Future Guests on Spiders Sound Off

Who do you folks want to see us interview on a future episode of Spiders Sound Off. I can't promise we can get them, but we can try.
 
I figured it would be a passionate thread. Looking for ideas that I can implement, but I am not upset if people choose to vent. We all want to win, and many people are frustrated, so I get it.
 
Maybe whomever owns the Robins Center facility/game experience - might not be a full interview I realize but would be interesting to understand what constraints they are facing and/or changes they are planning in future years.
I agree with this one. Maybe you will have a good opportunity after the Mason game this week as there is actually a half time show. The first of the year.
 
I think you should also try to get Mike Walz on the show as a representative for the Men’s program. I just don’t want you to ask about his golf handicap.

He is a 4 year Spider and it would be interesting to hear his story on why Richmond and what he sees for the future of Spiders basketball. How has NIL changed things? Why does he think there is less student support?
 
students. any 2. find a couple of them at a game and ask them about student support, why they attend when others do not, what the feeling on campus is, etc.

We had the thread here but obvs no one in admin cares what gets discussed here, you have a bigger platform to help address a significant issue the program has at present and perhaps someone will take note. (while I agree with the game experience suggestions, the student support is a bigger deal IMO.)

after the game at VCU, I talked with two current students who made the effort to also get to the game while we both were waiting for Uber on an icy west board sidewalk. Think they are in one of the 1st rows most games at RC as well - not sure if they would be interested/willing but would be good to get their perspective.
 
I know you guys are in a precarious situation, but would love to get someone with some clout (former player, Ukrops or other donor, etc) that would share an opposing view of the state of the program. Walz, Hardt, Mooney, PQ - we know what they are going to say.
Yes, 23. This is who I would like to see. It needs to be someone who wants change, can articulate it well and has some amount of clout within the UR world. Problem is I don't know who that person would be. I think the majority of the fanbase wants Mooney gone but unfortunately, there is no leader for this group as I see it.

Good idea. How are mobile recording capabilities? Maybe you can get some pre-game commentary “word on the street” style.
