PM is the THE GUY for the next few years, Jameson is a superstar. Kelly seems well liked although I don't really know what he does.
I have very very serious doubts if Crawley should return and I lean no. The offense improved by exactly 1 goal in the quarterfinal from last year despite a deep group of veterans returning. He seems like he's able to draw up a decent game plan OR craft some sort of response, but he hasn't been able to both craft a gameplan and respond in the middle of the game. Happened against Michigan and again today. We live in a performance trophy culture, so he'll be back, get all sorts of hugs here but he didn't do anything down the stretch to kick start the offense and I have serious questions about his xs and os and there's going to only be more pressure on him and the offense going forward with everything they are losing.
I've said for the last year that this sr/grad student middie group performance was this teams destiny this season and I appreciate their work, but I am long done with grimes peshko mcdermott evans bauer and chauvette.
I like 51 but that's asking a lot of ayers and brother chauvette to come in and just replace angelus and degnon. I wasn't big on younger brother martin's performance this year.
FWIW I think the pressure in d1 is going to be squarely on Syracuse and our old friends in Chapel Hill. That will be the dominating story all summer, fall, next spring and until they either get to memorial day or get the guillotine. PM to my mind has more than answered the question of whether he's up to the job at Hopkins longterm.
My questions for the program into 2025 if I was sitting on that show with PM
1. What does PM feel went wrong this season and against UVA?
2. What is his view of 2025 and whether they should ask these veterans who have remaining eligibility to return and add transfers if it might just be for 1 year and block kids who could be 2-3-4 year solutions?
3. What does the NIL they've built off the programs stalled rebirth do in a post corona portal world?
4.How does he assess Crawley's performance this year?
5. What is a PM/Crawley offense completely devoid of Petro kids and early recruits going to look like and how will it be different?
6. How do they rebuild the rope unit
7. Who are the next goalies
8. How do they rebuild the offense
9. How do they rebuild the ssdm position group
10. The rising sr class is almost completely devoid of regulars. How do they compensate for the loss of leadership and how do they change fallball so the kids who have mostly not played d1 lacrosse over their careers come in and win.
10. Why all the offsides penalties
11. Any schedule tweaks
12. What resources and administrative support is he still not getting.
13. How do collison, ayers and chauvette take the next steps without knowing who the rest of their offensive teams are going to be
14. What went wrong with melendez and are they better off trying to straighten him out working with a much younger group around him or letting him go to chase a championship on a team ready to win in 2025?
