    Jaden Daughtry - Transfer Commit - 2 years of Eligibility

    First and foremost, again hoping for the best for Jaden, that this issue does not impact his ability to play hoops, and most importantly does not affect his ability to just live his life. Of course right now hoops is a huge part of that. So really pulling for him that this is just a blip that...

    2025–26 Spider men's basketball schedule

    I see they are playing UC Irvine. Seems like, other than the travel distance, that would be a mutually beneficial opponent for Richmond. I have seen in the past that Curtis Blair officiated a practice of ours, so obviously some type of relationship with moon. And Curtis was HS teammates with...

    2025–26 Spider men's basketball schedule

    Took a peak at Furman board, looks like our "small" lineup could be put to the "tall" test right away. One predicted starting lineup up for Furman goes 6'4, 6'7, 6'7, 6'11, 6'11.

    Jaden Daughtry - Transfer Commit - 2 years of Eligibility

    Wishing him the best. Hopefully he is cleared and this ends up being OK. Scary thing. I remember hearing about Bronny, was lucky the USC staff reacted so quickly.

    25-26 Roster Expectations

    97 - I understand your point - everything is harder when you don't have good teammates. But on the flip side, I don't think anyone was double teaming or loading up on Tyne. And Mooney gives his PG's freedom. I think a KA, Gilly, even SDJ would have scored a ton on last year's team. Tyne did...

    25-26 Roster Expectations

    AP - I thought he looked decent when he had the ball in the high post a bit. But the 5 spot is pretty full. I don't see any evidence that points to him being a good 3 point shooter in games. Again, hoping to be proven wrong. And missing most of the offseason is certainly not going to help...

    AJ Lopez - Transfer Commit - 1 year of eligibility

    post some highlights that previously posted on reddit board: A lot to like about this guy. One thing I found funny - we know he put up good numbers vs Richmond, but had season high in 3 point attempts and makes vs us. boy our D was bad last season. Hoping it improves this season. Watched...

    Around the A10

    I'm sure getting Curry involved and vested helps a ton. And Bonnies have Woj. And who does VCU have. No one like that, but they have expectations and don't have excuses. I'm sure Steph Curry is every bit if not more busy then Kenny Atkinson, but my guess is sleepy Hardt and moon have not...

    25-26 Roster Expectations

    This line up is how I am leaning now as well. I think McGlothin will get minutes, I am hoping he pops, but seems like he will need that year adjustment to the speed of the game. Really really think moon playing slow game with him and JROB hurts us this season. I know defense is not all that...

    25-26 Roster Expectations

    Saw an interesting quoute from Rick Pitino this morning. Now, I get it , Rick has been a guy of questionable character and morals. But as a hoops coach he is one of the best, and has always been forward thinking. I recall playing HS hoops when the 3 point line was implemented in Virginia - I...

    Welcome to the new SpiderNation!

    Well, I can get to vcu's board at work, but get DNS blocked for this forum. I can submit a request to have it reviewed. I guess my rationale would be something like: I have to spend twice as much time reading and writing replies on my phone than if I was able to do so on my laptop :)

    2025–26 Spider men's basketball schedule

    That is the infuriating thing with Mooney and Hardt. They are able to control the narrative by only taking softball questions in the media and only doing media with vetted sources. I think our podcast duo is doing a tremendous job, getting ready to give the new episode a listen now. But...

    2025–26 Spider men's basketball schedule

    Welcome back LI. I am actually liking the new NIL era so far. Yes the $'s are crazy. But the key like any changes if to have a coach and program that can adapt. Mooney appears to be a bit behind the times so far. Last season the portal grab was a lot of ill fitting pieces and last minute...
