I'll stop whining when he wins something significant, which he hasn't done in a long time. And I'll be the happiest guy around. Otherwise, you'll need to put me on ignore if you don't want to hear it.
UNC Men’s Lacrosse 2025-26
- Thread starter airball
- Start date
Did you on the women’s thread call out Levy for bad coaching when Humphrey had a quiet stretch? I can’t recall for certain…, maybe someone else…
Nope. Apologies to you, UNC80, as it was UNCH:
“Chloe didn't even get a shot the entire 3rd quarter. Awful coaching.”
I’m skeptical to put it mildly. What little I saw of that game was not so much a coaching problem as a keeper problem. But I still need to go back and watch the first 3/4. I’m anxious to watch our defense.
5 pt lead going into the 4th Q
Will possibly be, likely be, number1 in the polls if we win
Will of course remain number 1in RPI
Maybe the Breshi haters can calm down a few weeks
lol

Well done Heels! Absolutely dominated a very good team. So impressed with Coach Pietramala's D and especially Marcus in goal. The offense has got some serious chemistry working.
Should be #1. They have earned it

This team has so many weapons in every aspect of the game. The Freshmen aren't playing like freshmen anymore. Marcus has ice water in his veins. It doesn't help the opponents to focus on Duffy or Petro, because there are seven other players that will burn you, I'd love to see them value the ball a little more, but if they can frustrate the No. 3 team while still turning it over 18 times, I'll take it.

You need 6 to play defense

UNC fires on all cylinders in a resounding 14-9 win led by a stifling defense, dominant play by Wambach/Marcus, and a dynamic off-ball offense.

Comfortably defeated the #3 squad in the country for the second consecutive weekend. This team is legit. Couple of really tough road games coming up though.
Loved seeing the women's lax team at the game supporting the men today. My daughters enjoyed when Chloe Humphrey and a couple other players walked right past our seats.

My daughter was wearing a Chloe jersey and Chloe stopped and talked with her for 10 minutes or so. Really cool.
If Marcus and Wombach play like this, these guys are hard to beat.
I’m officially excited now! (In case anyone was wondering).
Listen, I’ve been on the anti-Breschi side. Joeheel and others make very good points that it’s not actually all about winning in non-rev sports. There are many ways to be an asset to the school and athletic dept. it’s obvious that Coach Breschi must excel in those and that definitely should be a big factor in evaluation.
I also think others should have the right to complain about what’s been a mediocre product in more years than not, as long as it is done respectfully. Without being called out as whiners.
I’m really psyched about the way the season’s gone and the opportunity to hopefully make a deep run.

I stated awhile back that Breschi IMO is like a GM for our team with recruiting, raising money, talking with the top brass, etc, and that he should hire excellent assistant coaches to do much of the coaching, development of the players, run the practices, etc. and that he just oversees everything else. I think this is what is happening this year. He brought in two excellent assistance coaches for both the offensive end and defensive end and it just took some time for the players to adjust to what the coaches wanted to implement. I am so proud of how the team is playing right now, and I know there were a lot of people who felt Breschi needed to go. I did not think he needed to go but instead he needed to be in a role where he could excel at. To me being like the GM is the perfect fit for him and being the HC in name only and letting the assistants do must of the ground work would be a plus for this team. Go Heels!
that Syracuse game was not even as close as teh score indicated. Dominant win.

how long can they keep up this top 5/ 10 win streak?
don’t see how anyone believes the ivy league is comparable top to bottom

We’ve beaten 5,6,10,11,15,18. Lost to 3 on the road. Amazing season so far.
Depending upon the poll, we've actually beaten No.3 twice. Harvard and Syracuse.
