Hawks being taken to the cleaners at home at the hands of the Bonnies right now on CBSSN. 56-30, lots of time to go. Joe Cabrey was more concerned about the robberies around La Salle campus so he started a thread on that. That led to everyone posting that La Salle will be closed within 15 years. Idk who Joe cabrey is. And quite frankly don't care. Just hope he his house gets robbed.

Did they all overlook the fact that there have been several robberies around the SJU of PA campus? Best not to throw stones in glass houses.

Joe's at Davidson tonight on ESPN2. Wildcats giving 10, looking for some revenge against the Hawk. Not sure which Hawk team will show up tonight. I think Davidson wins, but SJU keeps it close and covers. Not much else going on until Saturday.

Saint Joseph’s of Pennsylvania led by as many as 10 in the second half, only to lose by 8. So sad.

Rhody led by 4 at home with under a minute to go. Fordham pulls within 2 with 32 secs. Martin gets called for a foul and then a lane violation, Fordham ties it. Fats Russell turns it over with a few secs left and strips Fordham on the breakaway layup forcing OT - only for Fordham to win by 3 despite numerous shots by Rhody while possessing the ball for the final 48 secs.
Rhody drops to 5-7, that’s good news for us.

Ash being worth 3 additional wins and *11* spots in the rankings versus last year certainly seems huge to me. yeah you're right...the 4 guys now in the NBA had NOTHING to do with it. It was all Ash. I'm surprised Villanova even decided to have a season this year after he left. Hmmm ...

I must admit G sounds really good as commentator.. I've heard him a handful of times. A bunch at Bonnie's, guess he's still spending some time with Sean Neal, but he does a tremendous job. Not trying too hard and talking too much like some new commentators, but he does very well.

Must be weird for all those VCU, UVA, and Tech fans just commuting to work to learn that Richmond basketball has fans that care.

They have a Twitter feed. Some of the stuff on it is pretty funny, although I was disappointed in their post after we beat them. Hopefully they step up their game for a funnier tweet when we beat them again tomorrow.

They are taking some heat for the billboard. I actually poked the bear and called them out for it in comments on this tweet...

Haha, love it, just like the Alford airplane sign. I'm not gonna lie, I fiddled with a "Fire Fran" sticker concept after the NIT fiasco last year. Thankfully something was done before I invested the $50. It's been a really fun year in the A10. That Rhody Fordham game was absolutely wild last week. I have some weird feeling Dayton is going to win the tournament and the Bonnies are going to make a deep run.

With that kind of scratch, he should put a billboard up next to theirs saying, "Buy me out, bitches"

According to their tweeter site the Fire Mooney people are requesting the billboard be deactivated. I found this interesting tweet by A10Talk on the URI fan base.

There is no doubt that the team rallied for Mooney yesterday and they seem to play better away from home. I was recently in Richmond had heard some interesting comments on their sports talk radio station.
On to yesterday's SJU (PA) game at UMASS. A few things jumped out to me. 1. Pipkins did not play. Is he hurt or in the doghouse? 2 Holloway did not start and played a total of 2 minutes. Anyone know if he got hurt? 3 SJU (PA) lead by 17 at halftime and lost the game by one. Ouch.

Something seriously wrong with Hawks this year.
Pipkins has been sideline with a groin injury for several games. How does Martelli lose to a UMass team without Pipkins?

VCU up to 10-seed, Dayton now amidst the bubble talk: BracketologyI want the A-10 to get multiple bids, but I also like the idea of getting to .500 in conference, 10+ wins for the season, etc. and that might involve beating Davidson tomorrow or at Dayton next week.

The conference Kenpom ranking is 13th out of 32 (and 1 worse than the Ivy). Here's our final conf ranking with (# of bids & NIT bids).
2018 - 10 (3 & 0) 2017 - 8 (3 & 1) 2016 - 8 (3 & 3) 2015 - 7 (3 & 3) 2014 - 8 (6 & 0) 2013 - 8 (5 & 3) 2012 - 8 (4 & 4) 2011 - 8 (5 & 3)
