According to this tracker, Richmond doesn’t add any transfers this year, which is surprising to me. Also only had one player transfer out, Trent Grainger a Grad student FO player.

If there is any silver lining in this really bad schedule is that Furman should be the best of those 3 teams for us NET wise. Next would be to play Illinois State, ideally after beating Furman.
Haven’t looked too closely at others, but I imagine us being a bus ride instead of plane ride plays a role in that. Plus, the real money is in SEC/BIG10 and not ACC. Probably those 2 reasons is my guess.
Slow and steady we’re rebuilding our community. Glad to see people still finding this forum. A google search for “Richmond spider forum” now shows this site on the first page which is great. Between posting about this on Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, the Spider Podcast, and now front page Google...
Great listen today! Agree that we will need others to step outside the big 3. I think Dewey, Simon, Richard, Newell will step up. Also, I have no doubt that a freshman will become an impactful contributor too. My anticipated starting line up.
1 - Sweney
2 - UllStrom
3 - Simon
4 - Doogan
5 - Dewey
