Re: Ryan Center In-Game Experience - Issues and Upgrades

Whenever there’s a timeout or free throws, the scoreboard puts up commercial stuff, instead of the team stats. This is the time when you want to see the stats, not when the game is going on.

Re: 12/6 | Providence | 7:00PM (ESPN2)

The one negative last night was the scoreboard. Before, they put up adds after every foul, so you can’t see the players stats, last night they did it after every URI basket. That is totally bush league. Put the adds on the ribbon, not over the players stats!!!

Re: PC Game

Pipkins was on a Umass team that had serious chemistry problems last year. Remember 3 suited active players for UMass sitting on the bench during pregame warmup. Pipkins leaves UMass for PC and now they have serious chemistry problems. Just coincidence?? Don’t think so. Just deserves for Cooley goin...

Re: Jermaine Harris - dramatic improvement?

Confidence is extremely important in sports, particularly basketball. I believe Jermaine badly needs a boost by stringing together a few improved games, and that bashing him on this board is counter productive.

Re: Ryan Center In-Game Experience - Issues and Upgrades

Anyone traveling to Ryan Center via Old North Rd from the North knows how horrendous that road is, potholes everywhere. URI should get someone to fix this mess, it’s embarrassing.

Re: Note To Dan Hurley

I think I just heard on a Channel 12 interview with Dan Hurley, that Hurley is going to re-recruit the recruits that have committed to URI to go to UConn, URI paid for the coaches to go recruit these players, anybody else hear that, I hope I’m wrong.

Re: Another RI Perspective on URI basketball

As far as the statement that PC made the NCAA tournament last year, what they made was the playin tournament, which they lost. By its definition, playin means that if you win you get into the tournament. Since they lost, which they usually do in tournaments, they did not make the tournament last year.

Re: Donaldson slamming Rhody fan base on Twitter

Donaldson can’t handle the fact that URI is the better team two years in a row. Last year, although they beat us at the Dunk, URI ended up ranked higher, better RPI, and actually won a game in the tourney while PC LOST in a play-in game, which shouldn’t count as making the tournament. This year we w...

Re: Should the Ryan Center Serve Beer at URI Basketball Games?

Ryan center should have an attached pub, where you can get a beer and a pub dinner, before or after the game, at reasonable prices. That is what makes the Dunk a good experience, where you can meet friends before or after a game.

Re: FIRE DAN

I think that Fordham coach might be worth a look for Rhody, beating Dayton and URI this season is quite a feat from the league's perennial bottom feeders.

Re: Game #25: Fordham Wednesday Feb 15, 7:00PM Ryan Center

Hurley once again totally out coached and out classed. He makes it embarrassing to be a URI fan. I'm convinced his team totally blocks him out, especially after another big time loss like Dayton, he's even harder to take. In my opinion he'd be the perfect coach for Rutgers, where losing and mental a...

The captain of this ship, Thorr Bjorn, needs to save this ship. 5 Years is enough of Hurley. He should go back to high school coaching like his father.

Gray killed us. He penetrated at will. Should have tried a zone. Houston got most of the loose balls and rebounds and hit their critical shots, we didn't, 2nd half collapse again.

URI should aggressively press PC, and utilize our bench more to do this. PC's guards are turnover prone.

I responded to KMac article in Projo, which said that URI doesn't deserve to be in top 25 and his reasons why. I said that it's just like him to rain on Rhody's parade, given his long history of putting URI down while praising PC at every turn. He responded that he is just being fair and balanced, j...

Re: A-10 refs for URI Games Poll

Does anyone know of email address to address our complaints to A10 commissioner. Refs are out of control. Refs can toss Hurley, but they shouldn't be taking it out on our players and fans. Also, what are the names of last nights refs.

Re: Poll:: what is the reason we are losing these close game

i Vote for option D , Hurley always acting like Chucky from the horror movie on the sidelines , has got all the officials against us, and this has resulted in many of our losses. It seems to me the officials target Hassan, as he's our best player.
