Players Michael Belle is a VCU Ram!

When Ben Wallace made a big play (dunk, block) for the Detroit Pistons, the public address system played a deep "Gong" sound, similar to Big Ben Clock in Westminster.
Perhaps VCU can follow that lead and play a "jingle" sound when Belle puts points on the board.
That might irritate the opposition, however.
I see Bamisile, Billups and Belle - the Killer B's - as having similar skill sets and similar enough size.
Minutes on the wing could be hard to come by if the NCAA sets Bamisile free, again.

I'm going to list him on the roster as exactly 6-6.74

I clipped these and put them together for a tasty MBelle treat. Clapham Common is in Camberwell, England. I don't know a lot about br hiphop but sliced this in, from the Attack The Block soundtrack as background music (*language* so listen with volume down if you are easily offended)

New episode alert! In this latest Rams Rewind “Newcomer Roundup” installment, host George Templeton interviews Isaac Omirin, Michael Belle’s former coach from Knights Basketball in London.

His coach emphasized his 6’7” to 6’8” athleticism coupled with a 7’4” wing span saying he gets after it on D with rebounding and deflections while also being a good ball handler. Unreal. I cannot wait to see him develop!

Really interesting stuff. Hard not to get excited about what Michael can be.

I agree and did you see that body. Not since Bruce Pettway have we had someone who is this cut. Wow, hope his physical traits and his skill make him a great.

Dude passes the numbers and the eye test. Seems to have MAJOR steal potential.

We don't recruit against teams in our own conference very often, but this one seems like a great get. You never know how these things will work out but from what I saw and heard I did not want to be playing against him.

I don't think VCU basketball has ever had a freshman like Michael Belle....closest thing I can think of was George Evans (Mason F from the late 90's) who came to Mason in his early 20's after playing ball against grown a$$ men in the US Army.

Belle seems like a freshman in name only...like everyone else, put me in the "super stoked/geeking out" camp!!

Assuming here, he already understands the history. Quick learner! @VCUBeatsduke

The athleticism of Belle and Tobi in front court at the same time is off the chart. Or Belle/Barristow/K2, wow…all big and can shoot. I can’t wait to see how chemistry evolves on this team. So many combinations available for RO and staff.
