Folks, I’ve lost a step. Used some form of “talented” 3x in the same tweet before catching it and editing. Time to watch the film and get better.

Princeton lands a two-sport stud in Joe Hayes. The longtime OSU commit from Ohio’s Bishop Watterson is a standout defensive back and four-star LSM — he’ll now take his talents to @TigerLacrosse and @PrincetonFTBL.

“I just spoke to my agents, and since I’m listed as a 4-star and the reason we committed is now out the door, we are going to decommit from Maryland.”

It is hilarious that this happened before @BCEagles and everyone in New England knows it.

Holy pet peeve. I’ll gladly join you on this crusade and have complained about it to anybody who listens. If someone told me that more than 30% of the 2028 recruits who posted their commitments this fall incorrectly used 28’ instead of ’28, I’d believe it.
It’s 2026 and we still don’t know that the apostrophe goes in front of the number. smDh

Speaking of tournament expansion… THIS is an absolute disgrace.
Sources: The College Football Playoff is nearing a deal to expand to 24 teams, per sources. The new format will start in 2027 and is expected to come together in the near future, pending final approvals.

Exciting day for lacrosse for a multitude of reasons. 🐎 It’s hard to see how this doesn’t bring us closer to NCAA Tournament expansion. That’s the potential trickle-down effect and a massive step in the right direction.

Princeton middie Tucker Wade has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal as a grad student, I'm told. The first-team All-American's absence was conspicuous when the Portal opened 15 days ago. I do not think the timing is coincidental.
The 2026-27 @NCAALAX Transfer Portal opens to grad students on Oct. 1. Those who enter are largely looking to transfer for the 2027-28 school year, i.e. the ’28 spring season. As of 9:30 a.m., there are 50 players in the @Inside_Lacrosse Portal Tracker: insidelacrosse.com/article/d…

SMU wasn't making a secret of their interest in doing this, but good to see it out in the open. The reported $20 million raise is interesting. In most past situations where P4 schools have looked into adding they wanted an amount that would fully endow the program, which is at least twice that.
SMU shifted their efforts into high gear this fall to add varsity men's lacrosse. The effort comes as the Mustangs hope to compete in the 2028 spring season and take advantage of the many Ivy League seniors in the Transfer Portal. Read: insidelacrosse.com/article/A…
