  1. Big East next year for Saint Louis? Yay or nay and why. There's rumblings that VCU could be in the BE next year. Personally, I don't like it. SLU is a likely candidate to move I'm wondering how fans feel about the potential move.
  2. It's really just the name of Shaka's system. The media grabbed a hold of it after the Final Four run. It also works well for marketing. Gimmick or no gimmick you can't argue that the way VCU plays has led the country in steals and turnovers forced 4 years in a row. It works better on some teams just like any other gameplan. VCU is 11th in the A10 in FG% (awful) and 1st in PPG so the extra possessions benefit the team. I like watching "HAVOC" but I'd rather see us making it passed the 2nd round of the NCAA tournament. The teams that make it passed the 2nd round are teams that are good at handling the ball. That is a problem if your whole gameplan is to score off of turnovers. Havoc isn't perfect but it works most of the time.

  4. Not to be a d-ck but our place is louder and we have 3,000 less people.
  5. They have a fever and the only prescription is more compliments.
  6. We didnt win but our "gimmick" was affective. Good game SLU.
  7. This game is going to give me a heart attack.
  8. I know! I hate when they cram games back to back. .
  9. Why are your students wearing yellow? lol. They are doing it wrong.
  10. Eh, an SLU loss today wouldn't hurt you guys that bad. Might slide a few spots in the rankings but would still likely stay in the top 20....maybe even 15. Losses happen. 16 in a row isn't pretending. The voters are well aware of SLU.
  11. Yes, I make "mental handicap slurs" while sensitive people make handicap faces. Unless Knight is actually mentally handicapped it isn't a big deal. You don't have to like it and I don't have to see anything wrong with it. BTW, I'm not from Virginia either. VCU fans aren't all from Virginia.
  12. Bob Knight is a moron. Alzheimers really has that retard by the balls. It will be interesting to see what he has to say today lol.
  13. No doubt! Road games are hard enough in-conference. Playing against a great defense makes it that much harder. VCU has a tough task ahead, same for when SLU comes to Richmond. That being said, VCU is deeper this year. Last season we really missed Jordan Burgess and Mo Alie-Cox. I don't expect Evans to have a big game this time.
