don't know the rules of lacrosse but i imagine that an athlete like trent richardson could just bull rush his way to the goal and score every time he touched the ball. doesn't seem that fricking difficult. especially when the defenders are tiny white boys that can't bench press 200

If the SEC really has the best athletes, why can't they field a decent lacrosse team?

They say they don't play hockey, because it isn't cold, but why not lacrosse on grass?

Too scared to compete? Or not enough brains to understand rules.

All sec schools have a club hockey team. I know bama at least has a club lacross team. The reason they aren't ncaa sanction is because of title IX, which is incredibly stupid.

UF and Vandy have women's lacrosse programs. They have to travel to the Carolinas and up north for most of their away games. UF's program is 2 years old. Foley build a stadium for them and hired a good coach. Heard they have good turnout at their games too. Wouldn't be surprised if they started a men's program but I thought the same about men's soccer.

Rugby is more popular

Lacrosse is one of my favorite sports to play. I wish it was bigger in the US.

Lacrosse is big here in Austin. In our school district is huge. My son plays, and it is a great sport, and very entertaining to watch.
Florida has an NCAA women's lacrosse program that did great in their second year.
Here in UTexas, it is just a club sport, but very popular.

If Trent Richardson, Reuben Randle, Aaron Murray, JaDaveon Clowney, the Honey Badger and others actually grew up playing lacrosse, I bet they'd be pretty fricking great at it.

Your argument is retarded. Don't lol at us. Look in the fricking mirror.

This same argument is used against the US internationally regarding soccer. "LOL AMERICA Y U NO GOOD AT SOCCER?!" Well, if Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Drew Brees, and Cam Newton grew up playing soccer their whole lives, I bet they'd be pretty awesome at it. Our best athletes don't grow up playing soccer in the US, just the best athletes in the Southeast don't grow up playing lacrosse. Dumb argument is dumb.
