I'm a VCU fan, but I genuinely feel bad for you. Chris Mooney is the paragon of mediocrity and Hardt keeps extending his contract. This is getting kind of sad.

I'm a VCU fan, but I genuinely feel bad for you. Chris Mooney is the paragon of mediocrity and Hardt keeps extending his contract. This is getting kind of sad.
I mean, I enjoy two free wins every year, but this is getting kinda pathetic. Their fans have been clamoring for John Hardt to replace Mooney for years and they're stuck with him for three more years.
Lowly 8-23 Loyola Chicago, the lowest seed in the #A10MBB tournament, is going to overcome a 15-point deficit to beat Richmond 75-67. The Spiders will finish with their third losing season of the last 4 years.
Loyola beat Richmond during the regular season.
That's a shame for the NFL, because Bluesky is the Place for Sports.
Chris Mooney appears to be celebrating his renewal for 2026-27 by... *checks notes* ...blowing a 15-point lead and losing to freaking Loyola Chicago in the #A10MBB pillow fight
Some fun VCU first team facts:
- 1st time since 2007-08 VCU has had two players on first team in any conference, and only the second time ever
- Hill makes first team with fewest starts on record in the #A10MBB with 2 (Rashid Bey had 3 in '97, Obi Toppin had 15 in '19) #LetsGoVCU #A10MBB
Cucumber Sprite sounds quite intriguing to me
(2026-2026)
Looks like the Mark Schmidt era will go on for at least one more day as St. Bonaventure trounces La Salle 99-80 in the first game of the #A10MBB tournament.
The only reporting I saw that suggested that was from a troll account.
I'd like to know this myself
I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...
Enjoy the pillow fight!
Happy birthday!
Some people seem bothered by Steve Donahue being named COY.
- Fired after going 8-19 at Penn
- Hired by Billy Lange as an assistant
- Got thrust into the HC position when Lange abruptly left for the Knicks
- Overcame a 2-3 start to finish 21-10 and 13-5 in #A10MBB
I think he deserves it. #THWND
I'm so glad Bernadtte McGlae is leaving. #LetsGoVCU #A10MBB
I think Hill's here to stay but I'm concerned about Lewis.
VCU #A10MBB accolades:
Nyk Lewis: Rookie of the Year, All-Rookie Team
Brandon Jennings: All-Defensive Team
Terrence Hill: All-Conference First Team, Most Improved Player, Sixth Man of the Year
Lazar Djokovic: All-Conference First Team

More like Russia is playing chess.
Trump is playing Candy Land.
The #A10MBB tournament begins today! St. Bonaventure vs. La Salle, then Loyola Chicago vs. Richmond! A coach who was fired, a coach who I'll give a pass because it's La Salle, and two coaches who should be fired but aren't going to be.
Let the pillow fight begin!
True.
Well, Bluesky was fun while it lasted
Yeah, things like this are why I hate the NET
High Point just leapfrogged Dayton, and Dayton has fallen to #76 in the NET, meaning VCU has lost that Q1 win. Probably going to need Dayton to win big in their #A10MBB quarterfinal game to get that back. #LetsGoVCU
And a pretty nice payday! Awesome job!
Watching my good friend @brakusjps.bsky.social on Wheel of Fortune!
AI was a mistake
Yeah, he got let go in January. He's been around in one way or another for over 40 years so at this point I expect him to retire.
The sad thing is that firing him then did the Roos a disservice as they didn't win a single game after that. They'd only played two conference games and were 1-1.
