Message: [QUOTE="Cuse All-In, post: 4627924, member: 8149"] I have also heard of similar discontent. What makes so much of this tricky to deal with is that the players and coaches are all walking a tightrope - there is a jekyll and hyde schizophrenia playing for Cuse right now. As a player or coach, you can tell yourself that the team is moving up the development curve (which is defensible and rational) but at the same time you know that you are in the toughest lacrosse market in the country, the toughest conference in the country and that you will be labeled a loser if you cannot beat an ACC team this season. The PRESSURE is enormous to win and win now. The fact that all the other ACC teams are legitimately better doesn't matter. Given the pressure, it should not be surprising that coaches and top players are worried about their reputations, future opportunities, legacies etc. [/QUOTE]
