GW vs Ferrum Game Thread
4-0 GW, coming off a superb 85-57 display against Harvard welcomes Ferrum to the Smith Center next.
Ferrum is a D2, this should not be a very difficult test
Perhaps an opportunity to get some action for some of the very lightly used guys?
Doesn't impact the computer rankings
12 Noon start Monday

Re: GW vs Ferrum Game Thread
Can someone explain to me again why we are playing against a school I never even heard of at 12 noon on a non-holiday Monday? Are they trying to see how few people they can get to attend a game?

Re: GW vs Ferrum Game Thread
I didn't see this post before asking the same thing, with the same tone on another thread.
Deleted it in deference to LSF's well expressed post above.
Not shaking rust off after a long layoff. We just played last night .
And it looks like Ferrum isn't yet a full D2 member ( still in transition).
LSF's question remains?

I assume this is the annual game where GW provides free tickets to schools for field trips.

Their head coach was also an assistant, along with our head coach, on Jim Larranaga‘s big-time George Mason NCAA squad.

Understand the connection.
But how does that explain the odd noon at Monday timing?

No one would be coming to this glorified exhibition at night so I guess they figure they might as well do a daytime game for the faculty and staff when they are on campus 🤷♂️

Re: GW vs Ferrum Game Thread
It should at least get some playing time for the end of the very long bench. CC has said that he likes to use an 8 or 9 man rotation, and it is this type of game where players can make their cases for significant minutes
