Yep, Mr. Murphy will be starring on the big stage on Memorial Day Weekend while his Blue Jay ex-teammates will be watching on TV.
The Luke Wierman-Owen Murphy show will be playing in College Park for the next couple of years.
Thanks a lot Jen Baker.

This is not a sign that PM had his hand forced into anything or that only JHU guys work as coaches at JHU.
Aw c'mon. LOL
Definitely a good smart hire for the program, but I HIGHLY doubt Milliman had anything to with it.
This hire puts him squarely on the hot seat. He's the next fall guy; writing is on the wall.
Again, PM's best move at this point is to find an exit ramp while he still can.
Not sure I agree with Milliman not being involved. If he is as smart as some of you have said this is a good for him. I know that the JHU alumni pressure was getting to him. He also had communication issues with Jr. This will relieve the alumni pressure and he is getting a proven OC.

If you reread this profile you gain a sincere appreciation of who he is and what he's overcome in his personal life. I don't think he/the ad/or Daniels cares what alumni lacrosse or otherwise think and Daniels has made it abundantly clear that he delights in the tears of alumni yearning for "old hopkins".

Dumbest thing Milliman did was leave a good cornell program for a dead Hopkins program. Quint is throwing a perpetual fit at this point over Hop's play and the ACC losing a billion out of conference games every year.

Wonder if Crawley will be told he can run his own offense or what Milliman tells him to run. The latter could have been a reason for some of the issues with JG Jr, as it’s tough to implement someone else’s vision (and if Jr didn’t believe in it no doubt the players picked up on that).

If Crawley can run the described 1v1 offense, isn’t that what everyone says the Hopkins athletes can’t do?

Will be interesting to see it all play out and hope it works!

Crawley is certainly a very capable coach, but what will be an immediate improvement from John Grant Jr. will be his relatability and ability to connect with players. He has been great there early in his career. As I understand it this was not a strength of John Grant Jr. It is also equally if not more important than what he can bring to the program tactically - he’s a great hire.

Yes it’s just to crooked’s question, a matter of time. 2-3 more years to build the personnel and appropriate depth to run that system.

Is this a comparison of Epstein to Jeff Teat? I'm not saying that's not valid, although I would disagree, but want to make sure that's the point you are trying to make?

It's never a bad time to point out that Sag A's preferred HC candidates are 13-23 and 15-18 in the CAA and America East, respectively, over the past three seasons. PM's team destroyed one of them this year and the other lost to Binghamton and UMBC by a combined 17 goals.

No, I'm comparing him to Murphy. Murphy was our best attackman before PM got here. Now he's starring for the Terps.
Do you not see how bad this is??
And I didn't see Cornell making any effort to hold onto Milliman. They just let him walk and ended up with the better coach.
He can't recruit and he sucks as a coach. Unless he wins the NC there's not way he gets a contract extension.
If I were him, I'd be looking for a new home ASAP.
