My point was that a random game in the A10 will be no picnic; and don't expect VCU to vanish in the conference race; as they will be a threat to the end.
If UD scrimmages Illinois, then folks say wow look at the big time program UD practiced against; but if VCU loses to them, you say Illinois isn't worth a crap.

VCU is a horrible outside shooting team, period. As was the case under Shaka, they still get incredible athletes that can leap small backboards in a single bound. With the 30 second shot clock they're finding themselves having to rely more on medium/longer range jumpers then attacking the glass as they've always done. And HAVOC isn't what it used to be either, at least as long as the refs are consistently applying/enforcing the hand check rule.
