[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Using inside lacrosse preseason rankings, player stars, and college commit lists provides very little predicting power of how games will be won or lost. The winning teams will be ones with the follow: a) the team with the better players on the spine (x, FO, SSDM, goalie) b) # of seniors who play.[/quote] Agreed. Commitment does not make a better player- it marks a combination of good marketing, the right timing, and coach connections. [/quote] Keep telling yourself that. There's a reason why the best college teams are filled with the highest ranked and the more starred players. I'll keep checking but I don't see a lot of High Points and Bucknell's making the final 8 every year. [/quote] Because UVA is such a powerhouse right now. Look at Richmond’s roster[/quote] UVA - National Championship in 2021, Final 4's in 2023 and 2024 Richmond - Never had a championship. HOWEVER, with their rising success their 2023 class had 3x 4 stars and only one non-starred players. The 2024 - 4x4 stars and 2 non-starred, 2025 3x4 stars and 1 non-starred 2025 - 2x4 stars and 1 non starred 2021 - 2x4 stars and the rest non-starred and they never cracked anything Their best run so far has been in 2025 to the final 8 with 8x 4 stars and 33x3 stars on the roster. Yeah, players matter and the ratings/stars usually correlate to better talent and more wins.[/quote] Weird hill to die on. UVA has been performing well below expectations since Schellenberger and Courmier, that 30 year old FOGO and the mountain men they had at long pole left in 24. Those expectations were set by the 5 stars in their recruitment pipeline, which undeniably has been really strong. So, if anything, at 3-4, they're a deep disappointment the past two seasons.[/quote]
