Roussell has some work to do

He’s in Chicago recruiting. He’s watching my daughter’s team right now. Kind of funny. I think there is a big on the team they are playing that is division 1 talent. While my daughter is a shooter, she’s not d 1 😂

Class of 2026 Erica Gribble is ranked #80 in the country on espn class of 2026 rankings. I believe this is the highest ranked recruit ever for women’s basketball and 2nd recruit to be in ESPN top 100 (the other is Elaina Chapman ranked #100 class of 2019). A program continuing to be on the rise!

I see Sanai Green on there at #23. She was a local kid at Steward lighting things up even as a frosh, and Vol said he'd heard from someone in the know that she was a quiet commit to us way back then. That didn't end up panning out, unfortunately. She moved to Long Island last year and missed a bunch of time with a knee injury, and committed to Duke last month.

Moral of the story: Never trust SpiderVol.
 
Looks like Roussell is holed up in Mooney's barn office! Where the heck is this?
I don't if this helps clarify or just confuses reality even more.

I feel like they missed something with that design. It's a weird office. Good attempt at incorporating new with old, but functionally it looks off. Maybe that can be the excuse if we suck again this year.

I think it's the Richmond Basketball text on the upward facing angled surface. It makes everything look askew. Otherwise it would just be an angled metal truss and paneled "ceiling" surface.

Everything else in that area is curving down to follow the building, but then the text is perpendicular to that and therefore facing upward. That beam or whatever that the text is on needed a covering to create a vertical surface, or else just left plain with no text.
 
I remember having fraternity brothers who had better decor in their off
campus places. This looks terrible. Maybe the furniture is on order.
Seeing the A10 trophies in his office reminded me of the plans (unfulfilled so far) for the Robins Center to have an atrium filled with photos, trophies, etc. honoring Spider basketball. Those trophies should be on display, not sitting in a coach's office.
 
New women’s basketball transfer, Skylah Travis, posted about spider nil collective. Hope this is a sign that our women’s team is also getting a share from the NIL Spiders Collective AND will be getting house settlement funds. If our women’s team is getting NIL money, I wonder if there is a way to donate specifically to the women’s team or if it’s all pooled out of one big collection.

The desk is strange too. Is that his main desk? It looks like a card table that he could fold up and stash in the closet.
 
Maggie unfortunately did not make the Americup final roster. Still, was a great honor to be invited to the trials and must have been a great experience.
