Re: The Official URI’s Head Coach Thread....

I'm not really inspired by Becker. Winning at Vermont is impressive, but that is a niche job. You can only get certain kinds of players there and he would need to recruit a whole different type of player to URI. Cox and Oats can recruit here right away.

Stupid q, but how do I legally bet on a game? I have no idea and have never done it before but would love to put $ down on URI. Legally...you go to Vegas (or elsewhere in Nevada).

Re: 3/9 | VCU Rams | 12PM (NBCSN) (A10 Quarterfinal)

Not that we necessarily needed it, but today's win is doubly big in the sense that we've now likely solidified our seat as an at-large. I was fearful that if we dropped today's game, we'd really be limping in to selection Sunday.

Last two home games should be a rout. Not worried.

Closing the regular season at Davidson could be interesting as the Wildcats will likely be playing for seeding and to knock off a ranked opponent on senior night. Hopefully the Rams will also be playing for seeding... and not look past them.
