Nice!!!!! Be sure to make some contacts while you're down there. Don't let them know you won the tickets. Give off a distinct impression that you've donated dozens of thousands of dollars to earn that courtside seat. COGS

If Rennegarbe, Dumas, or Gattis are reffing this game, make sure you are nice to them while sitting in those fancy seats. Remember what happened last time......

When havoc doesn't create havoc: http://collegebasketballtalk.nbcsports.c...l-program/

Quote:The other issue with VCU’s ineffectiveness in the press is that they just simply are not a good defensive team in the half court. They get beaten off the dribble too easily, they were late on their rotations for much of the second half, there are no shot blockers around the rim to eliminate defensive mistakes. If you break that press, more than likely you’ll end up with a good shot on that possession.

Can Freeman and our guards step up?

Great article. Now that is some real vcu branding. I hope our guards can step up amd everybody can make their free throws.

He ran the Richmond 1/2 Marathon recently and is now slimmer and trimmer...

Also expecting his first kid next year. I can't make fun of anyone as passionate as he is about his college sports teams. Be nice if ODU had a bunch of people like him to fire the fans/students up!

Hey !!! Wait a damn minute !!!

Us Monarch fans have known this since we schooled them in the CAA tournament in 2010. But , the writer is correct in that you have to have solid back court play or they will make you pay. I think Coach Jones will have his team ready for their style. VCU is good and their coach is good at teaching one style of play but he can't (or chooses not to) make adjustments when his style is not working. Let's hope we make them pay on Saturday.

I hope Coach Jones has our young men ready to play. After watching the Monarchs struggle against the LSU press and turn the ball over so often in the second half, when LSU made their run, I am a little concerned.

Coach Jones had us ready last year. We just ran out of steam during the 2nd half. Hopefully, our improved depth gets us the win (and home court).

RE: Game #6: Virginia Commonwealth University
I think we have a chance to win this one with a focused effort. I have watched VCU 3 times now, and they do not look that overwhelming at this point. They are a little offensively challenged right now compared to their previous teams. If we can compete with them on the glass, and take care of the basketball, while shooting like we are capable of shooting, I think we win this one.

The challenges on offense negates the effectiveness of their press. You can't press if you aren't making baskets.

If we can establish our defensive sets and not allow them the easy shots, we will set ourselves up for success. If they are hitting from outside, so be it. Not much we can do there.

I think it's on channel 11.

I think the rams will harass trey from the time he wakes up until he leaves the TED!

He was so amazing at the P-Jam. He and his parents are just great people. The kid is the whole package. I just hope he can weather the storm. God, I wish we had him as a freshman!

We had 9 total turnovers. 6 in the second half: Arledge had 2, Ross, Baker, and Bacote all had 1 & the team had one (most likely a jump ball that caused us to lose possession).

I don't think turnovers were an issue and considering neither PG had one in the second half (freeman had 1 for the game; played about 30+ mins and Palmore had 0 played 20+ mins)

I agree they will harass Trey but he should score about 30 points when it is all said in done due to vcu sending him to the free throw line. ODU win = Don't turn the ball over + Make your free throws.

However we were extremely sloppy with the ball against Illinois State. I love Richard Ross but he turned the ball over on the first 3 times we came down the court and that was just the beginning of the backslide.
