Re: Maryland 2024
The Jays briefly looked better than UMich, but then they found the script.
All to ensure that Cornell doesn't get a bid.

Re: Is anyone else sick and tired of the Kavanaghs?
Def sick of them. But honestly it’s more the way Carc and others cover them / talk about them. Not their fault. Unfort it looks like it will get worse from here over the next three weeks. Agree. This reminds me of the discussion of #22 on the Syracuse thread. I get that announcers feel the need to ...

Re: 2024 Bracketology
Yes, four losses, but all to top-4 Power-ranked teams.
It's the trend and the eye test that is more concerning, and I don't think the committee uses those any more than they use Power Rankings.
P.S. Top 7 losses according to Massey.

Re: Coaching Carousel 2024
Of course, Brown is an attractive destination, but it has to play in a conference with HPY (arguably the three most attractive destinations in the country) and Cornell with its legendary lax history.
And following Lars has to be a tough act.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2024
It is because the power rankings incorporate margin of victory, and when you thrash a good team like Cornell, it counts heavily, while a bunch of one-goal wins do not count as heavily. And one of JHU's one-goal losses was to Navy, and the model would have predicted a large margin for the Jays, hence...

Re: Johns Hopkins 2024
In fairness, by this time of year, I believe the Power Rankings are the best measure of the full body of work, and they show Syracuse ahead of JHU.
Each has conference tournaments to worry about first.

Re: Be better Merrimack
Which is why coaches should discourage trash-talking and referees should discourage chippiness. They can escalate into cheap shots and fighting. Better to put a lid on it early.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2024
I have written before on other forums, but I know for a fact that at one of the highly competitive schools (not JHU, and certainly not an Ivy) all seven figures gets you is a good second look at a qualified applicant (25-75th percentile), not a guarantee.

Re: UVA @ Syracuse Sat. 4/20 2 pm
I have heard that it is tough for opposing goalies to pick up the ball in the Dome. But wow. Two weeks in a row. Maybe not a single "he really should have had that one" but you want to steal one every once in a while.

South Bend will be jammed packed and buzzing this weekend. 11:30 am face off @ Arlotta Stadium followed by the annual Blue vs. Gold Football game at 1pm @ ND Stadium. Arlotta has had incredible turnouts each home game and I expect this one to be sold out as well. I wonder if Jordan Faison will make...

Re: Big Ten 2024
Hopkins put up 16 on Uva. Maryland 13 in Syracuse. Ohio St.'s offense is clearly not a strength but Penn St. is. They put up 20 on Cornell which is more than ND just did. A lot of goals go in Acc games than won't in Big Ten games. Take a look at each B1G team’s worst defensive performances of the s...

Re: Big Ten 2024
ND and Syracuse have good goalies. The rest of that conference leaves a lot to be desired from what I have seen. I am fairly certain I could have put one home on Uva's goalie yesterday. Duke is #4 in adjusted save percentage, UVA is #9. Both rank above Rutgers and Maryland. Entenmann and Mark will ...
