Re: Cornell lacrosse 2023 - CU recruits rank vs top schools - 1 year ago
billhoward Al DeFlorio Hilarious that 1-4-1 Princeton is ranked higher than 1-7-2 Cornell because it has a higher star "average." Using that logic, 1-0-0 would be better still. Math and statistics look good when you're staring through a telescope at the cosmos. Imagine taking Carl Sagan's class while stoned. Didn't everyone? I thought it was a prereq...by TimV - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2022 - 2 years ago
mike1960 billhoward Artificial turf for the lax tournament. Also: Seats 3,500 -- could that be a problem? Although Cornell at Princeton only drew 2,011 fans Saturday at a 4,000-seat stadium that has been filled in earlier years. Much prefer an artificial field. A muddy track can be a leveler, and I think we're a better team than Yale. I saw Yale live at field level vs Harvard. They a they aby TimV - Other Sports

Faceoff "Problem" - 2 years ago
NCAA Faceoff stats 3/21/22 We are 40th of 72 teams, .008 behind Yale, who is 35th (even with the big day against us) and .023 AHEAD of Princeton (who looks to me like the best team in the league) Penn, Harvard, and Brown. Top team in Ivies for faceoff % is... Dartmouth?! Even with being dominated last game. Petraikis was an excellent recruit, as was Psyllos as a fo specialist. Sometimes onby TimV - Other Sports

billhoward dbilmes The Penn State game has been moved indoors. No spectators. No streaming. Sheesh. We’ve got live video streaming out of Ukraine under worse conditions. A school with a $100M budget can’t find someone to put a router and a tripod in the indoor practice field? Need a camera? Grab one out the men’s locker room. Looks like a shower head. Possibly The Post Of The Year.by TimV - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2022 - 2 years ago
billhoward Cornell95 can we get some help for this camera operator? Colgate hockey camera work was pretty bad as well. Ditto Princeton hockey Saturday night. All true. But I'd be happy to see games if they only came from a GoCam mounted on the hat of a drunken fan.by TimV - Other Sports

ACM Trotsky imafrshmn Aesthetics aside, i think it’s so cool to even be able to do 1930s era throwbacks.Everything is OK except that front plate. That's hot garbage right there.

Re: Cornell lacrosse 2022 - 2 years ago
mike1960 Sadly, it looks like the FOGO position will be a problem again this year. Petraikis won 61% (46-29) his faceoffs in the partial 2020 season against strong competition, better than then #1 face Rasimowicz. He was 10-13 today, with at least three of those losses on violations. Mark Psyllos, his freshman backup and an outstanding faceoff guy in HS, was 2-2. Time will tell more, but Iby TimV - Other Sports

Trotsky For three seasons in the 70s Cornell wore eye-gougingly ugly sweaters. I swear to Ba'al these are what ended our National dynasty. As recently as three years ago they still had one of those hanging in the locker room.by TimV - Hockey
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2022 - 2 years ago
billhoward Trying to remember if Dom Starsia, ex Virginia coach, played D for Brown that 1971 seasons or he was still a freshman. He was still a freshman and therefore ineligible for the varsity. Had he played, maybe we don't get ten goals.by TimV - Other Sports

Re: Cornell lacrosse 2022 - 2 years ago
I'm hoping the book includes at least something about Ned Harkness' teams of 66-68 (32-1). Richie gets a lot of well deserved credit, but Ned took a team with mediocre to bad records to two undefeated seasons and is really the one who started the whole thing. While simultaneously doing pretty good things with hockey.by TimV - Other Sports

Re: Cornell Football 2021 - 2 years ago
Wouldn't it be a riot to hire LSU's cajun coach Ed Orgeron to revive us? When he turned Ole Miss around years ago he started his first team meeting by taking off his shirt and challenging everyone in the room to a fight. Or maybe ex-Texas coach Steve Sarkisian. Texas is paying him about 32 million to not coach them this year, so he doesn't need the money.by TimV - Other Sports
