anyone going to sign up for flosports just for this game and then cancel? I usually would, but I might pass.
I don't see anything obvious about just buying one game.

I'm just going to cancel at the end of the month. Figure if I'm paying for a month, I might as well watch a few other games here and there.

Djonkem and Moses have played really well! They look like upper classmen and leaders. Hopefully Mangum and some of the others can get going in the second half! After an up and down first half, it's nice to see us only down by single digits.

You guys should hear our bench right now! They are getting loud and creating the atmosphere for our guys in the second half! Comeback is on!

Couldn't quite close it, Made a couple of runs to get it within 4 and 3. But just didn't quite have that knock out punch to take the lead back tonight. We won the second half by a point so, I'll take that as a positive. But we turned the ball over 20 times and that's way too many! It was nice to see Ali catch fire in the second half and drop 15. Roberts also finished the night with 11 and once again proved that Radford's signature guard game is still alive and well.Lastly, I'll just say it's nice to see Djokam have a good night! We won the rebounding battle a lot so, if we can make a higher percentage from the free-throw line, we'll be in games down the road. All that said, I like the way we battle for 40 minutes. This is a gritty team who plays Radford basketball and will grow up and be a competitive team late in the year.

Coach is giving (just about) everyone a fair shake early into this season. Probably cost us a few wins early but if that is the price to figure out the optimum formula then the losses are actually an investment. If you measure success by post season bids then conference and tourney outweighs early wins. Though I still would like another power 5 win (Vandy). Beating East Carolina would be nice, too.

Well if minutes through the first 3 games are any indication, we run about 7 deep. Mangum, Morton-Robertson, Ali, Walker, Lipscomb, Djonkam, and Jeffers are all averaging at least 20 minutes a game right now. But I agree. With this be our non conference schedule, now is the time to figure out who else can step up. Of the 7 I just mentioned, only 2 on this list played more than 10 minutes a game last season so, now is the time to get that experience. I'd love to steal one against Vandy or ECU, but given how green we are, those are going to be tough wins to get. Hopefully we can play the Mars Hill game, but it looks like that is in doubt due to a positive Covid test on the Mars Hill side. Definitely don't want our guys putting their health at risk. That said, if Mars Hill can't play, hopefully, we can find a substitute opponent at the last second.

Just checked our website. Mars Hill is canceled. Next game is against East Carolina. Shame as this would have been a good game to get a lot of our young guys some big minutes. But I’m glad the university is taking Covid seriously and canceling the game.
