So let me get this straight, Hofstra offers your daughter a good education and some money to play lacrosse and you dont play because you had a bee on your pinney?? give me a break


Good education ,very arguable(definitely not for the money)
Possible Shanon Smith may be less likely to recruit YJ players making it less likely for a YJ player to go to Hofstra
If the choice for SS to give money to a YJ player or TG player who do you think she goes with making YJ player less likely to go to Hofstra.
If YJ let you play for them for free ,would you?
If CR were coaching a college team would you be more or less likely to go.
I can answer both those questions in one , If Carol rose is coaching or is in any way involved NO


Don't you think there are many YJ parents and players who feel the same way with SS
WHY???


Let's start with a complete lack of coaching experience(not saying she will not be a good coach but no one knows,great players do not always make good coaches)
Next I would be very skeptical of how her relationship will be with other coaches in her conference,again too many unknowns, will she really advocate for players she feels may go to conference rivals and help that team win championships.Will other coaches in her conference trust what she is selling? Will existing TG players who are being recruited by Hofstra feel she is their best advocate to other programs?Will her and CR be able to work together if and when a YJ player is considering Hofstra? Many other issues that some may consider personal misgivings such as a lack of loyalty (personally have no problem with her opening up a rival club against someone who did so much for her)etc.
