I still can't even get their forum to open. I was really looking forward to enjoying the sorrow.

The way some of the people on @MasonMBB's payroll are reacting publicly to Shaka Smart leaving is beyond embarrassing.

Some vcu fans have short memories. They took great delight in poking fun when Coach L left. now? Either feel bad for them or you're a jerk

He's talking about Rohland calling them out for being hypocrites.

Wow, they are the ultimate hypocrites with short memories!!

Ah okay, thanks. Yeah Rohland didnt do anything crazy. Typical vcu fan crying about everything.

Didn't you guys know that Shaka leaving vcu is a national tragedy? There should be a day of silence and sorrow. Flags (if they even fly in Richmond anymore) should be lowered to half mast.

What a great day people! I was following last night and was overjoyed at the announcement.

It is rather fulfilling that the vcu Ram Nation is taking a big one in the anal canal (despite the fact that's their form of entertainment) after all the spew that they threw at us when OCM left. It's a joy to see that they are not as special as they think they are...

In college I was sort of jealous of friends who went into debt buying expensive flat screen tvs and nice cars while I watched a Sanyo and drove a Corolla. Fast forward several years and many of them are back living in their parents basement while I'm doing pretty well. Sorry to go off-topic, no analogy to be made there.

Maybe the can attract a great coach with their $25m practice facility and $1.8m pay. But if they aren't successful with this hire then all that will be a huge burden for them to pay off. The question is, Do the big donors stick around?

 

[G M U]

You have to imagine the odds are low that vcu gets a 4th consecutive successful hire. They're bound to get a dud like Hewitt one of these days.

Possibility of a Hewitt and TOC hire for them?

I expect vcu to move quick to get someone in there to hold on to those big-time recruits. They would be wise to give a call to Anthony Grant.

That assumes their AD has his head in the job as he was looking while at the FF.

I could see them calling Grant....absolutely.

I am sure his dad helped him make that decision. Although, if Coach Cal leaves Kentucky, that drops them back to the field and does the Alabama job become more attractive?

 

[bravesfan]

Good ole Shaka about to board that plane.
