Actually many people on the thread you're referring to said "we just lost to Jacksonville, this is concerning because we may not make the tournament, and if we don't we need to evaluate Rhoades at the end of the season. You're the one using revisionist history or have bad memory. Also, it's...

The good news: We beat Kim English every time we played GMU under his watch. The bad news: They were the sort of low-level team that helped contribute to us not being able to get an at-large this year after our challenging out-of-conference results. The whole "GMU sucks, haha!" thing is only...

So the A-10 is coming off a historically work year - not just by opinion but also by statistics (first year of no at larges since 2005) - and now we have one of the rising coaches of the conference leaving after two years despite not accomplishing much to anything yet at the school he was at...

That's a fair question - here's the answer. It's not just about the average Joe Shmoe in a sports bar in a random state. It's about the average medium sized business owner in the Richmond area who has no connections to VCU but might be interested in NIL deals with our players if we were...

Cheers to you sir! #RAMHEART

People on this forum realize that Shaka Smart continually losing in the first round of the early rounds of the NCAA Tournament is bad and leaves him with little respect nationally. Go look at social media last night - he got absolutely torched. Yet when someone tries to suggest that it's the...

It's definitely notable and concerning, but is it any wonder that we were out numbered in Albany New York when videos from the "team send-off" in Richmond appeared to show about 30-50 people tops coming out to send the team off? At a school that, just in students alone, has 30,000 plus people...

This is a fair take overall and so not to pick on you but if it's "a clash of styles," but the deciding outcome was talent, then was it really a clash of styles? Or did we just get beat in basketball, by a team that's better at basketball? My point is, sometimes we focus too much on "styles"...

We don't get to the NCAA Tournament without "Threebird," but just for the record as we evaluate how Rhoades' transfers did this season, our three-point "assassin" David Shriver had a combined six points in the A10 Tournament Final and NCAA Tournament. Hard to win games when that's the output of...

Now it's Furman and Farleigh Dickinson, and last year it was St. Peter's. Before that we had schools like Wofford and UMBC. Think about how many schools have made a name for themselves since 2016, the last time that VCU won an NCAA Tournament game. Nobody in America cared about these schools...

It's not due to a lack of trying from the players and staff, but really feel for the VCU students (players and non-players) who haven't gotten and in many cases never got to experience the joy of an NCAA Tournament win due to our now seven-year streak of not winning in the big dance. (Seven...

Interesting to see people say that what we can hope for next season is an improved seed and easier matchup than St Mary's, a fellow mid major team that most experts before the game predicted would lose to us. We'd have to improve very significantly to earn a seed that would play a "cupcake"...

2011: Final. FOUR! 2023: Remarkable that we qualified for the NCAA Tournament!

Some people always want to look at the glass half full and that's fine. It was a good season. Just keep in mind that the NCAA Tournament is our one chance every year to make many millions of people respect VCU basketball and VCU as a university and we haven't succeeded on that front since 2016...

Change this thread title to: "It's time to start talking about whether VCU fans will legitimately be happy with Mike Rhoades for life even if he never wins an NCAA Tournament game."

Anyone who wants to act like this wasn't a good season is crazy. Anyone who wants to act like this was a great season is also crazy. The haters and the butt-kissers both have ammo, and rightfully so. Mike Rhoades engineered a good regular season and A10 Tournament and once again came up...

VCU had a good season this year with a 27-8 record and an NCAA Tournament berth. Everyone involved deserves to be commended for a good season. But if you want to state that VCU had a great season, you're going to be in for a bit of a debate. VCU hasn't won an NCAA Tournament game since Barack...

Well done boys!!!!!

That makes sense, thank you!
