Game Thread - Southern Virginia (D3) @ RC - Wed 11/5 7pm - ESPN+

[SFspidur]

La Salle up 23–4 on Coppin State. Can we do better than that against a D-III team picked near the bottom of their conference?

I wouldn't bet on it with real money!

Longer than normal and clearly friendly meet and greet between Mooney and their coach pre game

 

[Section9_RowD]

Southern VA appears to have like 17 players in uniform

Make that 19 - a few of which seem to have been on long missions and may be 25+

 

[Section9_RowD]

Same starting lineup as JMU with the 4 guards and Big Mike

 

[SFspidur]

WE'RE LOSING

Same starting lineup as JMU with the 4 guards and Big Mike

Yes. I am not a fan of this lineup. Also, look worse against an inferior team. Yuck.

Why can we not shoot threes?

Mooney recruits.

 

[Section9_RowD]

Nice Aiden A pass to Beagle for layup and one prior to first tv timeout - only highlight so far

 

[Spider2020]

Argabright is a player

 

[MDSpider8]

Already love Argabright. Kid is playing with no fear.

 

[fan2011]

Aiden is a Bright spot so far

Is this the first time in recent history where the student section is basically empty for a men’s basketball home opener? In all my years following Richmond basketball as a student and alum there were always at least 2 home games that would always be full and that was the home opener and VCU.

Late arriving but three rows filled and standing on student section closest to me and some on other side - better than expected to me tonight

So everything about this game so far looks to me like 2 D3 teams going at it. Good news though is since S VA is picked to finish 7th in their league, I think we could be competitive to win the league!

 

[Section9_RowD]

Sign red #3 who may be 5'5 up for next year - quality short man
