Enjoyed it! Ryan is just a bit too wired for me. Yes, a great facility but looked very dark and reminded me of the NY Worlds Fair when every room outdoes the previous one with a mural, a saying, or a cooler chair to recover in while playing xbox. Is that before the tutor or after? The nerf basket by the whirlpool was a nice touch. Was also surprised that Siegel only holds 8500. I thought it was more like 12,500.
The only comparison to VCU that really matters is the coaching staff. Obviously VCU has a great basketball tradition and Martelli has a system that proved successful last year. My jury is still out on CC. On paper GW should take a big stride forward. I'm most curious about Dylan James and can't wait to see how he gets utilized. If this team shows some discipline by valuing each and every possession and limiting turnovers with on-the-money passes, I'll praise CC. Many of these players have been well coached at prior stops and now CC has to unify and coach them to success with his system. Only a few more months to wait.
