So the thing we are really going to miss this year is the "uh-oh" and the "oh yeah" factor. Anyone that has been to a vcu game in the past 2 years knows exactly what I'm talking about. Especially last year, vcu kind of under preforms in the first half, Eric trys to move the ball around but no one is shooting that great. 1st half ends maynor has 5 or 6 points and we are up by say 3 points. The opposing fans look at the score, then they look at maynor's 5 points and say "uh-oh." And then the vcu fans look at the score, look at eric's points, and then look at there friends beside them and say "oh yeah, we got this." "Just wait til Eric goes sick nasty in the 2nd half." Its that fear that the opposing team and their fans have and the confidence that vcu exhibits. By the end of the game Eric will have taken over and if vcu doesn't win it is going to be a dog fight to take the game from us. That is what we are really going to miss from Eric. We can replace the points, maybe even the leadership, but that X factor of "we can win any game" will be tough to take over.
