Kayla Treanor. Is this true?

[laxnut999]

The disparaging of KTs coaching acumen is ridiculous. All coaches are tough on their players. The one's that aren't typically don't excel. You think KAH is all candy and hugs with her players? She's as tough as they come and you're either cut out to play for her or you're not. If anything, it shows that maybe KT made a mistake recruiting players that can't handle her coaching style. But to question her coaching ability is just crazy talk. She's been successful everywhere she's been.

Success at this point will only take her so far. I don’t see continued success with a blown up 2026 recruiting class and a coaching staff in question. .

[Relax77]

This thread has gone off the rails.

[Francophile]

It's ridiculous. If this were such a big deal, she would have been gone long ago. She's not gone. Therefore, it's not a big deal.

You have to remember, close to half the team was recruited by Gary Gait. When he was the coach at SU he had the bus stop for ice cream after losses. He was the exact opposite of tough on his players. I think there are some parents who’s daughters were recruited by GG, love Cuse, but didn’t love KT’s more aggressive style of coaching and it got tougher with the staff addition for 2023-2024. So now you see some anonymous posts with negative feedback on a fairly well regarded lacrosse coach.

So apparently KT and the girlfriend - asst coach - are now living together … Can’t be easy on the other asst coach ….unless KT can be purely objective …..IDK I think that’s a tough one.

If the thread is going to blast out Treanors name let’s stop referring to the other woman as the “assistant coach” and call her by name as well. Pretty sure the assistant she is apparently now living with is Abigail Rehfuss who was added to staff 2023-2024 not Caitlin Defliese Watkins, hopefully there is no confusion there.

I cooked for them, and I am not giving out my secret recipe! So, there's that.

[boboriley23]

I’m a Syracuse supporter following this along. No kids on the team. Don’t know KT personally but do know people around the program. And know several former players who were there under both Gary and KT.

There’s some wild stuff posted here that’s simply not true. If she’s genuinely abusive and violating policies, then go to the media. Otherwise this just sounds like why parents are often the worst influence on their kids sports careers. Too many are coddled.

As a Syracuse supporter, I want to win. Don’t care if the girls are friends with their coach. Honestly there was talk around the program earlier this year that she was too close and friendly with the players. That her young age was bad. And she wasn’t demanding enough.

Now she’s too tough for making people watch film? Come on. Think some of you’d be shocked by what happens at high level d 1 programs in a number of sports. Lot of different coaching styles. The reality is winning isn’t easy. Winning takes a lot of sacrifices. There’s a big difference between being demanding and abusive. If the women don’t like getting called out for losing they should play somewhere else. The expectation is winning a national title at Syracuse, not making friends.

If players have legitimate abusive issues with KT, they should go to the media. They don’t have to out themselves. Both the Post Standard or Daily Orange would report it if there are legitimate issues without outing any of the women. Otherwise this is just anonymous rumor mongering. Some of you need to step up if there’s really bad stuff happening and help the women or quit the anonymous nonsense.

Pretty sure it wasn't DMac's house specialty...

[DMac]

Now that's too funny, was thinking about putting one of my dishes up there with some smart asz comment but thought better of it, so thanks, and you're right, no, it wasn't.
Swedish meatballs mit spaetzle..........yummmmmm.

[truelaxfan217]

Confirmed. DMac and GratefulRed have zero life.

[DMac]

Ha, yet here you are hangin' out with us.

[GratefulRed]

Yes, welcome to the forum truelaxfan. Clearly you are new around here or you would know that DMac is widely considered the most interesting man Upstate.

100%.

[DMac]

The question here is, who is the widely ?
Alicia thinks so though. Brought her a vanilla ice cream,
club soda, and mulberry syrup very tasty and refreshing
drink on Monday (a DMac original concoction). She loved
it, and none of you have ever had one of those. From the
gods, it's delightful.

[LH26]

Fwiw, KT is in MD recruiting at Summer Mid Atlantics today with 2 others from staff...

[Bmk2222]

All honesty this whole thread should just be deleted….

[DMac]

All honesty it never should have been begun.
Only one reason, well two, it was. There's no
escaping the criticism of such poor decisions,
particularly when given the role and position(s).
Aint no sweepin' it under the rug, the dirt's out there.
.....and it sucks, big time!!
