He’s got no choice but to stay. He’s banned from 91, he can’t coach at express or anywhere else for that matter. He has to stay. Which makes everyone else leave.

91 parent bashing a coach. Typical.
Noone else has a problem with him, except you.
You hate the geese assistant coach.
You hate the Ducks coach.
You hate the S2S coach.
The list goes on and on.
What does pattern show.
The pronlem is toxic parents at 91.

This is what his players parents think of him ....
“Reilly is a nice guy and not a bad daddy coach. He is encouraging for the kids. But he doesnt seem to have an understanding of lacrosse language and what he says doesnt make sense at times. He needs to work on that. And probably could be a bit less vocal, and leave that to the head coach.”

To his credit, it was a mess before he came. No coaching, no leadership, parents running the show, he didn’t come in to a great situation. The people that left, as cancerous as they were, made the right choice to leave but should’ve waited until the end of the season to be fair to the other kids. Now more than half the team is gone. And not because of the 91 daddy.

Dynamic Sports made a ton of money. What did you think was going to happen?

Aa expected a very expensive waste of time I am sure. At some point these 11 year olds need to put down their sticks. IMO

100% agree

Reilly has brought a lot more than we lost. Very nice guy who the kids love. He is great at motivating the kids.Fiore gets how to coach kids a lot more than he gets credit for. You don’t develope good Lacrosse players by standing on the sidelines yelling to each kid what he needs to do. He coaches in practice and gives the kids the space and time to develope the iq needed to succeed. He is the reason 91’had to get Spallina to coach and Express has to roll out Chan to save their kids. Through all of the wins and even last years tough losses his demeanor and plan for the kids has never changed. And when Mixed Nuts parents tried to band together to dictate who they wanted coaching or they would leave , the organization proved to everyone it wasn’t about money because they let them go even though we had maybe 20 kids not 25+ or 40 like the other teams. And right after you made your last tuition payment to 91 last year they added 3 kids to the roster. So bash all you want. We know we are the right spot just as much as you know 91 will screw you again.

Being an outsider, but a parent of a 2025er, this is all seemed so odd. But then I think back to the inane mixed nuts rants. Bottom line, if I ran a club... I say here is a full refund and I don’t want your business. I would hold a parents and coaches meeting and move on. You would earn the respect of a lot people, because the silent majority is seldom heard.

LI just got beat by a better team with 90 seconds left. it happens.

The organization did what? Are you having a liquid breakfast? The organization sat back and allowed the downward spiral starting with daddy war bucks and ending with the parents saying they will leave if you don’t meet their mandates. Which you did willingly and when daddy war bucks saw the low level of play with these golden kids he ran for the hills and that’s when they left. They were promised to play with the “best 2025 attackman in the country” by daddy and when he left , they left. But by then you had already hired 91 coach to help destroy whatever integrity was left. Only after you told parents “no daddy coaches” which had happened all along with daddy war bucks, the coach that sent an email that never showed up to one practice and then 91 savior. If the parents respected the organization for “letting them go” and “no daddy coaches” then they would not have left at the end of the season. Probably should’ve “let them go” and stood by your “no daddy” clause in August and you may have been able to field a team next summer.

So is goalie leaving Geese? Can’t fly too high without quality between the pipes.
