Wade Arena. The Rams have sold out every game since Jan. 29, 2011.

I believe it may be only being covered locally, and through the A10 Network (5-7$ to watch). If anyone knows anything else on where to watch, please let me know!

Not a good game at all. You can't shoot the ball that poorly and win. We had plenty of open looks from behind the arc and missed nearly every one.

The worst part though - VCU wasn't even that good. They're a middle of the pack type of team. This game was a very winnable game had we decided to show up.

I don't think the problem was the team 'not showing up'...the defense was pretty solid and the rebounding was strong. Effort was there, the shots just weren't falling. Obviously it's a problem when the threes don't fall, but the FT shooting is the part that is concerning me more. This team is really struggling at the line.

Yes, they did ok defensively, rebounding and forcing turnovers, but they were not there offensively.

They shot 33% from the floor, and 12% from behind the arc. 52% from the free throw line. Additionally, they only had 10 assists as a team which is quite bad. I do like how well we can pass the ball on the interior, but we just need to do it more.

wualum: Do the members of the Big South share in tournament revenue or is that kept by the participating schools? Feb 27, 2023 13:01:27 GMT -5

wualum: Well... close loss to upstate without Talford. suprising win on road against Gardner-Webb. Was very nervous is second half. First half was incredible, but you knew couldn't last. Feb 16, 2023 15:00:07 GMT -5

wualum: This team finds a way to lose games. Hightower didn't play most of second half and we should have won. Foul trouble is killing us. Maybe WU has to play more zone to avoid the fouls. Feb 7, 2023 13:42:22 GMT -5

wualum: must say, the second half was impressive Feb 2, 2023 14:29:09 GMT -5

punisher: Winthrop Baseball is in need for a change at the top, nothing personal but Tom is not a fit, and with 6 or 7 of the teams in the conference above 200 RPI, this woefully underperforming situation calls for a move in what is a poor conference. May 1, 2022 18:35:11 GMT -5

wualum: Not surprised at either. Neither seemed to thrive in Prosser's slower tempo. How much did Longwood's rise contribute to this? Their guards were bigger, stronger and got into the lane almost at will in the championship game. Mar 30, 2022 13:35:55 GMT -5

wualum: Coach Gray seems to be a quality coach. He will get WCU headed in the right direction. Happy for Russ. He was not going to get significant minutes here Mar 21, 2022 14:59:19 GMT -5

wualum: just joined the board, so just reading your post. Looking back an the season in it's entirety, I think your points were valid. Longwood has built a team to beat Winthrop. We need to adjust to that reality. Upstate appears as if they are trying to same Mar 7, 2022 15:18:32 GMT -5

wualum: King has already left the program. He is definitely gone. I don't see Corbin back either. I think Anumba has an extra year if he wishes to stay....but probably headed to the Italian pro leagues. Mar 7, 2022 11:39:20 GMT -5

eaglefan: Lost to Longwood today Jan 29, 2022 22:02:14 GMT -5

eaglefan: I think those WCU fans warned us about Prosser. Jan 24, 2022 22:02:12 GMT -5

hpufan15: Just joined! Glad this message board got created! Anyone follow any other active big south messages boards? The high point one has like 3 people and I miss of course the old winthrop one and uncafans. Jan 12, 2022 3:42:53 GMT -5

eaglefan: I guess no one is either excited or cares that Mark Prosser was hired? Apr 4, 2021 14:59:32 GMT -5
