Son had a soccer game on Saturday, I had a game Sunday morning followed by VCU hoops in the afternoon, then daughter has volleyball games tonight and tomorrow night. God bless sports.

Thinking back about when Briante Weber was on the squad and how much of a cheat code he was because he could switch to guarding a 5 and opposing bigs wouldn’t call for the ball because he’d immediately pick their pocket. Never seen anything like it. Best defender I ever saw.

Tyrell Ward posted a team-high 18 points today on a ridiculous 92.2% true shooting percentage. Not gonna always shoot like that BUT, I think he is gonna be a KEY indicator of VCU’s success this year. I think he’s the purest scorer on this year’s team.

These Broncos uniforms are glorious. Makes me feel like a kid in the late 80s. Keep these.

Rams shot 73% inside arc, big upgrade from the game at Villanova. Coach said a part of that was he thought guys were trying to get fouled at Villanova as opposed to just trying to finish. Liked how he mentioned wanting to get more finishes via hard cuts. That’s great to hear.

Brandon Jennings, Mike Belle and Jadrian Tracey in the post-game pressed, which I think is fitting because those three dudes played hard as hell.

Good to see the defensive intensity pick up there at the end. Also love seeing Mike Belle have a great game.

Rams have A LOT to figure out and not much time to do it.

I feel like defensively our communication and hustle has a long way to go.

Like the ball movement and shot selection so far. Don’t like the transition defense.

LOVE that Joe Bamisile finished his career with a championship at VCU. GREAT dude and a great one to have around the program.

Expand the field AND make it so YOU HAVE TO HAVE A WINNING CONFERENCE RECORD (or hell, even .500 in conference) to be eligible.
NCAA President Charlie Baker says he’s in favor of expanding the NCAA Tournament to give an opportunity to ‘worthy teams’ Mentioned St. John’s, Seton Hall and Indiana State 2 years ago

What I learned about VCU in the B&G game: we are fast and athletic and full of potential. What I learned about VCU in the Nova exhibition: we don’t play good team hoops…yet. Record is still 0-0, so good to get exposed early, but man, gotta lock in and learn to play together.

Note: Coach’s Bryant squad finished 3rd in American East 2pt% offense last year, 2nd the senior before, so that’s good to see, especially because the majority of their points came via 2-point buckets last year (43rd nationally in 2-point distribution)

Rams shot 31.4% inside the arc. You have bad days from 3, it happens, but that number is one ya circle. Gotta do a better job of creating easy opportunities.
