St. Joe's and St. Louis have recovered nicely from their dismissal of esteemed coaches. I never thought St Joe's would recover from firing Phil Martelli.

Isn't a better (and more likely to be successful) approach to convince him to step down? It's evident he doesn't like the status quo of college basketball, and this board has already suggested he could follow Tony Bennett and Jay Wright because of the changes in the sport. So maybe someone should suggest that he take a break for a few years. Surely we can find or create a different position for him if he doesn't want to leave the university or the city.
He's made $25 million coaching this team. He could sit naked by his pool for the rest of his life while maids feed him chocolate eclairs if he wants to.
We've been on strike since 2019. Unfortunately I think Matt Smith found new fans to take our place.
Whenever I see that guy on TV it really irritates me. He is part of the culture of losing and Mooney leaching.
950 is VCU's station so they like us quite well in the place we are in. The other sports radio which broadcast our games is 106.1 and they employ Bob Black, so no one is going contradict the resident "expert" on all things UR at that station.
And yes, the "Extend Mooney" from VCU fans billboard would be a first rate troll job.
Sorry 106.1 used to be WXGI 950 so I have always still referred to it as that.
VCU is AM 910 and that station is a joke, but I will say MP on the Mic is a pretty listenable show when they aren't fellating VCU. The guy who comes on after him sounds like he has a punchable face.
I don't even think VCU fans would stoop to that. First off, never interrupt your enemy in the middle of making a mistake, second I think they legit are over us as a rival since we don't bring much to the table and have done virtually nothing to derail their success the past 20 seasons save the A10 tourney run. Off record I've spoken with several Lambs that wouldnt mind us being competitive. Look at how few Ram fans come over here and troll compared to 10 years ago. Part of that is they're not a rock star program like they were, but another reason is I think there is a faction within that base who would like to have someone to hate and are a threat.

So that isn’t the best time to take a timeout?
If VCU fans put up an "Extend Mooney" billboard, that would put Hardt in a no-win situation. If he extends Mooney it will look like he's giving in to (or agreeing with) VCU fans. If he doesn't extend Mooney....... that's an interesting idea
