- Start date
Some really good football games on Saturday.
Yeah will be toggling between spiders game and fb while on Delta flying back to the RVA from Colorado
VMI really stinks. They have atrocious defense like W&M, but they can’t score like W&M. Either the Keydets are just what this team needs or we’re the team that the Keydets need to get a boost going into SoCon play.
Pretty sobering if you reverse the perspective here... ⬇️
Richmond really stinks. They have atrocious defense like W&M, but they can't score like W&M. Either the Spiders are just what this team needs or we're the team the Spiders need to get a boost going into A10 play.
If I had a smaller, quicker team than the Spiders, I would press and delay them getting into
their offense and see how long it takes the coach to adjust.

This might be the last game we are favored in for a long time. Losing to VMI and William and Mary in the same week, I wonder if any of the truthers perhaps don't send a Christmas card to Chris this year.
All true, unfortunately. Both defenses are atrocious ( Tribe 342 D efficiency and Richmond 207) and we can't score like them ( Tribe 93 O efficiency and Richmond 220).
Looks like that would be Acceptance, according to the Google machine.
Join the crowd.
I was stuck on number 2 for about 10-11 years, and occasionally slip back in there.

B. Artis going to be in a mummy wrap before year is done. I'll take over on B.Artis points for tomorrow. That's my bet.
Miami/Spiders would have been an epic game this year - wow the hurricanes are horrendous
We lose by 4Wow - one post today on game day. Lots of enthusiasm.I wonder why?
Spiders about 13 point favs. Not much respect for us.
Awful start but played much better last 8 minutes. Sloppy play by Hunt. Best minutes of the year for Tanner. Dusan can really fill it up.
Do we pull away and win by 20+ or are we in for a dog fight?

A 7 point win over VMI doesn’t portend strong things moving forward. Good thing it wasn’t Dayton or VCU tonight. Not sure a win is a win is a win.
This was my observation too. Hopefully he has turned the corner and can simply play basketball.
Uneven game overall - couldn't quite put them away, the inevitable foul of a 3 point shooter, middle school girls basketball for halftime entertainment, etc. Thankfulky Neskovic can score from all over the place or else this could've been a loss.
In other news, to add to the ever growing list of PR/media gaffes, I noticed Roche was spelled Roach on the banner when they introduced the starting lineups...

First game I’ve seen all season, this was a good take. Very uneven - VMI was not good, but we couldn’t pull away. Second half was just a terrible display of basketball all around. Game ops and crowd felt like one of those Wednesday- let’s give out free tickets to the old folks home game vs. a Saturday night game.
Not sure I’ve seen a backup guard (white) foul out in a game in 17 minutes before.
Is Hunt pressing? He has struggled lately and happy White is back and he may end up starting.
Tyne just does not seem focused today. Glad Mooney sat him in second half. Tanner looked
good and should see the court more. In a nutshell, right now I do not see this team having a winning
record this year.

VMI had two Division I wins all year, just like we did coming into this one, so I guess the final score is about what we should have expected. Davidson beat them by almost 30. Even GW beat them by 13. We're just a bad team. A win is a win, though, I guess.
Yeah im with you here. I had a lot of thoughts re: the William & Mary game the other night. Tonight I just found myself saying "we're just not a very good team" over and over again. Some good minutes from Tanner and Walz. I like Nescovic and AP's aggression... but we just look typically sloppy and ill prepared most of the time. I don't understand how Graham doesn't see more time and can we just get like five minutes/game from GWIII just to prove to everyone that he doesn't deserve to be out there? He went for warm up jersey off again tonight, but alas, it didn't matter.
