I’m sure everyone would be delighted if it was Robby Hopper, an LSM and the #5 overall recruit.

Do we have any clue if this commit was on campus this weekend?

My thoughts on Drago are this (and these are purely thoughts; I’m not in the know at all):
Tommy is still at Cuse. Perhaps he hasn’t had the experience he was hoping for, but he’s still there. Presumably, he’s busting his ass to get better and earn more time. Perhaps he’s viewed in a better light by the new DC than he was by Petro.
And since he’s still here, presumably he wants his team to do as well as it can in the time he has left and beyond. His brother will make the team better. So I can’t imagine that Tommy is trying to dissuade Anthony from going to Cuse. I would hope, if anything, that he’s doing everything he can to convince Anthony to commit.
This also assumes that they have a good relationship and that Cuse aligns with Anthony’s educational interests, but the fact that Tommy is still there should give us hope.
I know that’s a lot of presumptions and assumptions, and I don’t want to spark false hope, but those are my thoughts.

Filardi is a big football guy (plays quarterback). Looks like he's taken a few recruiting visits for football, including Penn State, Nebraska and yes, Syracuse.
Two other names that haven't been mentioned but might be interested in SU -
#27 Christopher Alexis, midfielder from Florida but plays for Salisbury.
#37 Matthew Triolo, attackman for John Glenn High School on Long Island, and plays for Team 91 Shock.

I told you guys, watch him for that 3rd attack spot.
How many years of eligibility does he have?

I’d think that’s a good guess… I’m hoping they locked him & Raio in this past weekend
HS football/Lax plus 91 Shock teammates hopefully want to play 4 more years together!

Cute but ignorant. How many goals did SU give up to Georgetown in Desko's last game - 18? The program was left very weakened. So it is Petro's fault that SU's overmatched roster he was given with a schedule that included MD, UNC, ND, UVA, Duke? Without a horrendous faceoff unit.
Petro was doing a great job at SU, rebuilding the roster. Unfortunately he is not here, time to move on. But can the garbage SU is better off without him. It is late September, it is pretty clear we are weakened by his departure on the recruiting trail.
You’re a blame the hammer when you smash your thumb kinda guy, aren’t ya.
No but certainly have far greater understanding and perspective on the situation. You just pop off - no meat to anything you say. Just 'quips" because you are ignorant.
I said it two weeks ago - very concerned for SU on the recruiting trail. Petro was doing it all here, putting in the time. Who on this staff has his resume', experience, & work ethic as a coach in men's DI lacrosse? Not saying the current SU staff will not get the job done, but to sit here and act like all is good is really naive.
No you don’t.
And I’ve never once bashed Petro as a recruiter. He’s fantastic at it. Your concerns, as echoed by a few others, about the current staff’s abilities are warranted, in part because we don’t know how good Odierna and Acquaviva are. They’re too new. We’ll find out soon enough. No one seems to know what role Gait is playing. Is he a front line guy? A closer? Maybe both, depending on the player? Marsh is a grinder, that we know.

The Petro argument has reached the end of the track I think. We can agree to disagree on his coaching ability but clearly the guy can recruit. Either way he's gone so let's look forward

Unfortunate but what I expected/heard. Duke was always going to be a major issue here. You don't want to go overboard but getting late early for 5 stars, need to grab a few high end guys here in the near future.

not trying to be the “told you so guy” but I brought this up last week. It’s starting to get late early in the cycle and we’re sitting here with 3 commits, only one of whom(Kittleberger) is all that highly regarded.
Again, that’s not to say the other 2 players don’t turn out or be better that Kittleberger, but you cannot expect to compete in the conference they are in without the talent.
Have to start winning some battles soon. Sounds like some promising news is on the way, that will be much needed.
