If it can't be SU, I'm hoping the Thompsons bring glory to native American players.
 
They're all orphans to me. I don't want Duke, Hopkins, or Maryland to win. Otherwise, play on.
 
Albany - b/c I graduated from there and b/c of the Thompsons. They will be the players talked about for the next 15 years, like the Gaits and Powells were/are.

Denver - want to root for them, b/c I lived there and went to some of their very first big games. When UNC played there in 2000 or so, it was a huge deal. Syracuse came the next year. I got to meet slugger, and chatup fellow HS alumnus Sol Bliss. It's hard for me to root for them, b/c. like Duke, their success seems to be at our expense.
 
As odd as this sounds I hope Duke wins it. Always liked there coach and to be honest the constant Thompson/Albany media hype has completely turned me off to them. No for Hopkins and No for Maryland as well and I am not Tierney fan so no for them as well.
 
I usually couldn't care less once su is eliminated, but I am pulling for albany, they are a lot of fun to watch.
 
1. NotreDame - have been on their bandwagon for a few years and have a ton of respect for their staff.
2. Denver - great for the sport to have one of the newcomers win a title. As opposed to many here, I like coach tierney. He recruited me in high school (senior year, not as a freshman like current kid) and was very nice to my mother when he came to our house for dinner.
3. Maryland - I like John Tillman a lot, don't like the way his teams play but I think he is top-notch.
 
If it can't be SU, I'm hoping the Thompsons bring glory to native American players.
Love everything else Syracuse, but I'm a huge Duke lacrosse fan. Lacrosse is not football or basketball. It's hard to hate the Dukies in lacrosse because they have a great coach and very likable players. I think we could easily lose to Denver without Dionne but I'd love to see us take it home again. G'head and hate me for this.
