Because the snowplow parents demand it, wgdsr. :lol:

My unsolicited, free advice to the parent posters who seem to be up in arms is to let your adult child handle the situation. She is over the age of 18. She is in college. She can handle this.

Apparently, the players knew about this situation in time to enter the portal. They either did or didn’t. If the coach changes, they’ll have another opportunity to enter the portal.

There are six lacrosse seasons from the time a kid commits until the kid graduates college. I would think there are only a very few schools as to which the recruit can say with confidence that their coach will definitely be there all six years.

I can think of countless situations where there have been HC changes during those six years. It can be tough, which is unfortunate. But look at it as a life lesson. Life is tough. Things don’t always go your way.

Please, helicopter parents, snowplow parents, back off and let your kid deal with what may be a curveball that came their way. It won’t be the last one as you will know.

You may think I am being hardhearted, too tough. Not really. Let your adult child handle this adult situation.

This statement is not accurate. Blow that with your way of the wind.
if editing quotes, leave the longer string with the username and garbage at the top, and the shorter quote thingy at the end.

feel free to clear it up. meantime, the portal i believe is open again late in the year.

The posts on this board say the “situation” was discovered during the final four. I suspect a lot of people knew before that (just my guess). The portal closed June 10. Not a huge amount of time, but time nonetheless.

I'm trying to think of a situation in college i would want my mother to help me out in, and the only thing i think could qualify is if i needed to get bailed out. even then, i'd probably get cash from someone else. maybe if i needed a lawyer, as i couldn't likely pay.

Yes, NCAA rules allow college athletes to enter the transfer portal if their head coach leaves the program within a 30-day window. This applies to players who have signed a National Letter of Intent (NLI) but have not yet enrolled at the school. Once entered into the portal, athletes can meet with coaches at other schools and transfer at any time.

Just to be clear, if there’s an issue it’s due to the power imbalance between a supervisor and a subordinate. The fact that it’s an “affair” or their martial status or gender is entirely irrelevant.

Just to be clear…their gender/orientation is completely relevant.

What is wrong with lax parents here, these comments make everyone look bad.
I don’t know what happened and don’t claim to but if the rumors are true then the biggest issue isn’t the affair(except to the husband of course), not the same gender(except to homophobic idiots living in the 50’s), potentially the imbalance of power(but they are adults free to make their own choices unless there was even an insinuation of a quid pro quo), but really the decision making on the head coaches part if it wasn’t disclosed to the school. Again, if true, It would show a lack of priority in the school and the program from its leader as it creates a ton of potential liability to Syracuse and Syracuse lacrosse that could have easily been avoided. It sets a tone for every person on the team that it is ok to put themselves and their needs/wants over the program.
Good luck to KT and to Syracuse as they figure out how to handle if true, or how to handle the rumors if not true.

It is relevant because it brings an entirely different dynamic into the scenario. A dynamic where they can claim discrimination if terminated. I am not saying I agree, like, or otherwise intellectually empathize with the argument. But the fact remains, if Syracuse wishes to terminate them, they have to consider the potential backlash of a lawsuit claiming discrimination (“would you have fired us if we were a straight couple?!”). I really don’t think it’s that controversial of a “take”. I worked in a Division 1 BCS athletic department and witnessed an ADMINISTRATOR leave her husband, start dating a female student athlete 20 years younger than her, claim discrimination when HR investigated….and the whole thing went away. This happens. Doesn’t mean I agree with it, applaud it, or understand it. But to say gender and orientation are not relevant here is just really naive.

The problem is that folks keep saying "if these rumors are true." If these rumors are not true -- that is defamation of character. That is why folks are asking for more than opinion or statement -- give us some evidence. Why is that unreasonable? It isn't denying the rumors -- it is just asking a proof. Two named sources would do it.

To be fair, the Syracuse athletic department's very loud silence is exacerbating this problem. If they made some type of statement a few weeks ago when the rumours started to spiral, then this would have been a much more manageable issue.

As a result, everyone involved in experiencing some type of negative fallout

- Current players are being consistently asked for their opinions/who knew what when, etc.
- KT is has a black cloud over her head which could make getting any future job difficult
- The assistant coach's value is being lessened which could damage her future career prospects
- KT's ex-husband is having something personal being put on public display
- The entire team will likely be damaged moving forward due to lost 25 recruits and likely a below average recruiting class in the near future due to these rumors


In college athletics, unless someone refutes rumors, these things become self-fulfilling prophacies as the fallout from lack of recruiting due to uncertainty.
