Things could turn disastrous really quick if they drop that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierPal Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 Richmond plays their game 1 (and game 2) at the Siegel. VCU plays their first game at the Siegel. That ain't right. Move VCU to Robbins. brianstl and Bay Area Billiken like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, we are finally firing on all cylinders (mostly any way) and if we're as good as we thought we'd be, we should be prepared to play anybody. Bring 'em on! Go Bills!

Imagine being St. Bonaventure and facing a likely path of Richmond and SLU to make the final. Or VCU needing to beat Dayton and Davidson. We have a very favorable draw. someoneelse, SLUMedBilliken15, dlarry and 1 other like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, SLU is the best team, has the best players and deepest roster in the A10. SLU also has a seasoned, battle tested coach. This A10 Tournament is SLU’s to win.

I see a great draw for the Bills. Dodging Dayton is big as they seem to own the Bills. Wouldn't be surprised to get St. Joe's as our first game, and they are dangerous with their star back, but it will be their third game of the tournament, so that could help. I should be more concerned about St. B, but their lack of bench really worked against them in the first meeting. May well again. Then, beating VCU in the finals with VCU having Bones Hyland on the court will be the toughest test. Making the finals probably assures a bid, probably.

Taj79 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I like the draw. It has its pitfalls as all do but if we face La Salle or St. Joe's, it will be their third game in three nights. If we face Umass, we have to guard against ove3rconfidence from last night's blowout. Again I don't put much stock in Bonaventure because they are still only a five-man team. Jaren English Holmes ended his regular season posting an 0-fer against Dayton. Osun is nothing on the offensive end. Bonaventure hasn't really done much against the usual big boys of the conference. I like it plus we avoid Dayton, Davidson and VCU until all but one of them is gone. I'd love to get Davidson at Dayton i the conference final. Really would. bauman and SLU_Nick like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I think the draw worked out about as well as possible for SLU. Sure, the A-10 has been a bit crazy with some upsets and we have shown that we can have a clunker performance, but IF we play our game, we will win the tournament. We are still the most talented, deepest team in this league. brianstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taj79 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Leading scorer Blake Francis went down with a back injury after a fall on a layup with 9:42 left in the first half. He went into the locker room at half an diced it. He tried going in the second half but could not. He finished with a goose egg in the score book. Additionally, Grant Golden continues with the cast on his middle left finger. He finished with six points and did not play coming down the stretch. The preseason #1 finished #8 in the league. I noted early on that any injury on this team would hurt immensely. They got that when they lost Nick Sherrod. Then Golden. Now Francis. SLU_Nick may be right ---- Richmond might really be dead.
