Denver has been beating all the "traditional" super powers for quite some time now. They have proven themselves and earned the right to be called a top ranked team, getting deep into playoffs for years, and now being NCAA D1 champs. But even champs can have a bad day! It's all about resiliency and humility!

Hopkins loses to Rutgers badly.....

UNC defense is an absolute train wreck, only Duke's is worse which allowed them to win that game by some miracle. Breschi must have naked pictures of the UNC presidents wife or something, because how he still has a job is mind boggling. He short sticked Myles Jones the whole game and guess what? Myles Jones had 12 points.......

Syracuse D isnt much better, Notre Dame put an old fashioned A** whooping on them. Cuse will struggle to make the tourney.

2 Ivies in the Top 5.......Yale at #1

Dont look now, but here comes Virginia, maybe Dom has some idea of what hes doing after all....

Love the Ivies doing so well! Getting recruited at an Ivy rewards hard work on the class, not just the field!

I think UNC coach will be fine. I don't know much about the situation at Dartmouth but the coach is only in his second year. The Dartmouth coach did not take over a program that was once in the top tier of programs.

Georgetown is a train wreck and the wheels have come off the bus at Princeton. Both Schools have passionate alumni who will demand more out of their coach. Both teams can still salvage their seasons but it will not be an easy task. If Georgetown can find a way to win three of the next four maybe he keeps the wolves at bay. Princeton might have to win 4 of the next 5.
No dog in the fight good luck to both teams. Would love to see the young men on the field dig in and fight. It would be great to see them finish the year on a positive note.

How about a Hofstra team that lost to Providence and Fairfield, had to win in OT against Vermont, and lost LI bragging rights to Stony Brook?

It seems like it happens every year with them. Unfortunately I dont think that school gives one crap about sports so that coach will be there forever unless he does something really stupid or resigns.

Princeton Coach Bates has been placed on administrative leave after the elbowing of a Brown player. It was caught on video.

Shocking that a University President would prioritize the academics of his institution over sports programs. The football team was costing 5 million dollars to maintain, and was attracting less than 350 ticket buyers a week. The student body wasn't supporting it, why should he.
Say what you want but the academic reputation of Hofstra has improved considerably over the past decade or so. The Med School is going to raise the schools profile.
Would having a stronger lax team be nice?......sure, but let's put that on the AD and not the President.

Average lax, average med school, below average reputation across the board!

Now that the Princeton coach was let go, anyone wondering what's going on at the "public Ivy" Binghamton?

Other than being just god awful? not much. Great school and education to be sure but lacrosse wise just not any good. To be fair it does look on paper like they recruited well in the 2016 and 2017 classes so I guess well see how that goes.

The talent is there currently. Lost 5 games by 1 point last year. This year they are talented enough to be tied at the half with Towson, but lose to UDel when they were up by one goal with 2 minutes left and possession. Good coaches know how to lead a team to win. Maybe the staff needs a change and the AD needs to have a better clue as to what's going on. Low morale And poor game decisions aren't helping.

The guy was 10 games over .500 at Princeton, why would he do well at a school where it will be much harder to bring in recruits?

Agreed! Definitely a mediocre coach at best, however I disagree about it being harder to bring in recruits. Princetons admissions standards are pretty strict. Binghamton's admissions process is tough as well, but nowhere near Princeton and the Ivy league.

Parents and players are extremely unhappy. It's not just about the loses either. There's nothing positive coming out of this program except the Binghamton degree.

Not sure Bates is the right call there. Maybe some different/younger Yorktown guys would be a better fit.

So no big money pro contracts? The degree is all that really matters. That and some memories are all they are entitled to.

Bad memories? Grinding away for 4 years. And no relationship with the coaching staff to look back on. If it was only about the degree, then they would just quit. They love the game and the experience they are having is killing that love. If you're not experiencing it, you couldn't possibly know. And they entitled to more.

They're honoring the 2006 NCAA title team before the game next week. I wonder how many of those guys will have the stomach to stay and watch the game against Duke.

How do you know? If your kid is not on the team you have no idea. Memories with your teammates is what matters. The brotherhood will last forever.

Hard to get recruits? Not my situation, but do you know how many kids and there parents would give a pint of blood to be able to get into Binghamton? A very good school, $22k a year all in, and some money for lax? You sound silly and disconnected to reality, for many, they just don't have the resources to send their kids to private. Wake up. Not everyone has $200+k sitting around for college. They further don't want their kids saddled with a $150k in debt upon Graduation. Unfortunately, there are many people who make too much for aid, and not enough to foot the bill. For many Lax is means to and end. A degree and no debt.

The comments of Jim Nagle are embarrassing about Bates in Newsday No jim sometimes one action can define someone's career. Even if you feel that way the coach initiated contact with an opposing player, that can not be justified EVER
