       Correction...it’s 10-0.  Brutal. I understand that Penn State
       has an elite team this year but our  program should be at a
       point where it can at least compete with top tier programs
       (especially at home).

       Nagle needs to be done here. He has demonstrated clear
       ineptitude against top competition for years. As a program that
       has had EXCELLENT coaching in the past, we should be ashamed to
       permit this guy to take our team to the slaughter year after
       year.
       I remember when Big Ten teams like Penn State and Rutgers were
       fodder for us. Now we struggle to score ONE GOAL.
       This is our home turf, and lacrosse is THE Long Island sport. Be
       done with this and find someone like Spallina to take this team
       back to where it should be.

       The simple truth of the matter is that the program  has not
       progressed AT ALL during Nagle’s 8-year tenure.

       As I have been saying for years Nagle has to go.  Watched the
       first 3 quarters today.  Team wasn’t prepared for PSU.  They
       were feeding the crease with ease or shooting lazers from the
       wing.  The slides weren’t late they weren’t even happening.  The
       O was embarrassing.  Not sure Nagle understand there is a shot
       clock this year.  They were down 15-0 and weren’t attacking and
       actually got a shot clock violation.  The guy called timeout
       when Penn State was getting ball behind the cage.  Of course he
       didn’t even bother talk to the boys.  Let the assistants do that
       so he can get a so not deserved drink of water.  Even an injured
       Ryland Rees was coaching up the D.  The guy is an awful coach.
       The game passed him by years ago.   Change is long overdue.
       It’s going to be a long season.  Onward and Upward

       Taken to the woodshed for sure. Bad day all around, Penn State
       offense is a buzz saw. Tough draw to start the season after they
       have played 2 games.  Anyone who has ever played in one of these
       know's it's hard to stop. You make bad decisions and try to make
       things happen. Saw this on offense, clearing the ball, forces in
       transition and even the coaches. Clearly they thought the zone
       would work better. O'Keefe had the game of his life. Good part
       it's only 1 non conference game that does not effect us winning
       the America East. Watched Albany game last night, We can beat
       them. From here I see Penn State having a season, probably jump
       to #2, We will not be the only victim. They pasted Villanova and
       Robert Morris as well (two tournament teams from last year)'
       Nova who then went on to beat #1 Yale.  SB team had great
       chemistry 2nd half of last year and I am expecting them to
       rally, you have to forget this one and take care of Brown. Game
       like this is a wake up call for everyone to do better, coaches
       and players.  I would not panic with this team, learn the
       lessons of the ass beating and move on.

       What about the O?  It was 15-0 late in the 3rd qtr.  They scored
       one goal vs their starters.  Have no attackman that can get top
       side.  Shot clock ran out multiple times.  Only one goal was
       assisted for an O that preaches patiences.   Starting defenseman
       taking 3 terrible shots.  No real open looks vs the starters.
       What was Nagle’s plan for the O.  I would love to know.  Seemed
       to be pass it around to the shot clock runs out.

       Year 8 of the Nagle experience and the season starts with an
       embarrassing loss to Penn State. We see one program reaching new
       heights and competing at an elite level, while another one
       struggles to compete for an AE championship year in and year
       out..  I committed to play at Stony Brook ~10 years ago because
       it was a top 5 ranked program who beat Albany 15-0 and on the
       verge of a Final Four appearance.  Stony Brook has lost 10
       straight games against Albany under Nagle and hasn't seen the
       NCAA tournament since 2012 (with Sowell's recruits). Spallina
       and the SB Women's Lax program have won 6 straight AE
       Championships.
       If you watched the game on Saturday, Penn State had play makers
       all over the field, from their goalie to their face-off
       specialist to their offense who broke down the zone with ease,
       scoring 15 goals through 3 quarters.  Can you say the same about
       Stony Brook based on what we saw last year and game 1 this year?
       Stony Brook has ELITE athletic facilities/resources and Spallina
       has proved that kids want to come play there.  Lastly, yes it is
       only one game, but this is a reoccurring theme year in and year
       out, so patience is lost now.

       I understand what everyone saying, but I'm taking Laxfan42's
       approach. I still think this team figures it out and competes
       for the AE championship.
