Jesse Morgan landed and broke his wrist in practice. Javon Farrell just had an ankle operation. Of course this is an opportunity for other players.

So happy the presession polls are just background noise. Football season starts shortly with tail gating, the marching band, talking with friends and watching football.

If all these injuries lead to our downfall...well at least we'd have seen it coming early on this year. No false hope the whole way through only to get crushed in the end

It'll be exciting basketball no matter what though. If we don't make it out of conference play alive, I sure hope we can get more excited fans packing the Mullins center at the very least.

As for football, got my pre-game "VIP" reception invites in the mail this past week. That really got me excited (even if the best prediction has us coming out at 3-9 so far)

How does this relate to Dez Wells?

Note: Goodonya La Salle. They could be right at the top of the conference when all is said and done.

Joel Welser is having an off-year. It happens.

So I guess this makes UR no better than 12th?
Seven spots left, who else could they leave out - SLU, SJU, VCU, UMass, Temple, Xavier, Butler?

Last year St. Louis wasn't in the top 144 either.

Richmond will be a sleeper. Shooters everywhere on the court and an influx of really talented freshmen. Defense and rebounding are the keys to making the jump.

Neither were the Bonnies.

NO CHANCE the Spiders are 12th at the end of the year. 7-9 at worst, 10-6 at best. Lots of close games, and I like Mooney in a close game.

AdamtheFlyer · 08-24-2012, 11:02 AM

Richmond is going to be very, very good.

Everybody can score. Defense and Rebounding will be the difference as usual.

Bona84 · 08-24-2012, 11:18 AM

Maybe it's Xavier he picks 12th?

SpiderDave19 · 08-24-2012, 11:24 AM

No way it's Xavier, though if he could do it over after this week's news, it would certainly make a difference.

Bona84 · 08-24-2012, 11:25 AM

Just pulling their collective leg, Dave.

Could be after the Mark and Dez fallouts. Hell, we could start 3-4 freshman. but it will be a short rebuild.
