    Coach Ryan Odom Show, Media Minutes & Pressers

    My only real question about this is...Is the VCU NIL monies coming from corporations OR from the students? Are student fees (and such) going to go up because of this?

    ANY excuse to remind people about the existence of the film BASEketball is a win in my book....Much like Mike Judge's Idiocracy, Trey Parker and Matt Stone were kind of peeking into the future with this little gem

    I find this rumor utterly unsurprising....happens all the time in the business/teaching/tech world... I'll also add that one of my least favorite aspects of America (after racism/sexism/classism/etc) is the current political climate/lobbyist/ridiculousness/attention whore-y goings on between...

    dang well...hope he doesn't go the way of Hason Ward and lands in a spot that will allow him to develop his game

    2024-25 Roster Thread

    I like the MR era scheduling philosophy of "try to schedule the top 1 or 2 teams in a lesser conference"....so that coupled with the "lesser P5" schools might be the best way to go. We might also have to consider going on the road for those....HandH is a tough sell for some of those P5 AD's As...

    VCU Rams Baseball Thread 2024

    Even though this result doesn't really change anything for the Rams from a W/L standpoint...the ability for a baseball team to win a close game like that is a HUGE boost to the morale, psychology, and general well being of the boys... At home with Dayton this weekend....not a "must win"...

    I haven't seen any mocks with Holmes in the 1st round. Mainly low/mid 30's into the mid 40's....He's honestly better off going the P5 mercenary route and cashing in while he can before the "Pro/G League...should I go to Europe" scenario unfolds. I did see former kinda sorta almost Ram Bobi...

    Recruiting Transfer Portal

    This will be the first season in NCAA history where players are earning money AND having the totally unfettered offseason ability to switch schools immediately and play. In other words, the NCAA (a cold, indifferent father who day-drinks) is taking NCAA Men's basketball (a toddler....like, one...

    That scenario would require.....wait for it.....transparency and oversight we've a better chance of seeing The Traveling Wilburys go back on tour...

    This is a great analogy!! I'll also cosign to much of what @VCU94MCV98 and Phantom said as well....I have 2 kids who are on the cu$p of college, aging parents in various states of decline, and oh yea.....I gotta work for another 20 years. I have more than a few hobbies that keep me happy and...

    Yea...disappointing result We're still hangin in that upper tier, but there is a ton of gridlock and Dayton (also 6-3) is comin to town https://d1baseball.com/conference/atlantic-10-conference/ as always, pitching has been our bugaboo....

    NCAA Transfer & NIL Policies

    I'm tryin to keep up with all these transfers and whatnot, I hear about Ed's pleas for more $$$, and I'm seein other schools picking up guys. I know Odom will get us a team, so I'm not super worried about that. What I AM curious about is the total lack of transparency regarding NIL...whether...

    Agreed...SBU SUCKS at baseball....2 out of 3 has to be the rule of these next two games Eike's 1st inning error didn't help...but Zach Peters biffed his start SO hard. ooooooof Credit to Brian Curley for going 7.2!! Only 4 hits, couple walks and NO runs!!

    2024-25 Roster Thread

    Maybe being a high mid major will generally help with roster stability? We're kinda in the "Goldilocks Zone" for a certain level of quality 3*/4* type player (as we have for the last 20 or so years) COULD these guys jump to a P4 school? Sure, but maybe the PT/comfort level isn't there...so...
