I can't wait for this to start. I'm sporting a new avatar in support of my team. I hope Georgia State wins because Delaware beat us earlier in the season, and we just stomped them in our last game.

Looking forward to seeing my ODU take on VCU in the semi's hopefully. Rivalry son, rivalry.

Yeah I hope that game happens. It should be a good one with each team having won on their home floor.

Wow, Drexel absolutely $hit the bed and lost to Towson, lol.

Close shave for your Monarchs. Hopefully you guys aren't too tired for your butt-whipping tomorrow. :wink:

Victory is ours.

Shame that Lee re-aggravated that injury. I am surprised that you guys didn't win by more. We will be back strong next year for sure. I'm headed down tomorrow to cheer on George Mason.

Sanders had Lee shut down anyway. We came out sluggish in the first half, but then again we're usually a second half team anyway. As for tomorrow's game, there's no way Maynor will let us lose.

I hate VCU, Richmond, and the Richmond Coliseum. Sorry Floyd. Congrats on the win though. Looking forward to next season.

So is the Washington DC area going to adopt VCU as one of their own for the next couple of weeks? Might not be anyone else remotely local with a shot to get into the Tourney.

I understand, a lot of people feel that way. I wish they would just move the tournament to DC or something just so fans won't have that whole "VCU is basically playing at home" excuse.

I've been watching Maynor for a little bit. Love the kid, cocksure brassy tough mug. I got no problem pulling for his squad.

I am reallly an Anthony Grant fan. He could be a good NBA coach with his demeanor.
