A player-by-player breakdown of what VCU loses next season [INSIDER] - VCU will look a lot different next season. Starting at the top, VCU will replace Will Wade’s “paintball” style and lineup with a Mike Rhoades system and roster perhaps more suited to a little more fun-n-gun than we’ve become accustomed to the last two years, a system that may look a lot more similar to the …
Rams secure Senior Day win against Patriots, 72-60 - VCU improved to 24-7 overall on the year and 14-4 in conference play after defeating the Patriots of visiting George Mason University, 72-60. Jordan Burgess wasted no time in getting the Rams rolling on Senior Day at the Stuart C. Siegel Center. Scoring 9 points, while grabbing 3 rebounds and 1 steal before the first media …
Game Preview: VCU v George Mason [INSIDER] - Today I write my game preview like a proud parent sending his kids off to college. After four seasons at VCU (and five years for both Mo Alie-Cox and Jordan Burgess following NCAA eligibility issues), this will hopefully be the last Siegel Center home game for five VCU seniors. I say hopefully of course because …
A tribute to Gene and Honey Hunt, from Torey Burston - Torey Burston wrote the names “Honey” and “Gene” on a tape job on his right wrist for the Black and Gold Game on Saturday. If you looked closely last season, you may have seen a pair of sneakers with those same names etched on the soles in Sharpie. They aren’t just friends or family, these are …
Ticket guide: Ranking VCU’s 10 best home games this upcoming season - VCU will host 16 opponents within the friendly confines of the Stuart C. Siegel Center this season, a number that includes the Rams Nov 4 exhibition opener. Some of those games will come with steep tickets prices, some will come as serious value tickets that you should scoop up early from less educated hoop fans. So with …
Video: Will Wade Basketball Camp [INSIDER] - Some of my best childhood memories come from times spent in the Franklin Street gym during the old Sonny Smith Basketball Camp days. So you can imagine how fun it was to get a chance to reminisce on my early 90s glory days when I visited Will Wade’s version of hoops camp yesterday. I got …
Video: Rams put on a show in domination of Fordham [INSIDER] - VCU thrilled yet another sellout crowd in tonight’s highlight-filled domination of Fordham. The Rams 34-point win against a much-improved Fordham team was perhaps their most complete performance of the season and one that extended their win-streak to seven heading into Saturday’s rivalry matchup at Richmond. Enjoy the highlights.
Reaction: VCU v Cal U (PA) [INSIDER] - VCU hosted their one and only exhibition of the season last night, tipping it up against the Cal U Vulcans for the third consecutive year and there was a very similar result: a 90-plus point night in a blowout win. There were many noticeable differences however, including a new head coach and a ton of …
Video: VCU Media Day player interviews [INSIDER] - You’ve had a chance to hear what Will Wade told the media in VCU’s Monday Media Day. Now here what the players had to say. I got a chance to do a few quick interviews with Michael Gilmore, Justin Tillman, Torey Burston, Doug Brooks, Korey Billbury, Jonathan Williams, Jordan Burgess, JeQuan Lewis and Mo Alie-Cox. …
