Heaven forbid a beat writer have an opinion that isn't positive
Koch does a great job. Yes, everyone is allowed to disagree with his opinion. Fine. However, commenting on his body says a lot more about you than it does his writing. Get a life.

Looking forward to one of these two conversations with non-Rhody fans:
If Hurley leaves: "URI will never be committed to being a perennial contender, they'll never compete with the big boys, etc."
If Hurley stays: "I can't believe the state is spending $X on a BASKETBALL COACH"
