Richmond 78 IUPUI 70

[mojo-spider]

Count me among the fans that came into this season skeptical about our chances for a successful season...the Longwood disaster just reinforced my doubt, but St.Francis and tonight's win have reawakened my Spiders mojo...

the last two games have made it pretty easy to like this group of guys, particularly tonight they showed something some Spiders teams have lacked: mental toughness and passion...

the first 15 minutes of the game had all the hallmarks of recent years...deep clocks resulting in desperation shots, a five minute scoring drought, and little rebounding, but instead of folding we kept our composure played our game, came back and won going away...

obviously Gilyard was special...

if we play this way in Fort Meyers and as the season progresses we will be fun to watch and surprise some folks.

Good job Spiders!

Good job Spiders!

i think high ball screen with options is key now , maybe put in double high ball screen Coach also ? instead of magic spot offense,
now. I think it creats more opportunity for players

also we score on out of bounds too good signal, how many throw it back back in bounds this year how many scores or fouls on try, where is numbers man when i needed him? these are the signals for me for growing as team GOOD possession by GOOD possession

Let's tap the breaks a little, Satchmo.....

A 2-1 start including a win over a terrible St. Francis team....sounds familiar.....what could go wrong?

Right. If we somehow win a game in this tournament coming up, then I'll believe we are onto something.

BC and Wyoming are bad bad bad. Loyola has Final four hang over. Spiders will go 2 and 0 in Florida and Mooney and Queally will sip pina coladas on the beach while they celebrate Chris as our greatest coach ever. Team will have a bonfire and burn #FMM gear in the fire.
