RICHMOND (4-2) at WICHITA STATE (6-1) Pregame Discussion

[Veritas]

Shox 73
Spiders 61

STL preseason #6 and Richmond #11 in A10
I’ll be disappointed if we don’t control this game fairly easy.
They do have program continuity and a good coach but I think we should control and win

Several thoughts....first, the Shockers SHOULD win tonight...after all the coach who couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag beat them on their home floor last year...

Secondly....I like the job Mills is doing A LOT, and I'm happy to eat crow, but 2-4 over the next 6 seems MOST likely to me...

Doc, hopefully look you up tonight...

So if you think we should beat Richmond and are gonna go 2-4 in the next 6, you’re saying we’re gonna drop a turd to SDSU or SIU? That sounds very Brownish to me.

How did I end up on the UNI board?

Thought the same thing. It appears the liberty loss was a resume builder.

[Atxshoxfan]

I expect this team to have a really bad game or 2 and a really good game or 2. We could beat a KU on a really good game if they play poorly, and lose to SDSU if we play poorly and they play well. That's why games are played.

I have no expectations but will enjoy the development of the team.

[Atxshoxfan]

Richmond has a7 footer who plays a nice game. It will be interesting to watch our 2 bigs attack around the hoop. Especially anxious to see how KP holds up.

They use him much like we use KP as a high post for passing. But he will set up beyond the 3 point line while their team clears the lane and makes backdoor cuts. I suspect we go zone quite a bit to try and stop that.

Tickets on vivid seats as low as seven dollars . there's a nine dollar ticket in section 112 which is pretty amazing . six to seven dollar ticket fees of course

I said SHOULD....mostly tongue in cheek...because, you know if BROWN could beat them, a real coach should....

and again, I think Mills is doing great except that one game where he OBVIOUSLY got outcoached.....but this is a tough stretch for these 8 kids...
Mizzou...loss
SDS.......toss up, but thinking loss
SIU.......win
KSU....loss
KU......loss

As i said...2-4...

Someone in the past used to have the saying, “When ifs and buts become candy and nuts, we’ll all have a Merry Christmas.” Don’t remember who it was, but seems relevant to some comments lately.

If we can win our next 5 games and finish in the top 3 in the AAC, we might be in the hunt for an atl large.

Puff, puff, pass!

[WstateU]

Puff, puff, pass!

"Hurry back, I miss you already darling!"

Since we're talking "if's", I've put some serious thinking about this season and have figured out what needs to be done. If we can score more points than our opponents in each game for the rest of the season. Not only will we win the AAC but we will win the NCAA tournament.
