Wasn't Petro knocked for rolling out smurf offensive and defensive middies? Now size doesn't matter? What changed?
Re: Johns Hopkins 2023
This is probably a $50-$60 value at least so the university is rightly seeing the moment and investing to try to bring alumni and the community back.

Sigh - the last 3 quarterfinal appearances - Newark DE '14/Annapolis '15/Annapolis '18 - they did the same thing - I don't remember if and what they charged/what food or drinks were available but there was a big tailgate sponsored in part by BJU - I think - I was at all of them. So they are not seeing any special moment

Re: Johns Hopkins 2023
*edited* This team reminds me of the 2007 team. Nobody really thinks they can win it all (except true Blue Jay fans). In the 2007 Final Four, you had Delaware (Michigan this year) who were the underdogs people were pulling for. You had Duke (ND this year) who were snubbed the year before. You had Cornell (undefeated at the time of the Final Four) (Duke/Virginia this year) who everyone thought were a step ahead and virtually unbeatable. Then there was HOP, who was a hard fought team (9-4 entering the tournament 11-5 this year) that didn’t see much media attention ( almost every other team has an IL article) that surprised everyone. Hoping it’s the same 16 years later. #WEWANTMORE #JUSTANOTHERDAY

Re: Johns Hopkins 2023
Comparing the 2007 Delaware fighting Alex Smiths (I know Dickson was excellent) to the 2023 Mich team is not a realistic comparison on actual personnel, style and/or strength/weakness analysis. Just starting with solution then building the formula backwards. None of this is actually analysis just a narrative which everyone will forget when it doesn’t shake out but on the lottery ticket chance Hop wins it all then this can be claimed as a prescient call in what one might describe as risk transference to obtain asymmetric upsideHopkinsD43 wrote: ↑Thu May 18, 2023 9:09 pm *edited* This team reminds me of the 2007 team.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2023
I never said that there was a direct/exact comparison (players/coaches/etc) to the 2007 Final Four teams and the teams I mentioned from this year (yes I know we are in the Final 8 and nobody has made the Final 4 yet). I was just saying the narrative for the teams in 2007 ( which I outlined) mimics some of the narrative now. The 2007 HOP team was a much different team then this years team. I am also not saying the outcome WILL be the same, just that I hope it is. I was not making any predictions.Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Thu May 18, 2023 10:54 pmComparing the 2007 Delaware fighting Alex Smiths (I know Dickson was excellent) to the 2023 Mich team is not a realistic comparison on actual personnel, style and/or strength/weakness analysis.

That was an extremely talented Hens team — a lot more than just Curtis Dickson and Alex Smith. Those Delaware teams had a much more challenging schedule than today’s Hens.
Maybe the comparison works on this end, both Delaware then and Michigan now were teams that had been looked at as underperforming, certainly at conference tournament time and as far as making and winning in the NCAAs.
Another interesting comparison, both Delaware in 2007 and Michigan this year beat the prior year’s undefeated National Champions. Hens didn’t just beat UVA by a goal or two.
Personally, I thought Hopkins’ strategy for beating the Hens that year went a long way towards helping them beat Duke.

Anyone can spin any narrative they want. Doesn’t mean anything. It’s a solution looking for a problem though.

Re: Johns Hopkins 2023
I don't see many parallels to 2007 except for the fact that very few think Hopkins is going to hold the Gold Trophy in 10 days time. In '07 Hopkins had a very tough first round opponent - Notre Dame coincidentally - the game that put me in the equipment shed for what seemed hours for the thunderstorms (Kimmel scored in OT after 11 PM) not a 14 goal blow-out. Hopkins was probably an underdog to a 12-2 Georgetown team in the 1/4s but it wasn't by 4-5 goals. Delaware - while a very good team - was unseeded - and upset a Virginia team that would have been a formidable opponent (with a healthy Rubeor). Duke was Duke and a great moment. This team has way more things to worry about. Quint thinks Notre Dame is going to romp - he's citing goalie differences and the Irish's ability to tackle the Hopkins shorts sticks which seem particularly vulnerable if Martin is way less than 100% - he might be annoying but he might not be wrong.

Don't think we're playing well, and still within striking distance. On the other hand, ND isn't exactly playing lights out either and they're up 3, so...
Our SSDMs just don't look up to the task against the ND midfield. Any comeback hopes will require Marcille to make some saves that he shouldn't.
