Thanks OC for pointing this out. I did something similar in the UNC thread when someone made a similar claim.

100% agree - as someone with a kid in the application cycle now, applications to the big state universities in the South are way up and those spots are much, much harder for the out of state kids. Look, 5/8 of my son's HS experience was largely ruined by Covid. He is very, very focused on having as normal a college experience as is possible, even if that's not at the most-prestigious school he gets into.steel_hop wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 12:49 pm As a note (and this isn't directed at you) if you think kids still wearing masks doesn't impact recruiting then you are not looking through this with parental glasses.

I nearly died twice in the last 17 months due to what are very likely long-term cardiac sequelae of a Covid-19 infection in March 2020.nyjay wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 4:16 pm100% agree - as someone with a kid in the application cycle now, applications to the big state universities in the South are way up and those spots are much, much harder for the out of state kids.

Don’t be imprudent in considering the inconveniences that may prevent a mild or even non-symptomatic Covid-19 infection. Even healthy young adults can develop long-term sequelae that are potentially devastating.
I use the term “imprudent”, but please understand that I mean something more. I just don’t want to be impolite to parents who obviously care about the future of their children.

Thank you, nyjay.

Lacrosse is still a pretty close knit sport. If people on this thread already know it, chances are, a lot of people around the sport, already know about it from teammates, boosters, friends, parents, high school/Club coaches, former teammates, etc. It won't be a secret much longer. That being said, we should respect the kid's privacy here.
Your family. Just note that Covid-19 could not care less what your “mind” thinks about it. Plenty of indifferent people have learned that the hard way.steel_hop wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 5:08 pmOh, okay. I've completedly change my mind on this.

The team released a mid-week video and I saw #32 lined up for a shooting exercise. So, we can probably exclude him.DocBarrister wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 2:12 pmNo need to provide names. Just answer a few vague, generic, non-specific questions that would in no way allow us to identify the injured attackman by name.
1) Has the injured attackman ever scored 73 points in a single season?
2) Is the injured attackman a sophomore?
3) Does the injured attackman have a surname that rhymes with BeTimone?
Thanks.
