Check out the USA Lacrosse magazine website. They have a recap and analysis on their website called Cornell 2024 Rewind.by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell Football Recruits '29 - 7 weeks ago
Understand that the Cornell football team will be switching sides of the field at home games-that is the Pressbox side. Maybe trying to switch their luck?by rss77 - Other Sports

Was told that Brian Earle was hoping to take the graduating seniors with him to W & M. They all got better NIL deals at other schools except for Boothby.by rss77 - Other Sports

On paper it looks like Jon Jacques is bringing in a good recruiting class. Two big men should help the interior defense.by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: NCAA NIL/Subdivision Proposal - 3 months ago
The problem is with the triumvirate of HYP and their almost religious adherence to a failed model of amateurism going back to the 1917, 1945, and 1954 agreements. Am hopeful that the lawsuit of the Brown athletes and the Dartmouth unionization movement will flip the Mosel on its head.by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: NCAA NIL/Subdivision Proposal - 3 months ago
If you read Dr Nicki Moore's the Ivy Faculty Reps and ADs discussed the changing world of college athletics at their May meeting. What really galls me is that in order to pay the 2.8 billion dollar settlement the Power schools insisted that 60% must come from schools outside that grouping. So typical when it comes to revenue the Power schools want every penny they can get their dirty paws on butby rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - 3 months ago
Check out Very Rusty explanation on the Laxpower as per Princeton against Penn. Was surprised at the way Princeton looked against Maryland-Tillman and Company really has their number. A couple of shoutouts: Totally agree with the comments about Gilmartin-the young man is a beast Also I credit the coaching for their discipline when Kirst was getting roughed up by Penn-no retaliatory hits by thby rss77 - Other Sports

Much less the pathetic shape of the swimming facility at Teagle. I believe some swim events have been moved to Glazer Arena at Ithaca College. At minimum they should be up to standards of the schools in the Ivy and Patriot League.by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Men's Lax Tournament 2024 - 4 months ago
14 Seniors gone Key losses: Boccafola, Petraeus, Wirtheim, Blake, Psyllos, and Follows Surprised that Follows is leaving-my guess is that he did not take a semester break. In one of his interviews Kirst said he was granted a 9th semester. I am sure in the off-season Coach Stevens will be focused on how to improve the defense. Given that the injuries to Davis and Bozzi hurt the ssm defensby rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Men's Lax Tournament 2024 - 4 months ago
Also great game by the Penn goalie but much to the defense in front of him. Penn is hard to figure-games against Cornell and Duke-they have looked great but in their losses they have not looked like a playoff team. A bit of a roller coaster season.by rss77 - Other Sports

Re: Cornell lacrosse 2024 - polls 4/15 week 10 - 4 months ago
Just want to pay respects to Coach Buczek on playing 2 offensive midfields and giving fairly equal time. The one problem I had with Coach Tambroni was the way he would double shift his first midfield.by rss77 - Other Sports

Did anyone think that Psyllos was a little worn down those last few minutes at fogo?by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Men's lax: CU-Notre Dame Sunday 4/14/24 - 4 months ago
Goldstein had a bit of a rough game with a couple of turnovers-we forget this is only his 5th or 6th game. Also Notre Dame seemed to be winning groundballs late in game-but Cornell proved they belong up there with the best.by rss77 - Other Sports

Re: MBB: Jon Jaques - 5 months ago
Not an easy gig being behind men's and women's ice hockey, men's wrestling, and men's basketball in the winter pecking order but Marnie Dacko made it work when she was in the job-much better track record than Smith.by rss77 - Other Sports

Brown will be a challenge. Not sure when Davis or Wallace will be back this season.by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Men's Lax Syracuse at Cornell 4/2/2024 - 5 months ago
I think he is referring to Dan Miller who is a long-time lax ref in the area so Spallina is engaging in some conspiracy theories. I don't care what the sport is-Officiating is a tough business and it is why there is a shortage especially at the HS level. Miller has coached at a number of schools in the general region-not just Cornell.by rss77 - Other Sports

Re: Men's Lax Syracuse at Cornell 4/2/2024 - 5 months ago
Check out the Daily Orange article-much better than the Sun's (Yes-Cornell on break, Newhouse school, etc.) but the Sun's sports coverage with the exception has been on the spare side this academic year. Not enough staff??by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Men's Lax Syracuse at Cornell 4/2/2024 - 5 months ago
To quote the guy from Jeopardy: Cornell better "Bring It" against Brown. No Letdown. To be honest: Thought I was seeing a replay of the Penn State game at first. Love the effort Gilmartin shows at ssd middle. Great game and overcame a great effort from the SU Goalie Mark.by rss77 - Other Sports

Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 5 months ago
Agreed-I thought the offense was unstoppable but as others have opined Penn's D clogged up the inner passing lanes after the Red went up 6-2.by rss77 - Other Sports
Re: Men's lax Cornell at Penn 3/30/2024 - 5 months ago
The only insight that I have to offer is that the winning goal was scored when the ssd Gilmartin slipped and fell and allowed Rubin to shoot hands free. Just a stroke of bad luck IMO.by rss77 - Other Sports
