Since it matters so much to you, you don’t need to live vicariously through others. Embrace the role you played in keeping PC out. The fact that you suck so much that it’s a Q4 game for us is not helpful. We do embrace it, quite well! And if we’re ever a bubble team while PC is terrible and we then...

After we kick out all the loser programs beneath us who keep beating us we should move up in the conference standings !! to this. I argue hard to my Rhody text chat and others how bad we need the Fordham/LaSalle/GW/Duq group out of A10, like many of us on the board. But good PROGRAMS only get ONE y...

Double Bye is the number one goal. Attaining that after the start they had would fully instill the possibility that anything can happen. It usually takes 12 wins to get a top 4 seed with 13 being a safer number. So, go 10-5 the rest of the way and it gets you a double bye. Some would say that is VER...

The RC not having a Jumbotron remains criminal as top list of things that would so quickly change the experience. I would take Harvard’s 50 inch screens they have hanging over the center of the court before ours tucked in corners. The video banners were a huge game changer, Jumbotron would do even m...

Honestly a good way to look at it. Much improved team, now obvious we are well inside the 300's. Next goal is to be comfortably inside 200's because that was far from guarantee when we came out of last season.

In trying to avoid looking too much into one exhibition game against a DII team, I would say I went in with a certain expectation they’d look the same as last year, but they exceeded it rather easily. Could mean nothing, but was fun for first time in 2 years.

HASwatTeam

Paid $14 for a Shaidzon tall boy tonight and guy next to me paid $11 for a 12 oz Whalers. It’s certainly better than not having it, but can’t agree more that there is a right to be taken back by the price when the Dunk has bigger beers for same price up the road.

HASwatTeam

Sam made such a huge play diving on the ball for that jump ball, only for the team to waste it fouling up 3.

Offensive sets were also just okay at best last 3 minutes there too.

I'm a little concerned on attendance - despite the high level of hype for Archie this summer. As mentioned in the scrimmage thread and in published quotes, Archie has mentioned reliance this team will have on packing the RC. Halloween weekend is a tough draw for students to attend a scrimmage, but I...

Wild to think I’m going to sleep this happy on the first day of the Tournament, without URI coming close to playing in it. Practice facility in 2023 will be similar to the Ryan center upgrades Hurley helped make in his second year.

1 step back this season for 2 steps forward sounds ecstatic.

HASwatTeam

So I will be able to watch BTN as long as I have FS1 in my cable subscription?

HASwatTeam

....OK......I will be that guy......what do we do with Jermaine......going forward.....? Had some tough plays down the stretch where seems he couldn't handle the situation. He'll obviously be needed for minutes, but there's just no doubting games like this starts to solidify him being a role player...

GREAT win over BE team AND PC about to lose.

Awesome resilience to have a big lead early and coming back after losing that lead.

HASwatTeam

I mean this seriously, we are now the microcosm of the GOOD and mostly BAD that would/has already come of an era of immediate transfer ability. We are the example of how this could ruin any stability in the sport.

HASwatTeam

I really don't see any chance higher than 1% that he gets drafted. Because of that, this is a good thing.

HASwatTeam

P5’s started calling. He’s going BIG. We can’t, nor will ever be able to compete. Slimy business. This sucks. Based on his IG, simply sounds like he’s being promised bright lights. He certainly has the ability. If the new transfer rules happen, I'm expecting more situations like this. Cox (and ever...

HASwatTeam

Obviously there is the ass-kissing that always happens in those good bye posts to keep in amicable (even when its not the complete truth), but calling Cox a father figure actually makes me think he sees himself having a better opportunity somewhere else - pointing toward the issue with this new age ...

Today's hype feels a lot like March 12th, 2017. Eyes will be on this game tonight, and a win would create so much HYPE for this PROGRAM.

On. To. DAYTON.

Can't slow down, absolute must win.

HASwatTeam

If I woke up tomorrow and heard news that Fordham was leaving just like when Charlotte did, I would be ecstatic. A conference is judged by the teams on the bottom much heavier than teams on the top (most times) and Fordham is an absolute ANCHOR.

HASwatTeam

This is a PROGRAM win, 9 games left till the A10 tourney. Focus time!!!

HASwatTeam

Idk how to pull in a tweet, but Jon Rothstein's (2 tweets) about tonight's game have me running through walls.

HASwatTeam

If we lose, its not the end of the world. But these type of games are a mark of a good PROGRAM. Come a long way in 5 years. GAME DAY!!

HASwatTeam

All things considered its been a while since I have felt this nervous days head of a game in January. They win this game and Friday night on ESPN2 would be a late March atmosphere. Ironically, the thing that calms me the most is knowing they lost the last trap game to Brown, and followed it up with ...

I only watched the second half, and what a half it was! Thats how you defend home court.

The exact college basketball game where you question why you watch this sport the entire time until you see a gut-check win and realize why its all worth it. It may be true that the most impressive thing Fatts did was WILL this team back to life, single-handedly.

HASwatTeam

I do just want to point out that as someone who also gets worked up when we don't get a good crowd to support the team, the issue isn't just with us. I drove down to the Maryland game and that arena was half empty (yes it's a huge arena, but things are relative). I don't care if they didn't know URI...

HASwatTeam

Made the last minute decision to plan a road trip down Saturday morning. In trying to be realistic, I will mark this trip as worth it if I see Fatts have good shot selection, Jermaine provide solid minutes, Martin score 20 pts, and URI be within 10 points at the 10 minute mark second half. If none o...

I need the Semi-Finals thread like I need air to breathe

HASwatTeam

Perspective is such a crazy thing about sports. Seeing where we were 6 games ago when the season was lost to the momentum we have now...tomorrow doesn't feel like a Quarter final or Semi final, feels way bigger. The win-or-go-home montra is resonating.

Two years ago I taught an accounting class and had Will in my front row. You could tell he was tired, and stressed out (this was just after he made the team). I asked him one day what was on his mind and he mentioned that he had to do well in this class because the team was counting on him to get a ...

That was just a lot of fun. Fatts has it somewhere in him to do those things. Lets finish it off then go to Brooklyn and just PLAY HARD.

One of the most exciting times of the year for sure, we have knocked off a LOT of demons since the last time we played at the DUMP. Along with the obvious personnel losses from last year we are coming in as big underdogs, which is one of the best ways to play CBB. Few things in life I love more than...

I love being able to play an instate school. We have 4 Division I teams in this state and they all manage to be in different conferences - that's a mind blowing stat by itself. The fact that we play all 3 of them this year is very cool IMO. Bryant students will make the trip, and even if they're roo...

Can FINALLY turn to the page to next season, put this one behind us, and move forward.

Being a good recruiter is a major part of being a good coach (i.e. Cooley). Good foot to lead off with coming off a good mentor. Congrats!

HASwatTeam

Not sure if this has been said, but Tyrese Martin, Dana Tate AND Jermaine Harris just tweeted that if Cox isn't hired then they're probably gone. Exact words were "Only name I signed up for" by TM. "No disrespect....but I signed up to play for Coach Cox" by JH. "Behind my br...

I love this thread. We lost out on keeping our coach but made an IMPRESSIVE offer. Now we turn the page and move on. So many fans of other local programs (Just one actually) are celebrating today, which is fine. We're a program, we act like it. Its a sad day, but not the LAST day. Its the first to f...

Perspective is always fun for this board. 2 YEARS AGO TODAY the RhodyMBB twitter account tweeted a photo of Dan Hurley in the RC watching as EC put up shots for the first time since his injury with the caption: "Preparation for the 2016-2017 season are underway #GoRhody" And now, here we a...

For some reason I was thinking about Iffy Onyekaba yesterday. Did he ever turn up anywhere? 20 and 10 in his first game as a frosh in 20 minutes (if that). Then, almost literally, nothing else. So weird. Maybe even weirder that I was wondering what happened to him. Iffy is doing well. He has an inf...
