Wizard. You still have your other profile?Taking the coach with 40 career wins vs over 300...?Backupstix wrote: ↑Wed Feb 14, 2024 9:00 pm Bullets by two, yes very young team but a lot of talent. It will come down to coaching… my money is on Toner.
York W&L is pushed back to 2pm. 30 miles west will probably do something similar. Check their socials for up to the minutes.YCOLaxFanSU wrote: ↑Thu Feb 15, 2024 6:58 pm Curious since I am planning to attend the game...any chance the 1-3 inches of snow (possibly more) ending at 7 am, will cause the game to be postponed? Or can that be cleared before 1.
Yes sir, I’m a bit of a Homer on this one.creasecranker wrote: ↑Thu Feb 15, 2024 6:17 amTaking the coach with 40 career wins vs over 300...?Backupstix wrote: ↑Wed Feb 14, 2024 9:00 pm Bullets by two, yes very young team but a lot of talent. It will come down to coaching… my money is on Toner.
The transition from Coach Janczyk to Coach Toner has been relatively smooth but still a transition, the COVID wind down with opt outs, etc., certainly didn't help, not an excuse just an observation.D3LaxFan2 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 15, 2024 10:08 pm I'll have to see it before I believe it with Gettysburg. It is not a good three year trend, if you look past the name. 13 losses in the 2 seasons after Hank Janczyk retired, and didn't even make the Centennial Conference championship this past year. Nobody on the roster has ever beaten Swarthmore, and they graduated most of their top players. I'm not sure where all the optimism is coming from?
I think this is the year you see if Gettysburg is going to continue to be a perennial top 10 team or if they are slipping a bit. Toner has some very good wins over the last 2 seasons and some questionable losses as well(Swarthmore 3 times). What I have said before and will say again is now that Hanks recruits are gone how does the team perform? I havent seen many Toner recruits on the field in the last 2 seasons....With that said I do not think the sky is falling for Gettysburg, the school is well known nationally and will continue to draw talent. As much as Hank was able to collect is TBD. I see this team struggling early until these younger players get some expierence and they will be a pretty good team come April.Laxdds wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 7:56 amThe transition from Coach Janczyk to Coach Toner has been relatively smooth but still a transition, the COVID wind down with opt outs, etc., certainly didn't help, not an excuse just an observation.D3LaxFan2 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 15, 2024 10:08 pm I'll have to see it before I believe it with Gettysburg.

Since Coach Toner has taken over Gettysburg has gone 27-13 overall and 12-4 in the CC. They have beaten: Salisbury, York, Roanoke, Dickinson, F@M x2, W@L X 2. They have made the tournament both years under Toner. Yes the inability to beat Swarthmore is a head scratcher but I would say there is plenty to be optimistic about.
Toners first true recruits are the freshman this year. The sophomores were his recruits but he didn’t get the job until summer so I’m sure there wasn’t much time to actually recruit for his first season. Their were several freshman starting at the Eastern scrimmage last week that actually contributed.ReturnOfTheWAC wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 9:52 amI think this is the year you see if Gettysburg is going to continue to be a perennial top 10 team or if they are slipping a bit.

Game is still scheduled for 2:00YCOLaxFanSU wrote: ↑Sat Feb 17, 2024 7:51 am The storm generally underperformed. I'm an hour east of Gettysburg and we were supposed to get the same amount. Maybe a couple inches and the roads are fine. They wouldn't move the game back to 1 would they?
I know opinions on this differ, but I think end of the bench guys being involved in celebrations is actually a good indicator of a positive culture and everyone being bought in. It's really easy to get frustrated/bitter when you're not playing, and I always like seeing sidelines that are fully engaged. It's one of the reasons why I think the constant policing of sideline celebrations is so ridiculous.MVPiccoli wrote: ↑Wed Feb 14, 2024 11:14 am Agree with all those takes. I think Lynchburg rolls. Curious to see how the Hornets gel this year. 7 grad students, it looks great on paper. I mean, how long can you keep top recruited talent, who have been waiting patiently to contribute, and are only engaged in sideline celebrations, bought in?
