and the fun they had at the
@VCU_Hoops
that means the world to me. These Peppas are incredible school ambassadors
Im disappointed in the game, mainly because a lot of fans don’t understand winning and will now abandon ship until we “get right”. We WILL get right. Man RELAX!
Side note the band, whew 🔥🔥
It hasn’t been like that in awhile. And their energy 💯
Come take this ride with us
Long trip home so bear with me. I love what I do. I hope that shows. I really do. Your band can be impactful. Your band can have an effect on the game. Why won’t programs invest in the experience?

fan base is wild. Or some of them....”The program is broken” 🤯 Are you kidding me? You guys have never suffered and it shows. You think people lose on purpose? Be upset when we lose then keep it moving.

sooo much I can say but THANK YOU and I LOVE YOU is really how I feel. You all give me life. Give me headaches. Make me laugh and cry. That’s a full and beautiful day. I’m blessed beyond measure. ❤️ And we all love our

HUGEEEEEEE SHOUTOUT to all the fans, students, and
@thepeppas
for having another AMAZING atmosphere last night!!! You all had a reason to doubt and not show up and bring energy like you did the first game, but you did anyway! You have no idea how much that means to our team!💛🖤
Thank you

I needed to get that one under the belt. You all did not disappoint! I feel so good about our teams
@VCU_Hoops
@VCUWBB
and most importantly I feel good about the fans! Tonight was the first step to packing the Stu again.

#PackTheSTU
From a guy that’s not really connected but has a pretty good understanding of how things work. Just to ease some minds.
Players enter the portal to give themselves options. Think of it as another time to be recruited by everyone even VCU. They can return if the coach wants them
One of the last things I’ll say today….All of you disgruntled fans SHOULD 💯Show All the ❤️ to our guys that stayed and are fighting. I love those guys!
While tomorrow isn’t the first official game I’m nervous lol It’s been so long. I won’t be performing like a regular season game but I can’t wait to feel the flow again
I want the A10 to get 5 teams in the NCAA TOURNAMENT
I want each one of those teams to win at least 1 game
I want 3 in the Sweet 16
I want 1 in the final 4
AND
I want
@VCU_Hoops
to be the National Champion
Last thing for the night….
I wasn’t sure what the
@thepeppas
were going to bring this evening. Sometimes games over the break struggle BUTTTTTTTT not today.
Man that was full force full power and intense.
I have a really strong feeling
@VCU_Hoops
outcome next season will be much different. Ground work has been set. All those questions about MR will be answered and the naysayers will go into remission. Hope to witness it in person and not work so much 💪🏽

Some nights aren’t your night BUT what a great year. I’m so grateful for all the adversity we had and more grateful for the triumph over it. We are clearly not dead we are thriving in the face of it!

Obviously my heart and mind is away from basketball right now and hurting and praying for the folks in Baltimore. I pray for the 1st responders and the mitigation efforts taking place. Obviously to those directly involved in the tragedy. May God be with you all.

I believe it can be the year to get the entire department back on track. The AD has shown his ability to listen and compromise. I do believe the team will be really good. Program has to grab the fans back

Averaged 14 PPG, 4.6 RPG, and 3.6 APG last season.
A massive coup for Ryan Odom and the Rams.
You guys have always had my back the love is real. Thank you seriously. I just try to keep my word no matter what. 💪🏽💯
So happy for our entire program. The buzz, anxiety, excitement, and even respect for the guys that moved on was palpable

The atmosphere is so much better with Ryan in charge. Different level of energy and creativity. I'm glad we were able to make amends.

I mean you realize he wasn’t kidnapped right lol
He wants to advance his career as well. You have to be happy for someone some day, sometime 😹
Ya know……….It’s not like we are playing cupcakes. Admittedly we aren’t playing great but we are going through the battle and putting in work. SOME teams are really hitting some easy weight early on. 🤷🏻♂️

We all can agree coach Bennett is the truth. Is Coach O headed in that direction?
This weekend could be a huge first step.

Man….. I’m gonna be so upset if I have to eat crow about all the people talking trash about Rhoades offense, if we get an offensive minded coach, we keep our guys & we win the national championship lol. O I guess I’ll let it slide 😹😹

A significant late development in PORTAL KOMBAT.
Everyone, BUCKET GETTERS is right. The ladies filled it up! Now let’s do our part and fill the stands for their games! Specifically March 2nd we want to SELL OUT for the game against Mason

You know how VCU has the clause of playing a home and home when a team poaches our coach? What if teams put that in when they take players from the portal? Or at least make it an option 🤔

I want to say thank you for your shout out in your video. Your VCU commentary has been too good for too long. Super under appreciated.
