We were talking teams and this guy suggested moving it over here.
Our big men are kind of skinny and young but like you said Blair is tough, that guy was a big recruit Tennessee and some others offered. My scouting report for our team would say the guard play is going to be more our strength. Jenkins and Ingram are the most herlded. One came from UNLV the other from Wake Forest, they are pretty good, and Captain and Hinnat are solid as well.
I am interested in seeing your scoring guard. From looking at your website I understand you guys stream the games for free? We get a couple of D2's this week which is why I am looking ahead, which is good IMO for this team to gel with so many new players so we should be 4-1 going into that game.

Richmond is young and started 4 freshman who were literally playing in their first collegiate game but they hit a shot a the end to send it into OT. You guys look pretty decent and will get better as I like a couple of your freshman a lot. Gabe Blair is gonna be great! We can talk more in the basketball section. Thanks for setting the record straight on your football team though. It seems to be a common mistake about ECU. Side note. Some of the best game dunks I ever witnessed, had happen to my team etc was against ECU back in my day when I had to guard Blue Edwards! He was a ridiculous athlete.Yeah, I watched that game online and was disappointed. Our guys are just about as young. I felt like we kind of got hosed by the refs late in the game with some foul calls, and even the Richmond radio guys agreed, but we still had our chances and did get it done.

I am also the guy that you will hear when you watch our webcasts online. I think they are still free. Someone will have to let me know if that is not true starting tomorrow night. We open our home schedule with Cinn Christian and will not get tested until the Pirates come to town. You are right about you guys being young. I was impressed with your guards though too. They all pump fake and give you one or 2 power dribbles to get to the hoop. They can all shoot the 3 ball too. Should be a good game. That night is alumni night in the Vines Center and we are retiring the all time leading scorer Karl Hess' number. Yes he is the Karl Hess that is an ACC official. They will bring all of us Basketball Alum out to mid court for the ceremony. I am looking forward to that night for many reasons. I have already begun my homework on ECU (as you can tell). Assistant Coach Mack McCarthy was on the Big South Conference television package a few seasons ago then he was coaching women's hoops at Georgia Tech. He is a former head coach that should be able to guide Ricky Stokes' staff. I keep up with McCarthy through email over the years. Good guy. I wish the Pirates much success (except that cold night in Dec when they come to Lynchburg).
