      Also worth noting that Mason beat UNCW … and JMU got crushed by VCU. No big.

      Ah, I forgot to hit the CAA beat. Also worth noting, Mason beat UNCW by one, and UNCW is one of the worst teams in the conference.

      How embarrassing. Beating the worst team by 1 is much worse than losing to the best team by 20.

      I’m not saying it’s embarrassing, it was just worth noting considering that you said JMU “got crushed” but only said “Mason beat UNCW”.

      I think this is residual animosity from JMU beating GMU for a change.

      If JMU wins its first round game in the CAA Tournament, perhaps GMU will meet them again. In the meantime, Mason will be over here, enjoying their first round bye.

      Do I need to separate you two?

      In other news, Richmond won last night and improved to 15-13. They are now in the middle of the pack in a middle of the pack conference. How about that!

      In other words, Richmond is staying medium.
