The Curse of Number 22 - Syracuse Lacrosse

[@martymcflywilliams5369]

Keep pumping out content. It’s great to see someone doing this for the lax community

[@laxluke2832]

My fav video is the boys Latin vs Loyola

[@lukep9087]

Taking the number 22 on cuse just seems like unnecessary pressure that’ll make you perform worse.

[@TheShockwave44]

All 3 Powells had no problem with it.

[@matthewcunningham4981]

I think 22 to a deserving senior voted on by his fellow players is an amazing idea. It would make it more special that they have one year to show them what you got. As far as Joey coming in, he’s already apparently been promised by the coaching staff to wear it all four years. But I still think the team vote is better option.

[@danielschuck3123]

Solid take, fans forget these players are college kids at the end of the day...no need for all that pressure

[@Brailhighlights]

I like how you get right to the video, no like long intro and stuff. Keep it up!

[@jackiebee1689]

deadass the best part of the video the beginning lol

[@RTLife]

Joey Spallina #22 - So far, so good. Hopefully the kid keeps improving & stays healthy

[@braddiamond5006]

Jordan now has a wife, a kid, a second kid on the way, started and runs his own successful business that’s growing. I’d say he’s doing pretty well.

[@LaxWeekly]

Always have respected Jordan! Glad to hear he's doing well

The pressure ends about at an I-81 ‘Cuse exit. Outside Syracuse, there is only one Gary Gait.

As a life long fan of Cuse lacrosse. We are now living on the days of past glory. The college landscape has passed them by and I don’t think even Coach Gait can save it.

[@auntkaz422]

Maybe they should do the #22 like Maryland does the #1. They don't give the #1 to a player when they first start at Maryland (it has been done in the past, but not recently). When #1 is vacated it is offered to a current player on the team who has proven himself. And it seems to be a system that works pretty well.

[@JohnNoir8911]

as a HUGE syracuse fan as i’m from syracuse, hopefully the 22 curse is over with scanlan

[@megaladon5203]

My team wears orange and my friend wears #22. His shot in practice is great but in games the goalies always make insane saves on him. Maybe all orange teams have a #22 curse 🤔

[@aj_killjoy]

As I see it, there are two options for the number 22. Either retirement, or do as you recommended in the video and have it be an award voted on and given to a senior player.

[@rastamyles]

You could make an argument that Owen Hiltz could be the most deserving player to wear 22 since Dan Hardy in 2009.

[@zdavislax23]

Agreed. Having Hiltz and Spaligna will be awesome for the orange

[@Whizkidsoo]

Also chase was playing alongside possibly the best player to ever put a stick in his hands pat spencer

[@colindavis587]

I think LaxFactor reported that when Spallina announced that he was gonna be playing for Cuse it was also announced that Scanlan would vacate the 22 jersey for him

[@LaxWeekly]

Oh didn't know that thanks for the heads up

[@laxman4489]

They should either have a team vote for who wears it or retire it altogether.

[@holdenpage6446]

Matt Rambo put a curse on him for not making his lacrosse career 100% perfect

[@matthew7265]

100% agree. There is far too much hype and media coverage behind #22. I just think people need to realize that is just a jersey number, and not trash a player for not putting up 80-100 pts a season.

[@joshpaulson452]

A #2 seed hasn’t played in a championship game in the last decade.

[@StevieD.94]

Cody Jameson ? He wore it for I think a year or two. He was kind of on the fence between average and almost above average

No. Dan Hardy wore #22 when Cody J. played for the Orange.

Make a video about Mac O Keefe and his journey to all time goal leader and a break down of his form, shot overall, and quick release.

I just want to say, I know you did a video on Mac O Keefe before, but his record should be recognized as well as his road to it. That many goals happens on purpose, not by accident. The dude is incredible.

#23 is closer to a #22. Gait and Powell could dominate and sway the outcome of the game. Not sure Scany has that ability. But yeah, retire the number. Too much pressure
