Just don't let Monroe sit anywhere near the bench.

This game at 3:30 or so after the VCU/WISC one? DUKE v GU is at 1:00 PM. It's the first game. Hoyas have a very good shot to win this one. Sure would be nice to get Tre and/or White back.

Apparently that is the better TV slot.

I think this is a battle of two teams you don't want to see in a few months when all the pieces start coming together. This win, for either team, will look pretty good come March.

Make Grayson Allen a jump shooter, run Jones off the 3 point line. I was pleased to see, another game of great effort on the defensive end do that has to continue. With the new rules, our guards are going to struggle with foul trouble again. I expect III to try and manage with Kaleb and we may get another Riyan Williams sighting. Duke has no post game to speak of so I expect Hayes and Derrickson to both have much better games.

I was at the games this evening right behind the Hoya/VCU bench. Allen is hurt in my opinion. He pulled his right hammy in front of us and gutted his way through it. Sunday he may not be doing well as he was all warmed up for the balance of the game. As regards the Hoyas I am so glad to see the depth of this team allow improved pressing defense. The first time I have seen this level of pressure defense from the Hoyas in many years. They have a realistic shot against Duke. Go Hoyas!

Im happy for the 1pm slot but as a Redskins fan it is gonna be hard switching between both games. I will mostly watch the Hoyas because the Skins game will be in the 3rd when the BBall game is ending............LET'S GO!!!!!!!!

I was really surprised to hear that we play at 1. As I understand it, Duke as a condition insisted on the early game.
Like the match up. We have a chance.

Calling Brandon Bowman can you please send us some Duke-beating mojo?

Even if you're 10 feet from the basket, body someone. Long shots make for long rebounds. This game would be a HUGE win after the first two. If they want to wash away the taste of Radford, chew on some Duke.

I saw that too but I think it may have been more an onset of a cramp in the thigh/hamstring rather than anything more serious because he seemed to be trying to stretch it out and continued playing with it. Regardless, we have to expect him to be at full strength and really work on shutting him down. He's got a really good 3pt shot, good handles, and can really explode to the basket and finish with his long arms and elite vertical.
