Who do you think many of the Hopkins folks would rather have now, Petro or Nadelen?

Probably hoping he does so he can get Michigan job

the announcers are so weak. stop with the "creator gave us this game" crap.

Why? Is there a problem with paying tribute to the history of the game? The unique history of lacrosse is one of the things that make it great.

yea...the MLB and NFL announcers also invoke mystical spirits during g broadcasts.

do you think that kids actually care about that nonsense? do coaches preach that spirituality? if they do , just wait for the atheists, and ACLU to step in.

Nadelen not leaving, the game has past Petro by. let's face it, guy can't be highly competitive at Hop for goodness sake. Scotty Marr has got to have his phone ringing off the hook... Same with Andy Shay.

I am shocked that JH is keeping him around. They are horrible and have been going downhill for years. They are totally resting on their laurels

Both would be excellent replacements, Marr with a horse in the race. What an Epic disappointment Hopkins has been. The incoming recruits are also all of that overhyped mediocre types on the field as well.

. . . especially if the announcers are NOT Native American. It's the akin to invoking religious tenets for a faith you are not a follower of.

oh he is just "honoring the creators wish" . what a poseur.

Duke Goalie should be pulled, can't save a basketball

Anyone know if today's games will be live streamed? Seems like all the sports channels are airing softball/baseball.....I'd rather watch grass grow!

I am.not getting announcerz on the computer anyone else ha e that issue

Carc is sticking his nose I to the Ohio St huddle I'm the timeouts and has a mic

MD fogo Garino was the game changer. Other kid benched and he took the game over. Should be mvp

The defense won the game.

If OSU was winning faceoffs they would have won. MD was in trouble there early on when the score was close. Once the Garino came in the tide changed.

Old saying Goals win games Defense wins Championships

The team with the most goals win games and championships ;/

The teams with the most goals that game wins championships, not the team with the most goals. Team that scored the most goals quite often doesn't win championships.

I always note down the fogo as a defensive player. So defense does win championships

...oh. So most goals doesn't always win?

Petro's early recruiting gamble, not only did not pay off...
It helped shift the competitive balance by leaving Towson's and Albany's of the world, scoop the, not so long shot, hs seniors.

BTW, just to drudge up the poster who seemed so consumed by the Princeton FOGO who 'cheated', he was selected #6 in the MLL draft . . .

Wow. He is making $15,000 a year playing in the MLL. SMH

That wasn't the point! (That seems to be common place on the BOTC boards!)

The guy who posted throughout the season was so consumed by him and acted like he was some kind of pariah (or should have been), yet he was deemed good enough to be selected in the first round of the draft.

Try and keep up next time!

Well Petro now has 13 2020s committed so the early recruiting train rolls on. He's screwed if the trend continues.

Who cares! Hardly an accomplishment. He must have been a loser in school too. Any Princeton grad who needs to play irrelevant MLL after graduation, has bigger problems.

"Any Princeton grad who needs to play irrelevant MLL after graduation, has bigger problems." Missing the point - AGAIN!! No one said he needs to play MLL, or if he even will. You really need to go back and reread every word that I wrote, then comprehend those words, and then formulate a thought around that comprehension, provided you can make it through those steps. Where did you go to school, because you might want a refund on your parent's school taxes . . .??!

How is he screwed???. He is paying these kids peanuts in scholarship $ and the line continues to form outside his door. He should commit more since it increases the odds of getting an impact player. The players are getting screwed as he has proven not to be a top notch coach anymore and these kids are paying full boat to sit on the bench.

Yeah, but it's still a Hopkins education.

FYI, Dylan Molly is playing in the MLL

You understand that they're playing for fun, right? It's not a full-time job for any of these guys.

They fly you out on Friday for a practice, you play on Saturday, then fly back home on Saturday/Sunday to go back to your normal life and job. (At least that's basically how things worked back when my friends were playing.)

Seems like a pretty fun gig.

Ha....that's always the straw man rebuttal. I know.....all these lax players are really going to Hopkins to be doctors, rocket scientists etc.

Yea, unless you have a real job!

lol. they can hope to be Paul Rabil...that ugly [lacrosse] with nothing to say clogging up the TV, wish there was an x out button for him.

So then the only "real" jobs are those that would conflict with this schedule. Okay.

A real job, one that will lead to serious income, requires weekend dedication, not jerking around with a dead end sport. I'm talking law school, investment banking, med school, etc. If you want to be the next Rob Panell.......go for it, doesn't seem the best path for a Princeton grad.

Depends on what you want in life. If you want to die with the biggest pile of money, work that real job 24/7. If you want to have fun, play games more ofte

SNIP



So the only "real" jobs require working 80+ hour weeks (biglaw and residency) -- banking is more like 90+. LOL

You are deranged if you think these are the only "acceptable" work fields for kids coming from the Ivies and other top tier schools.

And if you are a smart Princeton lax player drafted into the MLL, you get to Goldman because you played! And when you need the day off, they give it to you while the geeks keep working, why? Because they want to brag that you work there!

Just like a new group of dads.

So be a hater, the guys playing a sport at a high level at 23-28 years old and beyond are enjoying life and laughing at you as you get those 90 hours in. What a miserable person you must be.

Gotta go and hit the office for a few hours today. Nah
