NCAA tournament thread

Honestly, despite dominating this game, Duke hasn't really jumped off the screen. 2/3 of their goals have come on shots that you'd expect most goalies to save. Not many dodges for goals. D hasn't really been tested. Rowe looks to be in tourney shape on FOs. They look like the same team we saw in The Dome.

Hopkins D has been so bad and Duke has dominated the X their hasn't been any game pressure on them.

Hopkins getting a home game was a joke. Their schedule wasn't that great and they were 8-6.
 
My Schadenfraude wants Duke to score 20 in Homerwood & I'm worried that's not healthy :oops:
 
Signed a new deal last year or the year before thats runs through 2019 but i agree if your the Hopkins administration this has to be the last straw. This is beyond embarrassing, there getting blasted at home.
Spent a lot of time with a couple hop lax alums last weekend. Said that good number of older alums actively email all alums looking for a change. More of the younger active alums are still behind petro. Two things he mentioned was disappointment in the offense and the fact that other than Nadelen there doesn't seem to be a better replacement. They also said they weren't sure Nadelen would want to replace Petro.

Their fondest hope is that Meeshigan hires Petro. On the LP game thread they said Nadelen wants the JHU job, but is willing to wait and Scott Marr doesn't want the JHU job or one at a school who regularly plays JHU until his son graduates.
 
It is raining hard in Albany and it's 51 degrees. Not the best conditions for a showcase game.
 
It's an unmitigated joke Denver played Air Force as the 5 seed.

Loyola, Yale, are miles better.
Hell even Marquette is better.

The NCAA is such a joke. They treated the 5 seed like they were the 1 seed.

Hell I might pick Bryant over. Air Force.

The Denver-AF game wasn't competitive. Denver got a de facto bye.

In 1996 SU played Army at Cornell in the first round of the playoffs, similar weather but a little colder. Midway through the game the rain switched to snow. The following day was SU graduation, Mother's Day featured 4 inches of fresh snow. SU won the game 12-3.
 
Why did Anish call Hopkins the gold standard of college lacrosse?

They aren't the gold standard of their own state.
 
Albany enforcing their will. Ierlan is going to be a force to reckon with for the next three years. SU better figure out their next play at the X because Albany is set for then next three years.
