And many of them go to SBU and break it open. Half credit to Joe’s coaching, polishing them as players, and half discredit to the politics of travel lacrosse. Many of these players were very deserving their whole careers, just ended up on the short end. That is also the chip on the shoulder attitude that joe motivates the whole team with, and he is not wrong.

Your 5-21 vs top 10 teams who have in general way more players from those “ not intelligent” lists so maybe those lists are more accurate than Joe .

Maybe you are on to something. Stony Brook gets some very good players but obviously there are several teams that get better players.

That’s not a knock, it’s just reality. The more I read some of these posts and listen to some people it is apparent that some people have an agenda when it comes to the narrative with respect to Stony Brook. There is definitely an agenda at play.
