Harvard Gameday...

[cuselaxss26]

we lost mark stevens n olexo (wright too but didn’t play the last couple games). Stevens really only offensive guy yes mulé but in big games he wasn’t much help. How this offense is struggling so much losing 1 player really is mind boggling. Also what did gait work on or practice or preach in off season. Thought that denver lost whole team decided was time to change. Yet still come out playing high school ball trying to create highlights instead of winning or just playing lax.

Is money involved part of problem? Is fact some of them know their going to next level win or not? Seems they all lost feeling why play the game. They don’t seem to play like it’s last game ever for them. Just no do or die or hustle on every play. Really wish max rosa would come back to teach these guys how to play with true heart n give it ur all. Dude wasn’t great but i can confidently say he gave it everything he had. That is what we need from all these guys. Ok make mistake move on and make up for it on next play or fight for gb or make a play.

Moving forward if I was Gait Id shutdown all the outside noise. No more radio interviews and no more walks in the Dome interviews. Constantly talking about a National Championship needs to end. Take things one practice, one play, and one game at a time.

We can't look ahead and discount anyone and EVERYONE on the team needs to lock-in.

 

[cuselaxss26]

Hope we drop out of top 20 n nothing but critics hating n hating. Maby then this team will pull their head out of their asses n realize “ok we really need to play to our full potential “

Sorry i’m done had to vent as was still so so so angry. Prob keep quiet for while now.

Sometimes a team is what its record says. This is a 3-2 team with a number of flaws. We were misled by the flashy 3-0 start. Coaching isn’t the issue.

Are you watching these games and the culture and guidance the coach shows? Please don’t post nonsense

 

[#1cusefa]

Yup Mullen was fantastic along with Thomson and the others you mentioned. I also agree on Ipp, gotta give him a full shot and see what happens. As far as the loss couldn't agree more, worst of the Gait era by far even the Cornell choke job

Great job by Mullen, insulting to his performance for no coach or player to step up and show some intensity!

Didn’t do to bad against army or Maryland but was still under45%. Real good against bad competition

You're moving the goalposts.

And who cares.

Goodnight.

Just rewatched the game on espn+. Honestly, we just cannot finish. We had so many great looks in the 3rd and 4th that these guys didn’t even put on cage.

 

[mastro]

We don’t have that go to guy that we go to when the games on the line. The fact dwan was even in a position to call for the ball at the end and Thompson or someone else didn’t call for the ball is wild.

 

[mastro]

Greedy players looking for highlight goals for instagram. Someone said it best earlier. Syracuse lacrosse is the Harlem globetrotters

 

[SULAXAHOLIC]

I don’t think you can call them greedy players the way they share the ball and if I have any problems with shot selection it’s the repetitive low to low the rest of their shots seem to go and are used in a timely fashion

 

[kcsu]

Unfortunately they shoot about as well as the basketball team

It’s amazing; everyone in the past couple of weeks and back to last year was clamoring for Hottle to get his chance and now that he’s had an opportunity everyone that wanted him has quickly jumped off that bus.

If Rhoa misses extended time, the Hottle bus will be running every game.

Hottle - Cordes - Anderson were the 3rd mid line.

With 2 middies down, Hottle is on Mid 1 and Cordes ran briefly with Mid 2. The true frosh Anderson was the odd man out yesterday.

Maybe we scrap the 3rd line entirely and use a 4-man rotation for the 1st and 2nd lines moving forward?

 

[OttosDad]

Anderson getting zero run the past two games is malpractice

 

[JYCUSE12]

Hottle has a high motor and plays hard i just don't understand why they aren't giving guys like Anderson or Kellogg or a freshman some run. It's like they are worried it might work.

 

[cuselaxss26]

Watch the highlights n what really stands out is our shooting is terrible. First 5goals getting to middle or moving goalie pipe to pipe. There were high to lows or bouncers. Then seem just went high to high or low to low no fakes no hitches nothing.

Defense as game got closer they seem to worry more bout guys getting beat (even tho weren’t or player had no angle) n would slide or half slide which then everyone got confused or where there man was.

last goalies let in some weak goals. Someone said team def not discipline specially when things arnt going their way. Also try to slow it down to much when had 5-0 lead in first qtr. Why! pedal to medal always unless it’s under 2mins n u have a 4goal lead or more should be going non stop.

Guys gotta work better getting to middle of field so bigger net to shoot at also have to take least 1-2 more steps when coming from behind cage n throw something to get goalie to move. Leo to many times had looks but hesitated n by time went to shoot goalie was on it or traffic in front to block.

 

[cuselaxss26]

Also what notice bout leo even on his goal can see him like finally. So clearly he knows he’s playing bad n he is inside his own head. His whole body language last few games screams he’s in his own head. He’s older now been starter for while time to let it go n just make next play. Stop pouting n play better.

 

[cuselaxss26]

with rhoa in

mid 1- rhoa , leo, deere/mcCarthy

mid 2- english, anderson, hottle/mcCarthy

think need to bounce mid lines have some speed in both. For first line leo n rhoa can dodge n shoot then ya have deere as finisher.

second mid without birt needs someone with experience on it. why say english. Or you drop anderson or deere down to attack n have thompson go up to first mid line again.

I wanna see anderson and kellogge get time anderson more then just time tho.

Also wanna see donny scott or or vince bologino get some runs at lsm or even D. Stop with caden kol also please. Junkyard dogs need to be worked on also scrap it put starters or need to add faster poles since it’s a lot of moving when man down. Kol is slow n horrible off ball. Like beck like grace n english. sageder is ok but try scott on there. Man down has gotten burned almost everytime last two games. Time for change

 

[cuselaxss26]

ment balance mid line not bounce
