VCU vs Saint Louis: Large brawl erupts between fans, delaying college basketball game

CNN
—

A large brawl which appeared to involve at least a dozen fans broke out at a men’s college basketball game between Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and Saint Louis on Tuesday, causing the game to be halted for a number of minutes.

With Saint Louis leading 69-63 and 1:10 remaining, a fight at Chaifetz Arena in Missouri spilled out over rows of seats and down onto the floor near the VCU bench. It is not clear what caused the fight to break out.

Security and police quickly rushed in to try and break it up, while players on the court remained in their huddles. CBS Sports coverage also picked up other fans apparently booing those involved in the fight.

CNN has reached out to Saint Louis University and VCU for comment.

Footage captured by CNN affiliate KSDK News appeared to show an older man emerging from the melee with blood on his face and neck.

The game eventually resumed after a delay of about seven minutes, according to The Associated Press, and the Billikens completed their 78-69 win over the Rams.

Saint Louis’ Gibson Jimerson racked up a game-high 26 points, complemented by Kobe Johnson scoring 19 with six rebounds, and Robbie Avila adding 14 points, seven rebounds and three assists. Phillip Russell and Zeb Jackson each scored 15 for VCU.

It is unclear what led to the fight breaking out at Chaifetz Arena.

In his post-match press conference, Billikens head coach Josh Schertz chose to focus on the positive energy brought by fans.

“Our guys were feeding off the energy of the home crowd. They were into it. They lifted us at times, when we were tired. Students were awesome,” he said. “We don’t get through this game without them.”

The win – Saint Louis’ fifth in a row at home – halts VCU’s six-game winning streak and draws the Billikens level with the Rams in second place in the Atlantic 10 Conference (A-10), behind George Mason.

Having already played each other once this season before Tuesday – a 78-62 win for VCU on January 14 – the teams can only meet again this season if they do so in the A-10 conference tournament in March.

In a shocking turn of events, a large brawl erupted between fans during the VCU vs Saint Louis college basketball game, causing a significant delay in the game.

The altercation started in the stands and quickly escalated, with punches being thrown and chaos ensuing. Security and officials were forced to intervene to break up the fight and restore order.

The incident left many fans shaken and bewildered, as college basketball games are typically known for their spirited but friendly atmosphere. It is unclear what sparked the brawl or if any arrests were made.

As a result of the altercation, the game was delayed for several minutes as the situation was brought under control. Both teams were eventually able to resume play, but the incident left a dark cloud over what was supposed to be a competitive and exciting matchup.

This serves as a stark reminder of the importance of sportsmanship and respect among fans, as incidents like these have no place in the world of college athletics. Let’s hope that steps are taken to prevent such behavior in the future and that fans can enjoy the game in a safe and respectful manner.

Five coaches that could be a great fit for Indiana basketball over Mike Woodson

Leave a reply

It is clear now that Indiana head coach Mike Woodson is on the hot seat after the loss to Maryland adn the way Woodson acted after the game. The Hoosiers have lost four of their last five games and are ruining their chances at making it into the NCAA Tournament, which is just a little over a month away.

After the final buzzer last night, Woodson seemed like he couldn’t get out of the gym fast enough until forward Luke Goode turned him around to go shake hands with the Maryland coaching staff and bench. The boos rained down on Woodson, but that is no excuse not to shake hands postgame.

It seems like in the last two years, Woodson has lost control of this basketball program and is taking it in the wrong direction. The fans have already stated “Fire Woodson” chants during a home game before, and they certainly will keep doing it if nothing changes. The Mike Woodson experiment might be coming to a close in Indiana either mid-season or after the season.

If Woodson were to be fired anytime in the coming months, Indiana would need to bring in a new coach, but not one with very little coaching experience; they need to bring in a seasoned veteran who can build a winning culture that Indiana basketball is used to.

So if Woodson is fired, here are five coaches that Indiana seriously needs to consider bringing in.

Chris Beard has a lot of head coaching experience with a lot of big-time programs in college basketball. Before being brought in as the Ole Miss Rebels head coach, he spent a season and a half with the Texas Longhorns, five seasons with the Texas Tech Red Raiders, a season with the Little Rocker Trojans, two seasons with the Angelo State Rams, and a season with the McMurry War Hawks.

Beard has had some legal trouble in the past, but the Rebels gave him another chance at a head coaching position, and it has paid off. The Rebels were a team on the rise last season, and this season picked up where they left off. The Rebels have hit a bit of an SEC slide in the middle of the season, but he has been able to get his team on track in the past.

The biggest thing Beard could bring to Indiana would be a winning culture, but the Hoosiers need a solid culture in general with good guys both on and off the court.

Scott Drew has been coaching at Baylor since 2003, so getting him to Indiana may be a long shot, especially when he didn’t leave last season with some high-level positions open. Drew has done a lot of winning with the Bears and has built a program that is used to winning, something Indiana has had in the past.

Drew would bring a lot to Indiana, which includes recruiting. The Hoosiers have been fortunate in the recruiting game in the past few years, but Drew would bring a name to Indiana that recruits will want to play for. Drew has won almost double the games he has lost at Baylor and Indiana fans are used to a winning culture, which Drew could easily bring back to Indiana.

Mick Cronin is a proven winning basketball coach, and that is something Indiana desperately needs. The Hoosiers don’t need to try any more experiments; they need someone who has won and can continue to win no matter where they are.

Cronin hit the headlines this season for calling out his entire team for being soft after a big loss to Michigan. The Bruins have a great squad, but Cronin called out his team for being lazy and not meeting his level of intensity. That is the very reason Cronin would be a great fit at Indiana because the Hoosiers are a team that the fanbase will certainly meet his intensity.

Woodson has built a bit of a soft culture of basketball at Indiana, and the Hoosiers need someone who is going to call them out when they get soft or lazy, something that has been missing in Indiana for the last four years. Cronin could be the shot of energy this team needs if brought to Indiana.

Nate Oats has really come into his own at Alabama and would be a great fit at Indiana. Oats led his team to the Final Four last season and almost took out a dominant Purdue team with Zach Edey on their squad. Oats has led Alabama to four straight NCAA Tournament appearances and is on his way to his fifth this season right now.

One thing that a lot of people have taken notice of Oats this season was the benching of star Mark Sears against LSU. Sears was not playing well in the first half, so Oats went with a different lineup in the second half that ultimately got it done to get the win. Oats didn’t talk a lot about it other than saying he went with the guys that did what needed to be done.

Right now, Indiana could use a guy who isn’t afraid to ruffle some feathers and do the hard thing. Oats is proving that it doesn’t matter what the name is on the back of the jersey, if you aren’t playing up to his standards, then you aren’t playing, and that is a winning culture right there.

Bruce Pearl has also had his fair share of problems throughout his coaching career, but the biggest thing about Pearl compared to the rest of the head coaches on this list. Pearl has said that the Indiana head coach job was his dream job.

Back in 2023, after playing the Hoosiers, Pearl, when talking about the Indiana basketball program, said that it was his dream job and would have loved to coach there, but the timing was never right. Pearl got his head coach start in the state of Indiana at Southern Indiana, making it to the NCAA Division II Tournament every season there, winning it in 1995.

Pearl has done winders at Auburn in the last few seasons, now being the No. 1 team in the country. If the timing was right, Indiana could lure Pearl away from Auburn if the position was open in Bloomington.

Brad Stevens: The former Butler and Boston Celtics coach has a proven track record of success at both the college and professional levels. His experience and basketball IQ would make him a great fit for Indiana basketball.
Thad Matta: The former Ohio State and Butler coach has a strong recruiting background and a history of success in the Big Ten. Matta’s coaching style and ability to develop players could make him a great fit for the Hoosiers.
John Beilein: The former Michigan and Cleveland Cavaliers coach is known for his offensive creativity and player development. Beilein’s experience in the Big Ten and ability to recruit top talent could make him a great fit for Indiana basketball.
Chris Holtmann: The current Ohio State coach has quickly established himself as one of the top coaches in the Big Ten. Holtmann’s success on the recruiting trail and ability to develop players could make him a great fit for the Hoosiers.
Archie Miller: The former Indiana coach may not have worked out in Bloomington, but he has a strong track record of success at Dayton. Miller’s coaching style and ability to recruit could make him a great fit for Indiana basketball if given another opportunity.

What’s wrong with UNC basketball? – Tar Heel Times

Leave a reply

Posted Jan 27, 2025

The bottom line: UNC can’t score in the post, doesn’t make 3-pointers at a high clip and is terrible on the offensive glass. Even with a roster littered with veteran guards, that’s a recipe for an underwhelming and drought-prone offense. Is there a fix? Not a full one, no — not this season at least. Carolina would be wise, though, to lean on Ian Jackson more.

What’s wrong with UNC basketball?

UNC basketball has long been a powerhouse in college basketball, but this season has been a major disappointment for fans. The Tar Heels have struggled to find their footing, with inconsistent performances and a lack of chemistry on the court.

One of the biggest issues facing UNC basketball this season is the lack of leadership on the team. With several key players leaving for the NBA draft last year, the Tar Heels have been left without a true leader to step up and guide the team. This has led to a lack of cohesion on the court and a struggle to find consistency in their play.

Another issue facing UNC basketball is their lack of depth on the roster. With injuries to key players and a lack of production from role players, the Tar Heels have been forced to rely heavily on their starters, leading to fatigue and a lack of energy late in games.

Coach Roy Williams has also come under fire for his coaching decisions this season. Many fans have questioned his lineup choices and in-game adjustments, leading to frustration and disappointment among the fan base.

Overall, it seems that a combination of factors has contributed to UNC basketball’s struggles this season. Whether it be a lack of leadership, depth, or coaching decisions, the Tar Heels will need to make some changes if they hope to turn their season around and make a run in the postseason.
