NBC SPORTS: VCU's Rodriguez going out on high note

[xjohnx]

RICHMOND, Va. - VCU point guard Joey Rodriguez was talking with Shaka Smart before the second round of the NCAA men's tournament when he turned to his coach with a revelation.

"I whispered to him, I said, 'Coach, you know we can win this whole thing, right?'" Rodriguez said this week. "And he looked at me and was like, 'You serious?' And I said, 'Yeah.'

"And he said, 'I think so, too.'"

"In 34 minutes, he scored 12 points, had 11 assists, no turnovers and never let his team let up for a moment. In three tournament games, he's scored 37 points, had 23 assists and just three turnovers, and he's hoping to be equally efficient when the Rams (26-11) play Florida State (23-10) on Friday in San Antonio."

Yauser, yauser, yauser. 37 points, 23 assists and only 3 turnovers. We need that kind of Friday and we'll be good.

The point about him not letting the team let up for a moment is a good one. Against Purdue, he really pushed it up the floor and attacked after we had a pretty good lead. He never let up.

This team goes as Joey does. If we see Joey's numbers continuing to trend positively, the sky is the limit.
