Toledo vs. Spiders in game

[spider23]

Agree, Want to see Wilson get another game this year.

 

[RESRam]

74-65 St. Bonaventure.

I wasn’t trying to troll. Was a legitimate question. But I’ll remember your response.

No matter how this game turns out, one thing this shows me is that there is really no excuse for how little we played our bench. Multiple guys who don’t play much at all look like they could have been contributors. And imagine where they’d be had they been developed some before now with some non-garbage time playing time.

 

[PhillySpider]

I’d certainly come back with Sal down the stretch here

 

[PhillySpider]

Don’t like the Mooney stall there. Run the offense

Did you not know the score cause you were watching another game? 😁 (it’s on the deuce...)

Completely agree. He is such a bad coach in so many aspects. Let these other kids contribute and maybe our starters don't collapse down the stretch of several games and the season.

Also, I know Francis was our leading scorer but he was so selfish I feel like he lost us more games than he won us. I like watching us without him more than with him, no matter the results.

Agreed. I think we have talent on the bench. Mooney just hasn’t given burn to them consistently. Part of that is Gilyard and Francis deserve loads of minutes, but looks like these guys could’ve contributed more this year if given the chance.

Was that kuliju, that was funny, I like our walk ons.

Yes that was Sullivan. It was classic. I am sure he will be scolded for having fun.

[DTSpider]

NIT victory...I smell an extension coming

 

[PhillySpider]

Sal and Grace with 16 pts and 4 rebounds. They are exactly l8ke GG !

 

[spider23]

Love it from Sullivan. Agree, playing the bench would have had a multitude of positives throughout the season.

Lifetime contract. I mean come on we were without guys, had a comeback, the young guys looked good . Next year is sure to our year !

 

[PhillySpider]

Sal should be in there

 

[SFspidur]

Good grief, guys.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

I want to see Grace lay out a Tomahawk Jam

 

[PhillySpider]

I mean we have fouled them 4 times in the last three trips while nursing a lead. That’s just so dumb. And most of it seniors

 

[PhillySpider]

There you Go. Mooneys been saving timeouts for that spot right there. For 11 years he saved them for that. But then couldn’t bet the ball in!

 

[SFspidur]

There you. Mooneys been saving timeouts for that spot right there

He should have about 43 in his pocket at this point in the season.

 

[DTSpider]

The 5 second violation...ugh

 

[GKiller]

It was good to see a team not named the Spiders struggle to hit a bucket for a long drought (basically the entire 2nd half). Good lord they couldn't buy one. This game doesn't move the needle, there is less interest in any postseason game for Spids than I can ever remember, but you can take some positives out of it individually.

 

[I-M-UR]

The pr firm pushing Mooney excuses has earned their money tonight

 

[nathanw19]

Call from Richmond asking for money during the game?!?! Are you kidding me? Don’t bother me during the game!

 

[SouthJerseySpiderFan]

What a gutsy performance by the team! Toledo couldn't get enough good 3PT looks. UR got inside baskets and got to the line in the 2nd half. Toledo lacks a true PG.

 

[MolivaManiac]

Good effort by the Spiders. Happy for Matt Grace, who i always feel gets a bit too much criticism here.

Nice to see the kids on the bench having some fun.

 

[Vcewe]

Good win for the Spiders with two starters out (not counting Nick).

 

[URWilk110]

2nd best win of the season. Yes, better than the UK win

 

[spider23]

Nice 2nd half. Liked to see the guys have some fun and get a w.

 

[SpiderK]

Awesome!! Glad I was wrong. Who knew Toledo was so bad

 

[Ferrum Spider]

The 1972 Richmond Spiders football team thanks you.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Nice surprise tonight. The kids have heart.

 

[SFspidur]

Another Q2 win…might be enough to get us an NCAA bid.

 

[SpiderK]

Good effort by the Spiders. Happy for Matt Grace, who i always feel gets a bit too much criticism here.

Lol, Matt is still terrible, but played a nice 20 minutes and helped his team win. Good for him.

 

[97spiderfan]

Impressive effort in that second half. Damn if Grace didn't save his best for postseason. Loved seeing our guys smile at the end.

 

[SpiderK]

Elite 8 !!!!

 

[urmite]

At least, he didn’t have a noodle arm... 😁

 

[Spider B]

Well done Spiders.

 

[spiders13]

Grace must’ve seen this board at half time 😂. Came to play in second half.

 

[spider23]

LOL, my 83 YO mom just texted me about the big win. I think the last time she texted me about a game it was about a good game in which we lost to JMU by 6. This is exactly what is wrong with Mooney and Hardt, college basketball fans hardly know we exist anymore. My mom had no idea we have sucked for so long, too funny.
