Re: HOW A10 CAN STAY RELEVANT

What? Why? Plenty of other URI teams have won championships, or competed for them, in their sports. Listen, you can just admit this was a poorly thought idea of yours, and we'll all just move on. You don't have to keep digging in here. Maybe it was a poorly thought idea, in fact it was just an idea...

Re: HOW A10 CAN STAY RELEVANT

Did you just bring football into the discussion? Rhody does not play football in the A10. I did because I was thinking of the overall athletic program that would benefit from that change. What? Why?

Re: Coach Sanders contract

They also averaged 33,00 (highest in FCS) last year in 2019, then add in the name Deion Sanders and I'd say it's a steal. Even if they don't win, his name alone continues to put people in the stands.

Re: 2018 - 2019 Women's Basketball Season

If she was half as good of a coach as she is a promoter via twitter this program would be one vying for the conference title. Too much turn over via the members of the team and not enough cohesion. All surface material.

This is a program that historically has struggled, without comparing the...

I was high on Coach LaForce when she started and her first season was promising yet that promise has come and gone. With her salary being I believe the 2nd highest for a head coach within URI athletics, she has yet to show anything that warrants it. When does Thorr throw in the towel???

Re: Women's basketball overseas trip

I'm all for equal opportunities for women but do we think that those resources could be better used with female teams that actually have success (rowing, volleyball, etc). When was the last time women bball had a winning season?
