Good start for Roche.

Just saw the lineup. Almost exactly what I was hoping for. I wanted AP and Roche to start, but thought maybe Dusan instead of Tyne. But, maybe Tyne can play better with this group. And, I realize Dusan for Tyne leaves just one main ball handler. Just glad we are mixing it up.

Right might as well experiment - let's go

Any thoughts on health of Walz or White?

And I do feel like we are forcing outside shots. As in all outside shooters are still in motion when they shoot.
Hoping that changes sometime.

I was wondering if the constant subbing in and out has anything to do with forced shots. Maybe we need to let these guys, reserves included, settle in for a little longer so they don't feel pressure to score right away when out there. I normally don't worry as much about that, but we need to consider that when things are going so poorly right now. Maybe all the new guys are trying too hard and forcing things instead of running the offense and letting the game come to them. AP especially might be rushing shots. He has taken some bad ones and has to be a much better shooter than 4-22 from 3. Maybe starting him and letting him settle in will help.

It would be nice to see a good game out of Roumoglou. 6-32 to start the season and I’m starting to cover my eyes everytime he shoots. Something I haven’t done since Deion Taylor

And (at least for final warmup ) Roche has black knee brace on that I guess I don't remember seeing the last few games ?

Gaetz is a poor choice, but he will clean house at DOJ. This one is Trump trolling the opposition at its best.
Gabbert is a poor choice (maybe), unless she takes her job seriously.
Kennedy maybe an OK choice, if he cleans up our food. One could certainly object to the obsessive shaming and firings over COVID Vaxes and school shutdowns. Most of the American public is sick of the politicization of science- follow the science.
Hegseth is a poor choice, although he may be a good leader. The leadership in the Army is more interested in forcing woke policies on the rank and file than in fighting wars.

There have been a lot of thoughtful opinions about the unsuitability of these four.

People die in wars. People are maimed in wars. Lives are ruined by wars.

One thing the leaders of our armed forces should be interested in is finding ways not to fight wars, instead of seeking out bad ones (Vietnam, Iraq) every generation or so.

Vaccines save lives. Vaccines eradicate diseases. fluoridated water systems help reduce tooth decay and cavities. Vaccines are good things. By all means let's have a top government official working against the use of vaccines and fluoridated water.

This cabinet would be a very bad joke, if it wasn't real and if it didn't endanger the lives of US citizens.

Shake it up

Got a nice message from Ally Sweeney the other day. Sorry I screened the call! They should be in the top 25 for both basketball and likeability.

I got a call from Katie Hill yesterday morning thanking me for my support of the women’s team. Really incredible to see them take the time to call and thank donors. I can’t wait to see them continue to play their way into the top 25

There will be great CAA games this weekend. Hampton beats Albany and Villanova beats Delaware.

William and Mary at Richmond
Hampton at UAlbany
Delaware at Villanova
Monmouth at Stony Brook
New Hampshire at Maine
Elon at North Carolina A&T
Rhode Island at Bryant
Towson at Campbell

There is obviously a W&M person there to steal the trophy. How else does one account for the yellow and green vehicle parked beside the trophy. Theft is the #1 (only?) means of W&M getting the coveted trophy.

That's why all such vehicles at Oregon State are Kubota. Orange, not green and yellow duck colors. My family's three rival teams (UO, Colorado State, W&M) all wear green & gold.

Unfortunately, I missed the 2009 game in person. I had been diagnosed with swine flu and was instructed to be no closer than 15' from another person. Strange thing I felt no worse than a case of mild flu. I did consider going and sitting on Tribe side.

All time great game. Got to catch it home on break from school. Wish we could still generate atmospheres like this.

For me the 1998 game is what got me hooked on UR football. Before that I had only been to a handful of games (95 JMU homecoming was most memorable up until this point). But my dad (who hated sports and thought it was a waste) took me to the game and remember a packed house for the game where we just absolutely destroyed the Tribe behind RVA legend Jimmie Miles. Was so upset that the one time our family was out of town for thanksgiving it would be that were hosting a playoff game, got home to see the highlights and was disgusted we lost that game.

The 2008 game was also a classic. Another game I got to catch being home on break and remember walking out of that stadium thinking that was the highlight of the season....little did I know it was the beginning of IMO the most special run in Spider athletics history.

Siena +27 Xavier

Smart choice.

If you can't do the simple things well, how likely is it that you can do the more difficult well? This is what most concerns me.

Totally agree, plus I bet they throw deep on the first play from scrimmage.

pitch to Imoh/Mathis and an option pass.worry that we overplay Imoh/Mathis given emotion level.
