“I just don't see him changing his style much, and as a result, don't see them making any more tourney runs”
Sounds familiar.

Do you really think it is that crazy to be anti Bennett and pro Mooney? Are Richmond and UVA the same? I know you guys want to say why can't and why shouldn't we be like a major, but who would be our coach if we fire Mooney? Would we get this sure thing NCAA dance guy who had a lot of previous dance succcess? UVA, with their resources and ACC status, and the fact that they are more a basketball school than a football school, would be an attractive job for pretty much anyone out there, and could get plenty of successful power conference coaches to coach there. What successful power conference coaches would leave to come to Richmond? So, yes, if you talk about firing someone, it's always important to ask who would you get to replace them.Ole Jer had us playing Xavier and Dayton and Temple in the 50s a bunch. The 40s in today's 3 point heavy world seems extreme. I haven't seen UVa to know if they're unwatchable, but in a vacuum the results he has posted seem a level ahead of Moon and the natty is like 10 levels up. So yeah, I don't understand the Fire Bennett crowd also supporting Moon, given the disparity in results. I understand the argument is he peaked and now is a 1st round upset waiting to happen, but how that argument - doesn't win enough in the NCAA since his peak - doesn't translate to UR as well is inconsistent. (btw I know the stats of the UR records since 2019, no need to rehash them yet again.)
