Re: Any Guesses?

Well, they just announced their non-conference schedule?

SCHEDULE

Somewhat anticlimactic, but always a fun reveal.

Go 'Dores always!

Re: Kendal Cheesman in the Transfer Portal

No question she’ll be able to develop as a player more if she plays on a team that’s a better fit for her skill set. Once VU went all-in on a ball hawking, full court press, the die was pretty much cast. Hope to see her shine at Belmont!

Re: More details released about new basketball practice facility

Edit to add: FWIW, it would seem that the new basketball facilities are not physically connected to Memorial in any way. I hope they'll reconsider where things are headed with Memorial, but am not holding my breath. FWIW I think there will be a skywalk connecting the two. A skywalk sounds reasonabl...

Re: More details released about new basketball practice facility

The greatest home court advantage is 10,000 screaming fans feeling the impact they are having on the game. Vandy will never provide that with the current configuration. Shea has remarked several times that she feels isolated from the team and her assistants during the game. The advantages of the un...

Re: More details released about new basketball practice facility

I'm guessing Dudley is being/will be replaced section by section. But- as poor of a decision as just-about-everything was in Memorial's original incarnation- there's NO WAY you can destroy that tradition & built in home court advantage. I used to think that, but no more. I've seen too many grea...

Re: More details released about new basketball practice facility

I wish they would have just razed football, baseball, and basketball and started over, right-sizing the facilities and starting fresh with a better layout. Maybe an unpopular opinion. They keep trying to make these old facilities “modern” but Memorial and Dudley are too big and too old imo.

I'm afraid that barring some reconsideration by the Powers That Be, it's going to happen. :cry:

Maybe, hopefully by then we'll have all adjusted. :roll:

Re: Two Freshmen and Coach Ralph Liberty Postgame

Led in scoring by two freshmen, and advancing to the WNIT Sweet 16? That's a pretty cool way for Coach Ralph to close out her first season at home! The building blocks sure seem to be in place.
Onward!
Anchor Down!

Re: "Refreshed Visual Identity"

I flat out don't like it. The most glaring thing is that the text and artwork don't complement one another at all. Looks like it was done by a college administrator and not a graphic designer. And as a stand-alone V? I much prefer this: VU# That oak leaf is clever dammit, and needs no updating. It i...

Re: Jordyn, Sacha and Coach Ralph Postgame

I only saw the second half last night, but what a great win for the team and another impressive stat line for Jordyn! I love that they had the week+ to prep and that it was a huge step forward for Jordyn to have the confidence to be an offensive threat from long range. YES! Fun to hear Coach talk ab...

Re: Brinae Alexander Will Not Play in WNIT

After little research, found all the answers I need. Sigh. I don’t know what to think about Brinae not participating. I find it a bit peculiar but apparently they all had it sorted out a while back. Fingers crossed that we can get someone to step into that scoring role…. real quick. https://vucommo...

Re: Brinae Alexander Will Not Play in WNIT

I suspect the team has been practicing without her then, so hopefully the other guards are excited for the opportunity this presents.

Re: Brinae Alexander to move on from Vandy and enter the transfer portal

Glad you appreciated the snark, VW. I was snickering when I wrote it as well. ;) I think one of the reasons I get a bad feeling from transfers who are also the team's top scorers is because it occurred to me that they've potentially been playing games with the mindset of maximizing their scoring sta...
