no need to bash others to make a point - it is a big accomplishment for any kid to go on and play college lacrosse at any level - D1,2,3 club ect. many factors into decisions and not just lacrosse (location, scholastic and cost being major factors)

As for the coaching argument I am a big believer in the best coach usually gets off the bus with the best players - was Bob Hartranft a mediocre coach for 46 years and a great coach for one year? has Dennis Bonn really become a better coach the last three years and if he goes 12-5 this year is he not as good a coach as he was last year? No, it depends on the players.

Obviously there are great coaches, good coaches and bad coaches but IMHO a bad coach can win with great players but a good coach can not win a championship without them. give me a strong youth program, a 75% fogo and a 65% save goalie over a "great" coach any day
