VCU was the final A-10 team still playing basketball coming into tonights NIT Quarterfinal matchup with Utah. But the Utes home court advantage proved too much as the Rams post-season dreams came to a 74-54 halt. Sean Bairstow led the Rams with 13 points on 6-of-14 shooting for the night. He...

The Rams will travel south to Tampa to take on an old conference foe from back in the Sunbelt/Metro conference days when taking on the South Florida Bulls on Sunday. The Rams punched their ticket to the NIT Sweet 16 by defeating Villanova in Philly, while South Florida won on the road against...

VCU traveled to the Mainline in Philadelphia to take on the one-seeded Villanova Wildcats in the opening round of the 2024 NIT Tournament. Behind three first half triples from Fats Billups, the Rams used an 11-0 run as a response to a 8-0 run from the Wildcats. Billups shot 50% from deep and...

The Rams will make the relatively quick trip up 95 North to Philly this weekend to try and start their NIT tournament off with a win at Villanova. The top-seeded Wildcats will take on VCU for the first time since Nov 24, 2014, a 24-point loss for the black and gold in what would eventually end...

Duquesne will dance for the first time since 1977 as they took down VCU in the A10 Mens Finals matchup on Sunday, 57-51. VCU found themselves down 18 points in the first half as a hot-shooting Dukes squad connected on 7 of their 14 attempts from distance in the first 20 minutes. Down 36-22 at...

VCU will play in their 8th A-10 Tournament Finals appearance in just 11 seasons as the Rams took down the Hawks of St. Joseph's Univeristy 66-60 in the Sem-Finals contest on Saturday. Just one game after being held without a field goal, Senior Max Shulga lead all scorers with 25 points on 10-11...

The Rams of Fordham University kicked off the A-10 tournament with a bit of an upset today despite their higher seed line, downing the Davidson Wildcats in overtime, 71-63. That pens in VCU's first opponent in this year's Atlantic 10 tournament, allowing us to take a quick peek of the black and...

VCU's final attempt at securing a double-bye comes tonight and it may come with an extreme degree of difficulty. After falling at Richmond by three, then dropping a home contest against Duquesne by 10, the black and gold travel to Dayton to attempt an upset to secure the A-10's 4-seed for next...

It's been a long season of injuries and forced roster adjustments for VCU (19-11; 11-6), and the Rams once again needed to find a way to battle adversity if they were going to lock in a Top-4 finish in the A10 race. Just before Senior Night festivities were set to take place, Rams fans learned...

In their final home game of the season, the Rams will hope to hold serve against Keith Dambrot's Duquesne Dukes in an effort to clinch a top-4 Atlantic 10 tournament seed and the coveted double-bye that comes with it. Should VCU slip in front of their home fans, it would put the pressure on the...

The VCU bench scored 39 points en route to a decisive 88-67 win over the visiting Rams of Rhode Island. VCU led wire-to-wire as the Rams jumped out to a 17-3 lead to start the game. Another run later in the first half, this time 14-3, would usher the Rams into the locker room with a 42-21...

VCU is a couple games back, but still definitely in the fight for an A-10 regular season championship and are at worst in control of their own destiny on a top-4 seed and the A-10 tourney double-bye (/shortened tournament path) that comes with it. In their way this evening is the Archie...

VCU (18-9; 10-4) outscored St. Joseph's 52-42 in the second half to secure a much need win as the Rams look to lock up a double-bye in the forthcoming A10 Tournament. The first half was a mostly cold 20-minutes for the Rams as they looked like hadn't yet shaken off the rust from the loss just...

VCU was one of the hottest teams in Atlantic 10 play in February, having picked up two huge wins over A-10 title contenders, Dayton and Richmond. Hoping to create some distance from the rest of the pack, VCU suffered quite the setback instead, getting absolutely throttled by the Minutemen of...

Winners of four straight—and nine of their last ten—coming into tonights game, VCU (17-9; 9-4) looked to stay in contention for a possible regular season title with a win over the Minutemen of UMASS. But, what could go wrong, did go wrong for the Rams on Tuesday night as they fell on the road...

It's certainly a new phenomenon for VCU to head into SLU's Chaifetz Arena as a solid road favorite, but that's just where we find ourselves today thanks to a downward trajectory that has made for one weird season in the Gateway City. The Billikens have been typically "tough" under Travis Ford...

It took a full forty minutes—and some stout last second defense—but the Rams (16-8; 8-3) fought off the Flyers as they took down #18 Dayton, 49-47, on Friday night. Dayton opened the scoring for evening hitting a three pointer, but a free throw from Christian Fermin and then a three pointer...

The last time the VCU Rams and Dayton Flyers tipped it up was for the 2023 Atlantic 10 Championship. VCU got the better of that battle, winning their second A-10 tourney championship -- coincidentally both times against the Flyers -- then lost their coach, the majority of their roster and had to...

VCU is riding a pretty serious high after taking down crosstown rival Richmond this past weekend, but will need to quickly turn the page Tuesday with a matchup against a somewhat struggling but dangerous Fordham Rams team. Keith Urgo's second season as head honcho in the Bronx isn't off to the...

The Rams have been rolling as of late, winning five consecutive games including three on the road. No better way to test what's improved for the black and gold during that streak thank by matching up again with the team that handed VCU their first A-10 loss of the year. St. Bonaventure plays...
