Game 24: At vcu (7-3), Wednesday, Feb. 12, at 7:00 PM.

[CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY]

No lose situation for me tonight. We get blown out, twas expected. We win, it costs vcu their NCAA bid, which they are on the fence for.

Plus Miami is a 3.5 favorite tonight. They lose I get to taunt. They win, they were supposed to.

Enjoy the game (s), cock lovers!

Agreed on that 5-13 team being more competitive than we are now. Impressive because I think that year the conference was better top to bottom too.

Someone can correct me if I am mistaken, but I think this is the strongest the league has been since that one year 6 teams got into the NCAA tournament.

From Kenpom:

2014--5 in the top 50; 8 in the top 100

2020-3 in the top 50; 8 in the top 100

 

[Copes4Three]

vcu - 72
Mason - 42

Absolute disgusting blowout.

The dreamer in me hopes we break their press and then aggressively attack the basket. I don't care if get called for five charges, I want to see Xavier, Miller, Greene, Wilson, Hartwell and even Mar going to the hole and either finishing or drawing contact.

No dribbling in circles, no handing the ball off at the top of the key, no launching up desperate threes as the shot-clock is winding down. Let's be the aggressors for once and put them on their heels.

Id love to see that every game. Why not start tonight?

If Paulsen wants to salvage this season in some remote way, this is his chance.

also no being trapped in the corner and no looking confused at the press Corey edwards style lol

 

[tblack33]

Two vcu possessions straight to MSS, wonder what their game plan is tonight.

 

[Falco]

Why start Oduro if he only gets a min before being pulled

 

[GMUYoda]

3 TOs already

 

[GMUYoda]

Quick question, where do we rank in the A10 on FTs?

As we miss another FT

Never understood that mindset either. Gotta give guys a chance to acclimate to the atmosphere and game, especially young guys.

agreed, but I have to think it was something regarding matching up with santos Silva or something

Lol was our staff surprised Silva was starting or something?

 

[tblack33]

Ughhh why do we always try to throw it over the double team. That’s a day 1 mistake.

 

[mkaufman1]

Hartwell looked like he’s never seen the press before on that possession

 

[mkaufman1]

Lol was our staff surprised Silva was starting or something?

no lol, probably defense until the media timeout or something

 

[tblack33]

Love the ball movement on Miller’s miss from the free throw line.

Best 4 mins of lil dave's career vs vcu.
