La Salle Explorers - 2:30 PM Saturday

The defense is just not very good. Giving up 57.1 from 2 and 52.9 from 3, outrebounded by 5 today.

Bad showing on O not gonna help cover that.

So tired of this nonsense.
 
And there it goes...great prediction Mooney lovers, some great halftime adjustments by moondog. Not even the best free throw game in school history could save us from losing against a crappy team AT HOME
My prediction...ZERO chance at post season, not even CBI

How are the Spiders ever expected to win when the Spiders take one shot per possession? No one ever goes to the offensive board when the ball goes up. But that is by the UR offensive design. I’ve been sick of this for years. The three point defense was also weak. Well, taller guards will get shots over smaller defenders.

17 years now, we do NOT rebound.

I agree Rick. No bench, be rebounding and no defense. All Mooney trademarks.
 
Will someone that VT4700 doesn't have on ignore please pass this on....

"VT, please join us for the live in-game thread. Your encyclopedic knowledge of Spider stats and keen attention to game details others miss on the broadcast would be a great addition. It will also be a welcome diversion from all the complaining about the refs, or the panic the first time LaSalle goes on a 6 point run."
This guy is either Mooney's ehhhr friend, or good chance part of the staff. He never posts during game or when team is on a plane.

Once again, the only way UR is getting into the NCAA tournament is to win the A-10 tournament, which may or may not even happen.

An opponent with no player averaging double digits in scoring and 6 players hit double digits today. I wonder how that can happen.

Sure this game came after a pause, but this same type of game has been seen before this season.

CM did prepare for this game. The performance in the game was foretold in the pre-game press conference. The players had to stay in hotel rooms “doing nothing”during the pause. It was impossible to be ready to play.

Despite the odds, the team managed to go 24 for 24 from the charity stripe. Truly amazing.
 
I’m on a few text chains and EVERYONE sees the bitching by the players to the refs. I hate to say it but we’ve become a little unlikable. Never thought I’d say that about my Spids. But I put on Mooney. Has us so passive & some of the guys r clearly playing w pressure from not meeting expectations and all the hype we got preseason that is long gone. Those casual UR fans long gone now too.

It’s too bad the players have to play w Mooney’s burden. That’s just another reason why u have to make a change sometimes.
 
I have been saying all year, our defense is just out there trying to stay in front of people. No one is uncomfortable against us. Watched SDSU last night, they are having a bit of a down season and ton of injuries like us. But damn , they work there ass off on D. Its really night and day.

Missed most of the game to go to a funeral today. In parking lot afterwards and see a guy haven't seen in 10 years, took him to a URi richmond game 12 years ago. After pleasantries he mentions how Spiders looked so good early in the season and fading now. I said I know I know.
