VCU has a kid, senior Briante Weber, who is worth watching - he is within reach of the all time career steals record - he needs just 69 more -
and has been averaging FOUR steals per game...
Otherwise they are a relatively young team with ten freshman & sophomores and only one junior and only two seniors that see any significant playing time.

tough news for a great kid that plays for VCU

Briante Weber tore his ACL yesterday and is done for his senior season and his career.
He was ever so close to the all time NCAA record for steals but will not eclipse it now..
