What new rules? The one where Jack in the bean stalk hands out beans on the sidelines to the normal 13 year olds to consume so they can magically grow enough to be safe on the field. Did you mean this as some form of a joke? Ohio State started 7 skill position players smaller than 6'4 220 lbs last night, and Oregon started 8.

It might be time for Canadian juniors to become a professional league. Honestly, just have the 15, 16 year old savants in this sport go pro and do time at some whatever Canadian parochial school like St. Cats. And the NCAA could not make them ineligible either...BOX lacrosse can be defined as a different sport than FIELD lacrosse. And the new Big 5 rules will soon eventually mean that kids can earn some income from their sport up to certain monetary limits which would be offset against any stipends given to the "amateur" NCAA athletes.

Seriously, what about a professional minor league for lacrosse players? Instead of this reclassified racket, just cut through all the hypocrisy of they are going to this or that prep school for an education primarily and ship them off to a juniors professional league. The ringers can play at a high level to prepare for some career in lacrosse be that college, NLL, MLL, LXM or whatever. Then my kid can play with kids his age, have fun and call it a day when he finishes playing high school. Everybody happier that way?
