“That I bleed VCU. That I bleed winning.” Actual quote from a VCU player I spoke with earlier today. Shooting for the full story by Monday.

All things considered, feels like a charitable conference slate. No bad roadies, nor stacked challenges. At SLU on 2/5 obviously stands out, but I see @ Fordham on 2/16 as a potential pothole.

VCU schedule is out. Nothing better than New Year's Eve in Olean. Can't wait to ring in 1987. Kidding aside, Rams are not at home from Nov 11 to Dec 3, which is interesting to me.

This should be disqualifying. Not voting/election DQ. If your view is that we should explore a policy where a a third-grader has more technological knowledge than your military, you are unfit for office. Is there an SAT for being allowed to serve in Congress?

Ben Shelton is pulling a 2003 UNCW. They are up seven and you think you have a chance, but you have no chance. Side note: Andy Roddick is a superstar analyst.

Like many things these days, it’s bullshit. We all know it’s bullshit. Thousands of words will be spilled but we all know it’s bullshit. Friend of mine was a TE for Western Michigan in mid 2000s. For the millionth time since Hofstra was screwed in 2006, I want to punch someone in the teeth.

The Avett Brothers just went old school and murdered (in the city) Roanoke. Phenomenal show. Joe Kwan for President. Time for late night college football. Killing time until November.

John McEnroe is 67, playing with Federer against Agassi and Roddick, and still in full control of any ball that hits his racket. Just beautiful. Legend.

Non-hoops note: this is not from that first hunt scene in Jaws. It was a boat docking contest, basically a rodeo on water, and it was a ton of fun. Hoops note: hearing whispers about Sammy Jackson.

The NCAA deserves every single criticism, and then some, but putting VCU against North Carolina in the baseball tournament is a master stroke. There’s hope yet for the world. And with Tennessee as the two-seed, it’s officially the Terrence Hill Regional.

A 9-1 win carries third-seeded VCU to the A10 championship. Dogpile. League correctly decided a 10pm first pitch last night was a bad idea and moved the game to noon today.

VCU Litos @vculitos.bsky.social · 24/05/2026
VCU baseball scores twice in the top of ninth to hold off Rhody 18-16. The two teams play again shortly for the championship. If VCU wins, that’s three wins in one day to claim the championship. Rams played 8 innings of a rain-suspended game vs. St. Joes earlier today. Would be an unreal feat.

Wrap up from New Orleans Jazz Fest: Jon Batiste is a national treasure. Stevie Nicks is Willie Mays in a Mets uniform. Los Skarnales was the most fun band of the four days. Raise the dead energy. Also, VCU signed two guys and I have to go figure that out.

First day of New Orleans Jazz Festival in the books. Biggest surprise: Jon Batiste’s dad and Anthony Grant are doppelgängers.

Saw some great basketball in this joint, a helluva’ fun rivalry. Sad that it’s the Taste of India that drew me back. Wood Selig should rot for ruining a proud basketball program.

VCU 82, UNC 78. There is a certain satisfaction in kicking the living shit out of arrogance.

Winning after being 19 down to GW in January is one thing. Beating North Carolina after being 19 down in the NCAA Tournament is, well, a bourbon-restocking event.

Important framing: UNC did not give up a 19-point lead. It was taken from them.

FINAL: VCU 82, UNC 78. The Tar Heels' 19-point blown lead is the largest by any team in the history of the men's NCAA Tournament. VCU's Terrence Hill Jr. is the first player off the bench with at least 30/5/5 since Indiana's Kent Benson in 1975.

VCU's 11-point comeback in the final five minutes of regulation is the second largest in the history of the NCAAT, per CBS Sports research. Carolina missed its last eight field goals in the game. Hubert Davis ... not ... good.

Whoever at CBS that greenlighted Bruce Pearl should be fired. If you watch the selection show you deserve better. You deserve awkward but smart. Hell, give me Pete Gillen using the “my wife put me in the transfer portal” joke before Pearl.

VCU and North Carolina have never played, which is odd to me, but VCU is 39-17 all time vs. the UNC system:

It's wild that with all its success over the last 25 years, this is the first time VCU has had back to back autobids since 1981.

I'm going to note here before I forget: VCU is ahead of Missouri, NC State, Auburn, SMU, Texas, and the ENTIRE SUPPOSED CUTLINE in Wins Above Bubble. It is *laughable* if they are left out with a loss today. stats.ncaa.org/selection_ra...

Salut to Mark Schmidt. He was always great to me with his time, and didn’t speak in platitudes. One VCU coach said he was the toughest to game plan against. You can get a feel for people in the back halls. Play 18, coach. Have a few. Tell stories. And enjoy your next chapter.

VCU 37, Dayton 36 (H). A game worthy of these two programs. A Scoochie Smith/Dashawn Pierre Flyers kind of team. Rams multi-positional skill an advantage. Except guarding the rim. Feels like Dayton is shooting 103%.
