In theory, and I'm not saying they will, but, in theory, the AD and Gary could insist that Petro wear a Hooters uniform at all times. They could. Just 'cause it's orange and they want to get a feel for Petro's commitment to his new team.

No
Gary & Dave have been rivals for 30+ years, they have also been friends with mutual respect for 20+ years

I like Petro the player a lot more than Petro the Head Coach at JHU
But Petro the DC is a very exciting prospect to bring all that knowledge, experience & competitiveness into an Asst Coach role.

I remember Gary & Paul being on local radio regularly when still players at Syracuse, getting out into the community and promoting upcoming games.Matnum PI wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 5:50 pmWin with style.

I have met so many people who have underestimated Paul & Gary as just big strong dumb Canucks, as they spoke slower and more retrospectively with an accent than fast talking, say nottin' know nottin' New Yawkers
Of all the skills Gary brought to lacrosse being Bigger / Stronger / Faster was his least influential
He has been a proven winner at all levels since being coached by Ron McNeil as a 12yr old where Paul & Gary were the 2nd best set of twins on his own team, on his own street

gary (and paul's) success in the lacrosse world has generally been cutting edge. especially as a lot has been on the girls' side.45wewantmore wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 6:04 pmI remember Gary & Paul being on local radio regularly when still players at Syracuse, getting out into the community and promoting upcoming games.Matnum PI wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 5:50 pmWin with style.

the bigger, faster, stronger i think you're underestimating, though.

Re: Syracuse 2022
I fully appreciate their BFS factor but personally believe the other less tangible skills to have a more determinate impact on their long term success.
"The lights are on and there is somebody home" they evaluate, analyse every aspect of the game all the time
why are players or teams successful?
What can they incorporate into their game, team, business going forward?

The two opened up with each other again in '89, again at Homewood, went to that one. I had never see anyone contain Gary the way Petro did that day. He was just incredible and every bit the D man he was said to be. A very intense and talented D man who was just a beast. I figured it was just a matter of time before Gary started doing Gary things as there's no way anyone is going to keep him under control for sixty minutes. I was wrong about that, Hop won that one 14-13...pretty unbelievable considering that '88 team had gone undefeated. The two met again in College Park for all the marbles that year, went to that one too. This is the one some have claimed was the greatest game ever played (not so...a very good one, yes) but it was no different than their first meeting except Cuse squeaked by Hop 13-12 that day. A combined 26-26 tie for the two games. Petro absolutely contained Gary that day too, was unbelievable. I think Gary scored one that day, can't remember what he did in their first meeting but it would be considered far from his usual performances. Petro was crazy good (so was Gary).
Damn good to hear from you, been a while.
thanks Dmac. I thought then that Petro was the best all-round player I had ever seen, so your great post confirmed my impression. I spend more time on the SU forum where I provoke everybody to tears, but I could not miss the excitement about GG and Petro which I knew would have emerged over here. /quote]
Re: Syracuse 2022
Is he a Hopkins sleeper agent to destabilize Cuse from the inside? Many people are wondering
Re: Syracuse 2022
I think it's more likely he's there to stick it in Hop's asz.
Also think he's there cuz he wants to be and is excited about it.

PS Great about Petro's weight. Health matters.
Indeed it does but if he actually lost 60 pounds in 8 weeks that is almost less healthy than keeping on the weight. A pound a day is not healthy or sustainable. Maybe just an exaggeration though.

wdgsr is still upset he couldn’t bury the events at UVA. Which were more troubling than have been discussed.
He will continue to troll. I expect it
