Can’t tell me if your kid can ball, coaches like Cathy Reese passes on her because she didn’t get the push from a certain parent coach. That’s nonsense.

Maryland is probably not a good example. They pass on a lot of good players, they are the best program in the country for a reason.... They bring in the best players and they do not take players because a club coach pushes the player.

I'd argue that UNC and BC have surpassed Maryland. UNC has destroyed Maryland the last few years on the recruiting trail. UNC is now the #1 choice for many top players and MD is falling behind. Top players are passing on MD. Maryland's top 2024 committ was very close to comitting to UNC. She went with Maryland only after UNC loaded up with every other top player available in 2024.

You would probably argue that the earth is flat as well... and you would sound just as foolish. One game, one season or even two or three seasons does not make a "Program". Both UNC and BC are excellent programs but neither are on par with Maryland, neither are close when it comes to what they have accomplished as a "Program". UNC and BC are up there in the "Top 4-5"programs, maybe the Top 2 or 3 but The Terps stand alone at number 1. No Dog in the fight and I actually root against Maryland (Men & Women) but have to acknowledge that The Terp Women's Program (in terms of performance) is by far the Number 1 Women's Lacrosse Program of all time and it's not close.
