Lost this one 53-69. Radford is one of the bottom (if not the bottom) teams in the Big South. They lost 51-62 last Wednesday. We play Johnson & Wales in 2 weeks. This will likely be our last chance for another victory this season.

Don’t count that one just yet,, we’ll probably still have the same coach and the midget playing 39 minutes. This team is a train wreck and the CAA season will be a complete embarrassment.

Wouldn’t write off every game YET. Certainly J&W, Hampton, NCAT, W&M and Stony Brook are winnable games. Could we lose all of them?…maybe. I’m also not sure how good UNCG is this year, they haven’t lived up to the same quality as last year. In the CAA there is a huge gap it seems between Elon and the teams I listed and the rest of the conference which is way better.

I understand what you're saying pf23. My original thought was maybe they're still not in the groove of the new system. The reality is, they're actually getting good looks. I mean good, open looks and they just can't knock down the shot. We shot 32% FG, 25% 3PT and 73% FT against Radford. If we'd have shot 50, 33, 75 in each of those 3 categories every game, we'd be at least 4-2 in D1 play. This and all the rest of the way we play has been exactly the same every game. Other than a 5'10" player driving the lane a bit too often, I like what I see except not making our open shots.

Regardless, I'm not throwing away my season tickets and will continue to go to the games and support the team. It is what it is and I am what I am. I'll be at shar again on Saturday.

I love your optimism and passion for the team. I'm right there with you in terms of continuing to show up, I just am not seeing the same potential. Apparently I can't get enough of being disappointed year after year. I desperately want to be proven wrong. Go Phoenix!

No doubt I’m definitely in agreement with your assessment of our play so far; just pointing out there are some equally struggling teams in the CAA as well this year. Which isn’t much to hang our hat on, but it is something to hope for as far as wins if we can improve.
