The roads are snow covered in Binghamton right now (or were when I woke up anyways).
Shame you can’t sled down the side where the women’s soccer field and the field hockey field are now.

Hard to decide in Finger Lakes region what beautiful lake to spend the day at. Hard to decide in Baltimore what street to safely walk.
Different environments for sure . I prefer urban setting but if you're an outdoorsman who doesn't mind the cold winters...

Re: Where Would Petro Fit Best?
IMO, Petro is done coaching at the college level, unless he wants to go very far downscale, a la Meade to Furman or Pressler to Bryant. More likely like Cottle and Starsia to nowhere. (Starsia has family reasons to stay permanently in Charlottesville, but even so I suspect he's not collecting offers.)

Some of y’all have either never been to Baltimore in your lives, or spent like 1 day there and decided the diversity and people of color scare you off. Absolutely hilarious some of the perceptions y’all on here have about the city.

This may be old news, but Coach Pietramala gave a very thoughtful interview on LSN and discussed the "winning cycles" of programs, and how tough it is to win consistently with the new parity in college lacrosse.
He noted that he'd "have a whistle around his neck soon".

Spent plenty of time in Baltimore and live 45 minutes away. When my in-laws visit, and we watch WBAL morning news with coffee in hand, we have to remind them we don't live near the city. The stories are littered with murders, etc. and they are astounded. The Baltimore population has been in a free fall for decades, it has one of, if not the highest murder rate in the country ( over 2500 murders since 2010, thankfully Hopkins and Shock Trauma MD are there), the military sends their medics and nurses to train at Shock Trauma (!), the city almost burned down 5 years ago because of riots, something like 3 of the last 4 mayors have ended up in jail or forced to resign, and one of those mayors is running for mayor again and is leading in the polls (!). Other than that, though, it is a great town!jrn19 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 18, 2020 5:33 pm“Hard to decide in Baltimore what street to safely walk”stupefied wrote: ↑Sat Apr 18, 2020 2:13 pm Hard to decide in Finger Lakes region what beautiful lake to spend the day at.

Truth be told, I LOVE Baltimore. It is an awesome town with a lot to offer. But you cannot ignore the facts I just listed above. And they are undoubtedly impacting the recruiting and campus life at Hopkins.

Well the riots were arguably defensible as the police did snap a kids neck and then try to lie and cover for up.

Got it. We can slide riots over into the “pros” column.

Re: Where Would Petro Fit Best?
Top 3 according to....? Inside Lacrosse? You have to take those rankings with a grain of salt. Especially from an outlet that writes articles about the “All Name Team” or “Best Swag”. If the same crop of kids was going to Furman, would IL have them ranked 3? I am sure they are talented. But you can’t put much stock in that. If those rankings meant something, Carolina would have 7 championships this decade. They consistently have top 5 classes according to IL. Other than their championship run a few year ago, they couldn’t make it past quarterfinals.jrn19 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 18, 2020 10:13 pmHopkins is about to bring in a Top 3 recruiting class in the country.

I completely understand the point you are making. It is completely valid. I just don’t find much validity, though, in the rankings and people doing them.

Why in the world, if the world is getting warmer, would a college in the mid atlantic need a "bubble" ? That goes for the Terps too.
I mean, don't we read how the Finger lakes will NEVAH freeze again.......
does golf course fertilizer run off mess with freezing points of H2O?
