It sounds like Fall practice started late last week. Anyone have any first impressions of how things are going? I would especially enjoy hearing about the freshman and last year's red shirt freshman.

Now you have a clue.

Is there anything else you can share to help us get a clue? Based on the little info above Andre Gustavson is playing well. Did Matt Grace or Noah Yates play? Disappointed that Sal didn't get any points in the scrimmage, but it is still the 1st week.

Did we see Sal didn't score? Andre & Cayo 4, other 3 totaled eight and all less than 4? Perhaps Gilyard& Sherod 3? Sal 2?

Hope it wasn't a 40 minute scrimmage :D
Although that would be good news for our defense:D

While I have seen them play quite a bit, I prefer not to comment due to the negativity of this messageboard. Hope you understand. Go Spiders!
 
I see a lot of Sal and Andre in there. photographer might just have a man crush, though.

and while I know those quick cuts are popular in editing these days ... they give me a headache.

That's funny. because quick cuts by players relieve my headache...
 
What about the transfer who’s sitting out this year? He gets to practice too, right?
 
From JOC - https://www.richmond.com/sports/plu...cle_1ca825a7-5338-5427-aed9-15603f2d98e2.html


Tomas Verbinskis, a 6-7 redshirt freshman, has what Mooney termed “a small fracture in ankle.” Apart from that issue, Mooney described the Spiders’ health as “pretty good.”

Richmond is still working through the NCAA to secure a second season of eligibility for Noah Yates, a 6-5 graduate transfer from Yale. Yates played football at Yale before switching to basketball (two seasons). Mooney said he is confident that Yates will be granted a second season at UR.
 
Attended practice on Friday. Practiced working on defensive and offensive teamwork. Nothing resembling a scrimmage was held - so I can't really post anything yet on who I think will help us. Verbinskis is out with a foot or ankle issue; Yates was out with an ankle injury that doesn't appear too bad. The transfer who is sitting out was not practicing. All freshmen seem to run the floor well, with Wojcik looking like he has the best outside shot. Nobody with any sense would make a prediction at this time regarding how good or how bad we will be. I need to see our guys play against other teams in order to see what we can expect. And Friday's practice was just not the practice to see anything significant. I'll post something later in the week.

Thanks Stork, hopefully later in the week you will get a look at the guys in some scrimmage situations.
 
Does anybody have an update on how things are going with the freshman? I think this freshman class has a lot more talent than many people are giving it.
 
ok Coach has nice haircut , now I hope he shines up the ugly brown shoes, i think he lose some weight too ,but please throw away purple tie it is bad luck,or give it to the asst coach who always always always matches your purple tie.
What's up with him wearing purple, a Dillweed color?
