Dukes fanatic? Then you already know — Monday, June 2 is a date to circle, underline, and maybe even tattoo on your purple-and-gold heart 💜💛. That’s because the 2025 JMU Coaches Caravan is pulling into town and bringing the heat 🔥 to Hardywood West Creek!

🎤 Who’s Coming to Town?

This isn’t just any old meet-and-greet — we’re talking a powerhouse lineup of JMU Athletics royalty:

• Matt Roan – JMU Athletic Director and the man with the master plan 🧠
• Bob Chesney – New Head Coach of JMU Football 🏈 (come meet the guy tasked with leading us into Sun Belt dominance!)
• Preston Spradlin – Men’s Basketball’s new commander 🏀 ready to keep the hoops hype alive
• Sean O’Regan – WBB’s fearless leader back again and always reppin’ the purple & gold proudly 👊

Whether you’re hyped about Coach Chesney’s energy, curious about Coach Spradlin’s vision, or ready to run it back with Coach O’Regan — this is your chance to hear it all straight from the source!

🍻 Vibes, Victory, and JMU Pride

Hardywood West Creek is the perfect spot to bring the RVA Dukes together — great beer, beautiful setting, and even better company 🍺✨. Mingle with fellow fans, ask questions, get pumped for the 2025–26 season, and maybe even score some giveaways or gear. It’s what summer kickoff dreams are made of.

Plus, there’s something special about being in a crowd of RVA Dukes, where the 804 meets the 540 in the most purple & gold way possible 💥.

Let’s Go Dukes! 💜🐶💛
