Re: 1/28 | George Mason | 7:00PM (YurView/Stadium)

Another solid road win for Rhody! Friday night is gonna be electric! Hearing there was less than 200 tickets left as of yesterday afternoon. Let’s sell it out! Also, ICYMI, NBC10 followed me around during the Duquesne game and aired a nice feature during last night’s broadcast https://twitter.com/jv...

Re: 1/22 | Duquesne | 7:00PM (ESPN+/YurView)

I agree with the sentiments about Harris. Anyone who can’t see the improvement is blind. He’s still developing his game and sure, it’s slower than most have hoped & he’s still making some mistakes out there - he’s making strides and fully expect him to be a star in his last 2 seasons here.

Maybe EZ Buckets can explain why the Cue Live app is not working for so many people!! I’ll touch on this quickly - the short answer is no one knows.
