Cornell Gameday...

Give me Mike Ipp - that was a really poor performance - the jury is still very much out on McCooll in my book , regardless of the numbers
 
You can get away with some of the awful decision making against non final four teams, but this is where you get buried. Lots of things in this game happened in the Denver quarterfinal, let alone the Cornell game from last year as well.

Just too many players that know better letting themselves down.

Tough game but to way to many mistakes we've seen Gait teams make. Need to regroup and win next week at a struggling Duke

Why is this gait teams ???? Desko’s teams made mistakes so did Simmons your pick for coach Andy Shay’s team is pure trash . There are no undefeated teams so tell me whose team doesn’t make mistakes???

Gaits the coach, whose responsibility would it be when the team consistently starts slow in big games; Kevin Donahue? Kyle Fetterly? Quint Kessenich? Duke in the Acc tourney last year, Towson and Denver in the tourney Marykand and Cornell this year etc. Team looks unprepared full stop. Doesn't mean I think he should be fired but you can't ignore reality either.

Comparing Gaits teams to Desko and Simmons is worse then your take on Anderson. Desko has 5 national titles, Gait hasn't made a final four yet.
 
ND 12 UVa 7.
ND was up 7 with like 5 mins left before UVA went on a run ND scored an empty netter with 30 secs left to save the push
 
I’m sorry, but I just can’t let this go. I’ve been listening to Booker Corrigan call both HS & College games for years so I’m well versed in his sophomoric antics & catch phrases. His lyric references & sayings like “that shot was more far right than a Michael Moore movie” or “that shot got more pipe than….(followed by a Hunter Biden or Marion Barry drug use reference)” may catch new listeners off guard but he’s been saying this stuff for years.

That being said, following a 3rd quarter Cornell goal, he said “nice hard bouncer….a little Paris Hilton there.” The other announcer, who laughed at his jokes all day, clearly sounded uncomfortable & didn’t even respond. Am I crazy or is this anything other than a completely vulgar & inappropriate reference to her sex tape? He is who he is & his shtick isn’t for most but this line caught me completely off guard. Imagine if someone said that on an ESPN, ACCN, BTN, etc. broadcast? There’s families & kids tuned in. Again, is this a reference to something else in relation to Hilton that’s going completely over my head?…..because I’m honestly hoping that’s the case.

EDIT: 21:25 in the game highlights in post #379 later in this thread.

I was only able to catch a bit of the 2nd quarter and obviously as others experienced, the broadcast wasn't great. Looking over the stats, those look pretty even outside of the goalie play. Hope McCool can rebound next week, last thing they need is uncertainty there. I'll be interested to see the highlights though because that part of the game I did see man did it seem like they just gave Cornell too many easy looks. Cornell has a really good offense, definitely don't need to help them out.

Nice to see Rhoa get 3 goals today but good lord that was on 13 shots???

I watched a decent amount of the Duke/UNC game and my takeaway was that Duke is certainly beatable. Would hope they can split the next 2 games and they could still be the #1 seed in the ACC tourney.
 
Horrendous missed moving pick call on Goldsteins goal at the start 4th. Clear as day and nothing from the refs. Tough at a crucial time in the game.

Wish we did more initiating from the attack throughout the game and also thought we went with the first line middies too much down the stretch. They get looks, but if you roll with them for multiple possessions at a time they are going to get gassed. We have to trust the depth more and dodge with the attack more.

Leo was cramping/hurt on that one man up play in the 4th and turned it over at a crucial time. English had a TO in the 4th. The extended run they get will catch up with them. Cant wait until we get Thomson back and I would still like to get Deere out there somehow. This is a defense we have tripped up with our offball movement and attack dodging in the past. Wish we emphasized that more today rather than constantly going for middie speed dodges down the stretch. Tired guys make sloppy plays.

Knust killed us again. When he is on he is very solid. Defense often left Jimmy hanging but there were also some he should have had.

An annoying theme has been headache inducing unforced errors. The players have to execute better. I don't know if it's that they get tense when playing from behind, but it was a problem all game. The overly physical play when the refs are calling it tight is also beyond annoying. The staff has to tell them to tone down the hits when we are getting diced up by their man down unit.

Frustrating game. Still have some faith in this team making a run.

Fetterley was taking subtle jabs at him and Corrigan sports all day on TK99. Clearly he’s not well liked by some of the collegiate community
