within These Next Few Years?
Will his son get the job? this is the only blemish on what I otherwise have to admit has been a stellar career. lowandaway is correct - John Danowski is a good man and coach. But nepotism is not a good look. I get that it is great to be able to work with your son - and that is a great privilege IF ...

Re: NCAA reorg imminent
Not sure that an opinion can be "patently false", but removing that hyperbole, you make a sound argument. fair Will that not shrink D1 competition to just those schools and the specific sports with alumni bases that have relatively unlimited deep pockets? to an extent - yes, I think this ...

Re: W&L 2023
In the late 70's lacrosse was a club sport for HS players and the clubs had several different schools combined. Braddock Road was a VA club that actually sent a few players to play at D1 programs. The first official season in VA was 1988 when VHSL held a state championship but it was a provisional ...

But yeah, an arms race is going to drive a whole lot of schools to cut athlete opportunities. And that'd be a heck of a shame IMO. Id be shocked if this didn’t happen.

Yes the players will get some of the huge B1G / SEC tv windfall. That’s when the secondary conferences will have it hard to compete. so, it's not the last $20 million difference between conferences that makes it difficult to compete, but the next $20 million difference. got it. which all leads to t...
