Agree that they were only playing 8 in those three games but all 8 easily made double digit numbers. My point is more that in our last two games, we played 7 in double figures and our 7th men were Ayo & Vince respectively and against Creighton only the six starters played double digit minutes. This speaks to both depth and quality of the depth without Brady & Glover. Hopefully Glover returns very soon and Rick works Prey into more minutes. Don't expect this to hurt us tonight, more of a longer term issue.

We’re lucky to have a week off starting on Jan 22nd. I’m hopeful Glover will be healthy by next week, and then the guys can get a rest

This is a very important and not easy game. Villanova and Creighton look like the teams with the best chance at the NCAA outside of Marquette, UCONN and SJU. It wouldn't be great to be 0-2 against those teams with Georgetown lurking.

Georgetown concerns me more than Nova and Creighton. They killed Creighton by 28 and were dead even at Marquette with minutes to go. I’ll guess we will find out more when they play the Johnnies next Tuesday.

Richmond is coming off a 37-minute game and averaged about 35 across the last three big east games. All the starters have had recent games where they logged around 35 minutes.

The good part is that we have to use our best lineup for most of the game.
 
I remember a few years ago some of us were “bantering” on the board about the “dream” of playing “meaningful” conference games again. Well, we had a few last season but now I know we are going to have a few more this season.

Tonight is a huge opportunity with a decent crowd against an ok Villanova team. Of course, the name “Villanova” gives them a little more stature than the current team deserves. Opportunity is knocking and this is close to a must win game for defeating the same old same old narrative. Hopefully the team comes ready to play. No excuses not too.
 
Been refreshing the websites the tickets are too expensive for where they are in the arena. Wish I can go, but I will have a better experience on television.
