"You've got to respond the right way," VCU point guard Joey Rodriguez said. "You can respond like a coward and come out and not play hard, or you can respond like a winner and play and try to win. That's what we're going to try to do."

"I'd say shock would be putting it mildly. Shock along with disbelief," VCU Athletic Director Norwood Teague said of his reaction. "I don't think there's any way that you can defend [that with] what we've done, after all the preaching we get at the mid-major level about our RPI and [11] at-larges had an RPI higher than ours.

I like the way Joey phrased that. Lead this team, J-Rod.

yeah definitely. At least we know one person has his mind set. Hopefully the rest of the team is the same way, and are ready to show the NIT what a mistake they made by leaving us out.

You Think W&M will beat UNC in the first round? I think they got a good shot at it. Any other year, not a chance but UNC is WAY down this year.
 
I love Joey (no homo), hope he can rally the rest of the team. We need to take care of business and pick up our third win of the season over A-10 competition.

"When the ball goes in the air, we're going to come out and play hard," Rodriguez said. "But right now, it's hard on everybody. Everybody is disappointed [about the NIT]. It kind of feels like last weekend, after we lost the Old Dominion game."

I hope this 'disappointment' turns into rage and revenge :evil: so this team can show the NIT as$-hats they f'd up...win this thing...make a statement with conviction!

GO RAMS!

How much less could they care? I think they couldn't care less. Sorry just being a smarta$$, but you hit the nail on the head. We're the only that cares but that's all that really matters.
