🏀 Virginia vs Villanova @ Baltimore, MD, W, 70-60, 3-0 (0-0 ACC), Friday, 15 November 2024, 1700, TNT

Villanova lacks just as much depth at the pg spot: they only have Brickus although I thought Perkins at UPenn was a pg

Dixon has been a little 3pt happy instead of going down low. And he loves that pump fake to get his defender in the air. Hope our young guard stays down low and forces him to finish over them.

Dai Dai on Brickus
McKneely on Poplar
Saunders on Longino
Bucanan on Dixon
Cofie on Baoyke (don’t want Cofie or Saunders to pick up fouls. Too important if Power and Ishan are still not hitting).

Buddy if we lose to this Villanova team, it might truly be over.

They’ll be favored. This St joes team is solid and playing in their building

I think we could have had Brickus. Him.vs Dai Dai/Rohde will be interesting.

Does anyone have Bliss injury/timetable intel?

I was/am a Brickus skeptic, as he only had one notably good season in the A10, but he did have a nice game judging by the box.

If Ron gives Neptune a stay of execution I’m going to be very upset.

Nova had 14 offensive rebounds. Last night VT had 16 in their win. Just two examples. UVA has 10 in TWO games. I was glad to hear Ron talk about this after the first game (only had 4), but it continues to be an issue for UVA. Awhile back, someone on here posted about the importance of offensive rebounding (backed it up with stats), and I found it very interesting and have been following it more closely. I hope we can be more aggressive on the glass against Nova.

I’m fairly confident the answer is “no”

It’s game to game with Bliss. He practices then he doesn’t, been like that the whole time. It would be a pleasant surprise if he’s able to emerge as a factor at all this season. It’s not just about getting past the foot issues, he’s way behind.

Sounds like a medical redshirt.

Bliss, Gertrude getting a retroactive redshirt on the season he barely played in, and Isaiah Abraham off his retroactive redshirt once the game limited Redshirt rule kicks in and he portal

will end up being our 2025 class. Along with the Robinson double redshirt
