Lastly, come on guys. I'm a teacher and I'm about ready to make some of you stay after school if you can't learn to be nice!!

Don't say guys! There is no equal status here! He came on here and attacked me! I don't put up with that from anyone! Every time I post on here he attacks me so don't even put me down to his level! I have the right to attacked back and will do so every time!
I was comparing locker room to locker room and the women's were better and deservedly so! He makes sexist remarks and people on here say nothing!
So you have no reason to compare me to him! You on the other hand added in the common rooms that everyone can share!

Yeah, the women tore it up last season, 7-11, 15-15, no TV games. Incredible season! You constantly criticize the men's team, you single out a player and attack him personally and you NEVER have criticism for the women, yet they have been largely unsuccessful. Unwittingly, that makes YOU sexist and patronizing towards them.

When they hurt the team I will! Duh! So far it's only been two coaches! Duh! The team doesn't set the TV game. More successful than the men's team since 1999. Better than the men last year and men's team had a so called NBA star player. Dam you're stupid! I didn't attack I schooled him on how to be a college level player as most people on here do but you don't attack them. Duh! You're an ass! But that goes without saying!

guys guys guys - i think we all agree we need to get back to the important topic : women's lacrosse

Second year will be better than (I know duh). But we only lost one starter. I didn't attend the fall tournaments so I don't how well they did. On another note I put up some fake owls to try and keep the geese off the fields.

After game 1, looks like this is the current depth chart (I am assuming McGriff is starting in the absence of Lovejoy, and will revert to a back up when Lovejoy returns from injury- but I don’t know)…


PG 6-2 Lovejoy (So) / 6-0 McGriff (RCJr)
SG 6-4 Acuff (CJr) / 6-4 Rice (CJr)
SF 6-7 Ellerbe (CJr) / 6-6 Osnojik (Fr) / 6-9 Pranger (So)
PF 6-8 Sernev (RCJr) / 6-8 Jihad (CJr) / 6-8 Billingsley (Jr)
C 6-7 Legend (RSo) / 7-0 Martynov (So) / 6-10 Randle (RSo)

Nickle pointed out in the Butler game that everyone is getting minutes. This was especially true with the frontcourt where no one got more than 20 minutes, and only Randle was in single digits with 5 minutes. I can see the starters and minute distribution in the frontcourt to change as season goes on. But it seems difficult (for me anyway) to predict which way this will go. Each of these players seem to have different skills and weaknesses. Interested in anyone’s thoughts on the matter??

Seems like arguments can be made that Osojnik might be a clear best player on the team by season’s end. And probably deserves a starting role now, but I like him coming off the bench for scoring punch. Although it seems that Osojnik and Elllerbe’s joining the team pushed Pranger out of the rotation. Curious if anyone knows if that was the case, or is he injured??

I was wondering what happened to Luka Savicevic and a quick google search says he is now playing for Lafayette. It is so odd now that when reviewing a team's roster, like Eastern's, the vast majority of players are transfers from other colleges. Will recruiting high school players become obsolete?

Bob, you make a great point. I think at EMU, that will be the case.

Why recruit an absolutely raw project like Mo Njie, develop him and watch him transfer after one year? Why recruit a Luka who was not muscularly ready to play in the MAC, only to see him head to the exit after two seasons?

The transfer portal has changed NCAA athletics. Great MAC underclassmen transfer up to better programs while Sincere Carry descends to Kent St and becomes an absolute star. Do you honestly think that Ray Lee or JT4 would have spent four seasons at EMU in today's world? If I were Stan Heath, the LAST PLACE you would catch me recruiting is a high school gym.

I have to agree with all of that. Brandon Bowdry also comes to mind as someone who would have been stolen. It is disheartening to say the least.

Disheartening until you consider Joe Burrow. Without the opportunity to transfer, possibly the best QB in the NFL, never starts a game at OSU and is teaching school in Ohio today.

You and I, and MAC coaches need to accept those changes.

Thanks for the update on Luka, BobW! I lost track of that guy. Lafyette/Patriot League is a nice land for the guy. Happy for him and wish him the best of luck.

I initially was down on the transfer portal too, but DanSplaining totally converted me to accept if not even appreciate it.

It appears to be a total crap shoot. I still can't determine if it helps us more or hurts us more or if it becomes a total wash. It certainly appears to help the football team, notwithstanding losing Lassiter.

Oh, I fully agree. Can’t really tell myself.
