CBI Tournament- Championship
High Point vs Seattle- 5 PM (ESPN2)

CIT Tournament- Championship

Iowa State, Seattle, and Norfolk State are the only VCU opponents still playing (not including Utah). If Seattle and Norfolk State win tonight I'll be pretty happy.

And now he's done it for real.

I did not watch but about five Mason games and I wonder what others think of Hall. He filled the box score but seems like a "me" guy to me. Might not be a bad thing for the Patsies.

Watching one was more than enough. No opinion.

A quick glance on the Mason boards makes it sound like they feel the same way. Talks of his family booing Mason when he wasn't playing, him getting a second opinion for his injury at Patient first etc..

Just a mess all around.

 

[Ramdog]

Yeah, he's listed on Verbal Commits as a grad transfer. Grant Huffman's also in the portal for the same reason. I'd honestly love to have them both, but I expect both of them to get high-level offers.

So you want to take virtually half a starting group that went 5-13



Much much much better talent will be in the portal

 

[WillWeaverRVA]

That doesn't mean anything. Korey Billbury came over from an Oral Roberts team that started 5-8 against D1 teams in 2014-15 and was our third best scorer and rebounder in 2015-16. Issac Vann came from an 8-22 Maine team and averaged 10-11 points per game his first two seasons here and put up 30 points against St. John's (although he did regress in his last season).

Bad teams can still have good pieces.

 

[WillWeaverRVA]

This is pretty huge, especially considering Essamvous really came on late in the season. Had 14 and 11 points in the games against us.

 

[mrgeode]

I have no interest in Huffman whatsoever, but I agree with Will's point

Bonnies situation is looking a little rough.

We were on this guy back in the day. Yann?

 

[WillWeaverRVA]

I really do wonder how much their NIT fiasco affected this situation.

Yeah, the former Yann Farell. Offered in 2020.
