Rich -1.5

Has anyone else thought about the fact that the best player from Richmond in the a10 plays for SLU?

I've always laughed that GJ escaped both Richmond AND VCU and came all the way to St Louis.   Guess Richmond sucks to live in, darn.

i just know that quarley has a cousin or something that lives in richmond and you guys just turned that guy loose now.  (shaking my head)

It is really a shame. This game was supposed to be the biggest Non-P6 game of the season. Too bad Richmond is as bad as they are (and we just lost to a team that lost to Fordham)

turn the frown upside. right now. no excuses. lets get this W

I was okay with the Covid excuse for the first game back but that is over.   

We need to run them out of the gym just like last year.  I want Perkins/Jimerson bombing 3s early in the shot clock and have everyone crash the glass.  

 

[slu72]

I want to see 15 point runs at least 3 of them led by Gibby and Perkins hitting wide open catch and shoot 3s!!!!!

Didn’t Gibson go to high school in Florida? 
 

must win game or were out of an at large consideration. Covid ruined this team

Just for Prep school.

If only there were some way to know.

There's also a Richmond Times-Dispatch article about his homecoming game tonight. Regarding his recruitment:

“We liked him. We talked to him. We recruited him,” Mooney said.

 

Jimerson unofficially visited Richmond and VCU. “I would have considered staying home, but I think there was that aspect that I wanted to visit other places and maybe get away a little bit, and that played into it,” he said.

Jimerson made an official visit to Saint Louis, and committed after it.

“I was really confident in my decision at Saint Louis, and the coaching staff here,” Jimerson said. “I made that decision, and I’m really glad I did.”

Good reminder that every recruit is different. They don't all want to stay home.

geez, thanks I guess...

[wgstl]

I cant help but to laugh at this point. 

[JettFlight5]

Oh feces...I'm irrationally worried about this being a very bad thing for the rest of this season. 

[White Pelican]

Guess I'll watch the women play up at Olean this afternoon. Hope they can find a sober bus driver at Happy Hour on a Friday.

[wgstl]

I guess I have a poor understanding of covid, but don't we have like 10 players and a head coach who can play since they recently tested positive?

[Westy03]

This might end our season. I believe The St. Louis protocol is that we have to pause activities for 14 days if there is a positive test

I don’t think it’s irrational at all.

Look what the women’s team went through.

I would go as far to say as this could cripple the rest of the season.

[White Pelican]

Yeah, looks like they won't play until well into February now. This season could be lost.

That’s my thought too. 
Hopefully this is just a precaution.

even if a 14 day pause is required, we would still have enough games after coming out, but would likely need to win A10 tournament.
