Game Thread - Bonnie at RC - Sat 2/21 6pm ESPN+

[Section9_RowD]

The battle of 2 of the 3 most disappointing A10 teams of the season will be on Saturday night. Bonnie is 3-10 in the A10 and have lost 4 of 5.

Expect it to be a close game .. no score projection.

Kenpom has us winning this one 78-74. I think probably right. Woj and Schmidt confiscate the Bonnie players phones 48 hours before the game. Players are so mad they pull out their burners and hammer the under and Richmond money line.

I wonder what the crowd is going to look like? The VCU game was 2/3 full and that seemed to deflate whatever small appetite our fanbase had for this team. I suspect we have less than a half full building, probably less than 50 students at the game. On senior night. Hoping Hardt and PQ have front row seats to the sad spectacle it will be.

We've never needed Schmidt more than we do on Saturday. Come on, Mark, coach like your life depends on it.

I watched women's curling last night instead of the Davidson game. that's where I'm at.
I'll probably watch bobsledding instead of the SBU game.

I was watching it off and on sman while working on something around the house. There was a minute left and got distracted. 1/2 hour later I was like let me check the score, predicting the L in my head.

Didn't watch was following on the ESPN app. When I saw we had the ball with a chance to win or tie the game at the end, I knew an L was momentarily forthcoming.

It is a "white out" game so you can expect the Spiders to wear the red unis for one. /s

I would think we get around 4K in the building which is just over 50%. Figure I may as well be there because I am going to be counted even if I don't go.

Didn't watch either. Which is really amazing because every year optimistic me always had hope we could find some late season magic and make a run in the A-10 tourney........until the last 2 seasons. Sigh.

They should do a Blue out game and it would look totally full or totally empty.

Bobsledding rocks. I wish I was a slider.

I kinda hope we lose. Just to show the momentum isn’t heading the right direction

Crazy town that Mooney has created. Much more excited for this SLU / VCU game tonight than any of our games. Next game that will be of interest will be our first round A10 tourney game.

Who will that be of interest to?

To the coach of the team playing us most likely

If we go 2-2 to finish out Mooney, Hardt and company will try to convince us that we are peaking at the right time. Ignore that we just lost 8 of 9 in the heart of the conference schedule and are playing in the pillow fight games in our conference tourney.

I hope we can losing though, we have to deny them any and I mean any attempt at trying to put lipstick on this pig. These games are all meaningless and Mooney just keeps speaking that effort is all that matters anyway, so hell as long as we put together a good 20 minutes in these games, our coach will be satisfied.

Nothing like announcing your "White Out" game to social media less than 24 hours before tipoff!

We've had several "blew out" games.

I’ve certainly been feeling blue seeing what our program has become.
