I've had some good ones. I've had Mike Van Worth and Jacob Merrell, and as far as work ethic, Francisco ranks right up there with the best of them.

I think a lot of it is his work ethic. He had to work very hard at a very young age.

I think he's one of the great young coaches in lacrosse because of his great work ethic and because he has a great rapport with the players. I think we're lucky both ways.

He brings a championship work ethic and a championship legacy with him to Oregon State, and we're extremely pleased and excited that Jim will be part of the Beaver family.

We're adding a coach to our staff who has won three national championships. He brings a championship work ethic and a championship legacy with him to Oregon State.

Very athletic, very intelligent, very good work ethic. And he's a very good role model for our younger players. If Joe wanted to be, I have the feeling that he could probably be a pretty good coach.
