4:30pm EST tip on Saturday 02/20/2021 at the Robins Center, Richmond, VA Last edited by PhoenixRising2 (2/20/2021 12:36 pm) Dukes win by 12. Go Dukes! Dukes win by 12. Go Dukes! Listening to Seth Greensburg tonight on espn Dayton massacre over SLU admitted A10 loading up the schedule for at large bids. Hughes gets 2 fouls early for breathing on Richmonds center. Bet the house on the Spiders. Dambrot should take a technical once the refs begin with their agendas per A10 in preparation of the A10 tourney. Paranoid yes. Hope I am wrong CLK If Dayton plays like they did tonight, they will be a strong entree in the tourney. Surprisingly easy win. Getting hot at the right time? This VCU game is going to run long. Showing some fight. Dukes we're looking for a foul call on the last-second shot of the half--TDM did get hammered on that shot. Dukes we're looking for a foul call on the last-second shot of the half--TDM did get hammered on that shot. Yes he did. Dukes like usual not getting any calls, but we knew that was going to be the case once again. Just hope they don't get royally screwed come A-10 tourney time. Not holding my breath though. Richmond shot 65% and only up 7. There's hope if they cool off some. Richmond cools off from 65% to 70%. Good to see Hughes back out there. I don't if it's me, but every time TDM misses a shot especially a three the opponent comes down and scores. All year as i've been watching. Go to HUGHES HUGHES HUGHES. Not rocket science at this point. Twice we don't come up with a loose ball and they nail a 3. Acuff Needs To Get More Time Refereeing was a complete JOKE. TDM is such a weak spot. I hope he doesn't come back. We call off our D and Richmond lobbies for an extra 3 points. Classy. TDM is such a weak spot. I hope he doesn't come back. Amen to that. However, I expect the coach doesn't see it the same way. His shooting has now become awful & his defense is about the same. I vote for much more Acuff. At least there would be better defense & it would help for the future. ALMOST... We call off our D and Richmond lobbies for an extra 3 points. Classy. Yeah man what a classless act. Hope they play them again and Dambrot ingrains this in his players heads. The Dukes effort in the second half was impressive. Hustle, toughness and effort. We call off our D and Richmond lobbies for an extra 3 points. Classy. I missed this. What happened? The Dukes effort in the second half was impressive. Hustle, toughness and effort. Yes I agree, but this team needs an extra chip on this shoulder given the bias reffing in this conference directed especially for them. I hope coach relays that to his players and the fact that clown Gilyard threw up at that three at the buzzer. I wonder why Gilyard took that last shot. Different positions but Hughes play now is reminding me of Aaron Jackson his senior year

Nice to see Maceo going up & down the court. I am sorry he didn't connect on the late FTs. It probably wouldn't have changed the outcome if he did but, it would have been a confidence booster.
If the Dukes played with as much passion in the first 12 minutes as they did in the last 25, they win this game.
Hughes was great. PLEASE, please come back!
