Casey Powell with the recruiting pitch can’t hurt!

If you look at his face/body language when he’s talking about who he heard from, Casey Powell is the only name that made him light up

Yup the interview got cut off but he was starting to say he was his favorite player growing up. Im assuming he saw him in his pro career or SU highlight cause he was out of college when he was born.

Still wears 22.

Looks like we are officially in his top 6! Duke is also not listed. Both good pieces of news!

Buckle up -

1+1 isn't always 2 in the world of recruiting. However, if you go by the old adage of where there is smoke, its hard not to look at Lelands tweets of "its gonna be a good week" and then tonight's tweet and not think were in a good spot here. Of course now that I just said that he probably picks UNC, lol.

Syracuse: “From the time I started playing lacrosse, my dream was to play at ‘Cuse and wear No. 22 and carry on the tradition there, which I know is a huge part of things up at Syracuse. Also, I like the staff’s experience a lot — in particular, Coach [Pat] March has been awesome with me, he went through their game film with me and mapped out what they see me doing… The campus was great, I loved the vibe around there and that lacrosse matters so much, but also that there’s good basketball and football.”

Wow. You couldn't script that if you tried. Love it.

Patty March seems to making huge strides in recruiting circles. Very exciting time for the program right now. Seems like they are getting back in the discussion for a lot of these major players.

I told myself I wasn't going to stress over a recruitment again since that last fiasco with Michael Sowers, but here we are:

I also had a good laugh about what he said about UNC. All I could think of whilst reading was Breschi sure is like a used car salesman. He sure knows how to make a good pitch to be getting these kinds of recruits but thats about all these top rated recruits are going to get-- a good pitch and dream that won't get them anywhere.

Anyway, here's to hoping for good news for our program tomorrow!

He says he liked that Loyola's stadium is separate from campus and then turns around and says he likes that UNC's stadium is in the middle of campus. Sounds like a 16 year old who doesn't know exactly what he wants.

Of the answers he gave, only Loyola comes off as a "diplomatic" one, in that he is saying nice things about them but my read on it is that he's considering them less seriously than the others, which would mesh with what I've heard. In order of likelihood, I'd rank them as follows:

1. UNC
2. Maryland
3. Syracuse
4. UVA
5. Loyola

Kind of funny how this is being played up to be the lacrosse version of "The Decision."

Is it really? High profile recruits in major sports typically give interviews like the one you're referencing.

i'm actually surprised he's not making a commitment video like basketball and football recruits do.

Well thats embarrassing. The Maryland #1 jersey doesn't hold a candle in the wind to Syracuse and #22.
