Spiders move from 18 to 16 in STATS and 13 to 12 in coaches.

SI has us #136 overall and 10th in A10. Vcu 1st in A10. Must be another vcu fan crowning them.

RICHMOND, Va. (October 28, 2024) – CAA Football has announced its weekly award winners for Week 9 of the 2024 season.

CAA Football Offensive Player of the Week
Cam Coleman, So., QB, Richmond (Clemmons, N.C./Robert B. Glenn)

Coleman was 15-of-16 passing for 278 yards and 4 TD’s and added a fifth TD on the ground in Richmond’s 41-14 win at Bryant. The sophomore had a 4-yard TD run in the first quarter before throwing scoring passes of 60, 36, 15 and 16 yards in the second to give the Spiders a 41-7 advantage. His 322.2 pass efficiency rating and 93.8% completion percentage are the best in FCS this season.

I had to look up the box score for that game, St Joes was outrebounded 43-30 and were 9-33 from 3 point land 😂

Ha. Well I think you’ve turned it down about a dozen times. Need to keep u Hardt & Lunardi far away from scheduling and we got a chance.

St. Joes gearing up to be St. Joes again. All the talent in the world and then will take some inexplicable OOC losses.

Haha, I was thinking that name sounded very very familiar. Actually saw him play against Dusan in the NEPSAC game, which now seems like about 20 years ago .

AP and Tanner playing really well is what stood out to me. I thought going in the "3" was going to be our biggest unknown and potential weak spot but based on first 2 scrimmages that does not seem to be the case.

Also holding even in rebounding against ODU is a positive. I know Jeff Jones is no longer there but ODU has a long history of being a bully ball, attack the glass type of program.

Box score doesn't say anything about defense, so that remains an unknown.

🙄 Yep, actions of a random person are definitely reflective of a presidential candidate and should be permanently ascribed to said candidate.

Meanwhile, Trump have a guy the microphone at his rally in NYC yesterday who called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage, but I'm sure no one has any issues with that...

And that was one of the nicer things he said. But he was cheered loudly.

AP and Tyne playing well is just what I wanted to see.
wish we could watch this one. I can't logically comprehend the +/- being correct. how can AP score 22 in 18 minutes but be -8, while Dusan scores 3 in 22 minutes and he's +21? to be +21, you'd think he had to be playing with someone scoring a ton ... like AP!

Mooney has said Beagle is a very good passer. those 7 dimes look good.
only 7 TOs for the game is a heck of a number.
one negative is Tyne going 2-5 from the FT line.
Graham getting that much time is interesting. didn't do much with it though.
if healthy, I don't understand not getting Robinson and McGlothin some run in a scrimmage.

first unit looks like it has been good for the Spiders. Again, anyone have any idea if it was a blanket 5 for 5 sub out for 2nd/4th quarters or how much guys were subbing in with the first unit?

I hear you on this, I think there is that model now, and it is called the IVY league. Every year I plan to go out to a couple Yale games, maybe this will the year.

I feel like the Ivy is missing out on a big opportunity with this NIL money stuff. nobody has more potential NIL. if that league wanted to, they could be a power in basketball landing all the really smart great hoopers.

While there is no question that money and greed have a
good foot hold on college athletics, I wonder if there is a
group of schools that wants to start another association, where the
old rules prevail. It would be a mammoth task, but FOX started a
network, Tesla started an automotive business, Amazon started as
a bookstore, etc. With the right organization and planning, it could be done.

if that's what you're looking for it's called DIII. great seats are available cheap.

This is disgusting. A Harris supporter accosted a young toddler in a stroller, screaming in the little girl's face. The rhetoric of the left and the emotions they engender has brought people to this. Both of these people were Harris supporters at a Harris rally.

I believe staff felt game under control, give the young guys some PT and prevent additional injuries to starters.

Start at 15:00

If you don't like Harris, fine, just sit this election out or vote for Mickey Mouse.

Exactly my approach. Not casting a vote for Prez in Virginia in no way impacts the election outcome. Just vote down ballot.

Trump will be defeated soundly in the Old Dominion and Hung Cao will be castrated by Kaine.

Hummel was dinged, but came back to play later.

Brown at RB dinged and I do not know if returned, but I think he walked off on his own.
Hodges at DE dinged but walked off, I do not remember him returning.
Thaos Figaro at DE did return or this game after missing time during the last few weeks.

Hope all ok. By end of game, they were playing all the young guys, so I hope they are all fine and they were just not needed.

I went as a preppy. The parking lot outside before the concert in 84 was just as wild as the concert inside. It was a drug infused pregame event. The smell of Marijuana was everywhere. The Dead had a following, people traveled around the country to go to their concerts. It was a Bohemian, nomadic lifestyle for some of their fans. Some of the fans were Uber rich kids, others were hangers-on. It was the 14th concert for my UR friend who organized our trip. I know a girl who went to upwards of 50.

I am surprised the cops didn't make arrests. They could have disrupted the drug trade in a third of the country.

I told my kids I went, they thought I was cool. I also told them who I went with, they were shocked

The wife of the accountant of one of my first clients after I graduated, wrote the national newsletter for the dead in the late 80s.

Interesting couple, he looked like Orville Redenbacher and she looked like Mama Cass…

Tanner and Glou are a combined 15 for 22 from 3. Big numbers so far. Glou 9 for 10 is pretty wild. Can't wait to see some games and how this come together.

Hummel was dinged, but came back to play later.
