Lets Go Rams!

It was really nice to see the VCU Rams in the Final Four this year. Yes, I am a Richmond, Virginia native so this was definitely a suprise to me and thousands of other fans. Six years ago the Rams were a nobody team that played in the CAA division were competition wasn't anything like the SEC or Big East Conferences. With the help of there farely new coach Shaka Smart the VCU Rams have come together to make a super squad and put us on the map. I love to see these no name teams step up during tournament time and play their hearts out.

The reason VCU is so dynamic is the way they spread the floor against opponents. Everyone on that team can shoot even the big man. Teams like Kansas who that beat in the elite 8 didn't know how to play against them because nobody knew how to guard them. Kansas was a much bigger team and had more experienced players, but didn't know that VCU had the range that they did. In the Final Four appearance against Butler they could have been more aggressive on the offensive side. Butler definitely watched some film before that game because they weren't letting the Rams get any good wide open outside shots.

I think the game is changing and unknown and smaller schools are getting better. It's nice to see that Duke and North Carolina weren't in the Championship again, or some big school. It's looking good for VCU and I hope they play like this every year. Go Rams and keep up the great work.
