Can't take any positives out of that one... It's going to be a long winter, unfortunately.

Re: Game 8: Providence College (Saturday, Dec 5, 7:00pm ESPN

I'm pretty bummed out about this one. Overall, thought we made some great contributions across the board but clearly not enough to win. If we lose at home to a NBE team, what does this mean once conference play hits? Will we be able to even hang with the likes of Dayton and GW?? Anyway, different st...

Re: It's a rivalry. Fuck it.

Truer words have never been spoken . "Win or lose at least I'm not a Friar."

Even if we lose tonight at least I can rest easy tonight with that mindset.

Re: Game 8: Providence College (Saturday, Dec 5, 7:00pm ESPN

I enjoyed looking at the cute little prediction thread that they got going on over on the Friar board. So, I figured I'd put my 2 cents in: School with the high ROI- 67 Elitist, pompous douchebags drowning in student loan debt until they die and still act like their team plays in the Old Big East- 6...

Re: If EC is out for the year... and he is

Worst Friday the 13th ever. Life without EC this year will certainly be a tall order, but I think we can still find success this season. Trying to think as positive as I can over here... -Terrell will be forced into that "go-to-scorer" role and I think we saw small flashes of that Friday n...

Re: Biggie, Jarelle, and Matthew

All great kids and wish them luck in the future. The Biggie transfer has me a little surprised as well. Although, with the abundance of guards we have this was somewhat expected.

Maybe this means there is another big man in the works?? Interested to see what they do with these 3 openings.

Re: 2015 NIT

I remember heading to that game back in 2010. We're lucky we made it over there with those floods. I can recall a stretch of 95 on near the CT/RI line that was nearly under water. Me and a few friends drove to New Haven and took the train in from there. I can remember seeing Mel Kiper Jr. at the New...

Re: Four McGlynn Tranfers to URI from Towson

From what I've read, I think this kid is going to be a great addition to our roster next season. Of course we need another big man, but a 3-point shooter isn't going to be the worst thing for us. More importantly, the 90% FT shooting will be huge. One of the few stats that you can rely on regardless...

Re: Four McGlynn

Needed a shooter... I like this move. Seems like a guy who could provide a spark off the bench.

Now when we go to our smaller lineups, could we dub this "The core four plus Four?"

Hard to see Hurley making a lateral move at this stage. If a higher end ACC or Big Ten job opened up? Maybe. The Big Least? Can't see it.

Re: 2015-16 OOC opponents??

I wouldn't mind scheduling BUFFALO and billing it as the Hurley Bowl!
Should be feasible to schedule a solid mid-major like them.
I too would like a home and home with UConn.
It's the UMass-Lowells and Delaware States of the world that I'm hoping we can limit next year.

Re: A10 Tournament - General Discussion

Wow... was following the gamecast for Davidson/La Salle. Looks like La Salle was scoreless in the last 4:45 of this one, and had a 10 point lead at about that mark.

Incredible.

Re: The Early Line URI vs Davidson

I think we're going to see a lot of TJ in this one-- perhaps close to 30 minutes unless he gets in foul trouble. We may see a few 4-guard lineups just so we can match up with their shooters. Biggie will probably see 20-25 minutes. Possibly even 10-15 minutes of Reischel sprinkled in. Possibly very l...

What a big win! I thought the foul trouble throughout the game for Esho was huge... it seems like he has absolutely killed us in other games up until tonight. Huge games from both Terrell and Garrett.... probably the best "combined output" from them thus far in their young careers. It was ...
