Thank God this Nightmare is over

[whamilton19]

Just happy the season is coming to an end. This has been a terrible season and I’m happy it’s just coming to an end. Nothing good from this season stands out, just a couple of close losses and that’s pretty much it. Definitely one of our worst seasons in a while. We need to move to the Big South

Don’t worry we won the Super Bowl today. Against a mediocre George mason

No we didn’t 😂

 

[Gospiders06]

A total collapse at the end. I forgot we can’t finish

 

[I-M-UR]

It’s time to move on from the losingest coach in Spider history

 

[MooreHall73]

No we do not need to move to the Big South, we need to complete more effectively in the A-10. If facilities are not the issue, ( Robin's Center and a brand new practice facility) and academics aren't the issue, we need to address the issue(s) whatever they are and adjust.

 

[72Spider]

Time for the AD to have a Hardt to Heart discussion with Mooney. Not!!!

If you want to keep being losers in the a10, be my guest. Only way we compete year after year is in the Big South. Not to mention Mooney isn’t going anywhere

Guys, a bunch of schoolkids got a free afternoon of entertainment and a few bus loads of seniors got a break from Scrabble for a couple hours.

Just be happy about that. It's really all we can do.

This is why we are where we are. People just accept losing

 

[SpiderK]

But Mooney is the Dean of the A-10

By that logic we should have just stayed in the CAA and had all the success of a William and Mary or a UNCW.

We would have made the tournament 8 times instead of 3

We moved for at large bids. In the Mooney era we've only gotten 1. Just 1 !!!!!!

 

[ManiBenton]

Yes, we should've stayed. We are a joke in the A10, nobody fears Mooney or the Spiders with good reasoning. Until Mooney is gone, the we will not compete in the A10

 

[SpiderK]

Only 40 more minutes to go.

 

[ManiBenton]

What a time to be a Spider am I right?!?!?!?!? Gotta love losing 17 games! But hey, the future is bright thanks to our bright head coach Chris Mooney. Thank God he'll save us all!!!!!!

 

[Anachnid]

Only one person can end this nightmare…or it continues.

 

[8legs1dream]

we will lick our wounds in the offseason and be ready to get some revenge on William & Mary next season 🙏

You clearly meant this for the football board.

 

[SpiderK]

It’s been kind of nice not hearing “Richmond loses again” on WRVA every other morning.

instead we hear "VCU wins again"

Well it was a double whammy, now it’s just one punch in the face. Hopefully that will be over Friday.

 

[gcarter52]

I wish that all the trolls would find a new team to follow. Negativity begets negativity! We need to stop torpedoing our chances for reviving our program.

 

[spider23]

This board is the solution, unfortunately those with the power own the problem and don't understand.

you know who else has done a pretty good job torpedoing our chances at reviving the program for quite a few years?

Yes but two wrongs don’t make a right!

if Richmond cared about their program, there wouldn't be as much negativity.

 

[Not-A-Homer]

You certainly have a point about negativity, but, that is not what is keeping the UR basketball program down. Team/program wins, negativity immediately goes away.

You win by hiring a good coach who runs a good program. When you keep a mediocre to poor (record is all one needs to know if they don't understand the intricacies of the game) coach in place for 18 + years, the fault is squarely on the shoulders of the decision-makers.

 

[ManiBenton]

Yep, we screwed

 

[SFspidur]

Not sure why JOC tweeted that today. Those quotes are from the Hardt article from last week.

 

[8legs1dream]

take the top 3 or 4 teams in the league (of which we are nowhere close to being one) and they could play with anybody in the country!

cant beat Mason in 3 tries, but we can beat anyone else

 

[SFspidur]

We can compete at least...

 

[Eight Legger]

Like John, I too am very confident that any of the top 4 teams in the conference could successfully play a 40-minute game against any other team in the country without forfeiting.

I bet we could stretch that list down to the top 5 or 6 that wouldn’t forfeit the game.

I’ve been a Spider fan since my freshman year many years ago. I have way more confidence in A10 basketball than that of UR moving forward. Once Hardt and CM are gone, my optimism in our basketball program will return.

Regarding the discussion on negativity some of you have been discussing. Unfortunately sometimes negativity and reality align. We are at that point in our program. Once changes in our program finally come about, positivity and reality can then hopefully align. We have a long way to go.

whether one is positive or negative, everyone thinks their opinion mirrors reality.

 

[urmite]

Actually reality mirrors my opinion, so I'd like to apologize for sports and the world in general the last decade...
