Ten points a game as a senior?

OrangeRam

FG % not where you want but his defense, he will pick your pocket all day. I don't think URI has anyone better.

OrangeRam

The sluggish defense, poor shooting. Where's the enthusiasm, the energy? Best 1 thru 10 talent I have seen at URI, wasted.
It's like the coach has quit, where's the fire?

I do want to thank Fatts for all his effort and hustle. Ain't over yet Fatts, you guys CAN beat anyone in the A 10.

OrangeRam

Coaches salaries? Cooley vs Cox? Let's be serious. Revenue sources of PC and the Big East vs URI and the A 10? Cooley does a decent job going up against some serious competition. Also, Michigan came knocking for Cooley did a great job of playing that for the rediculously big contract. He's no Hurley...

Walker seems to be developing into one of our classic talented undersized power fowards. Ish, with another year....can't wait. And, as mentioned before, the core is here for next year. With some adjustments and solid coaching, this could be a very dangerous team. Glad to hear the Coach take responsi...

OrangeRam

I agree, those Parish McHale years sucked.

OrangeRam

I never understood the last UMass game. Given our depth and that they were so short handed, I think I would have pressed and ran as much as possible. Forget the half court game, let's tire hell out of them. Cox has a solid core going into next year. Certainly has areas to work on as a team, players ...

OrangeRam

Rhody72, what games are you watching? To blame the players? Who run around like they are playing school yard basketball. Turn overs galore, missed defensive assignments, crazy shot selection, and especially losing the close games. There has has been plenty of time to find the strenghts and weaknesse...

OrangeRam

Betrand, Martin, Carey... these guys are good ball players and are certainly capable of so much more, Fatts too. It's one word. Confidence.

Just amazing what Coach Riess has done, enough said.

OrangeRam

If I were Leggett, I'm out of here. I see no future under this coaching.

And we lost again, because .........

OrangeRam

Maria M, your points are well taken. My observation is Rhody has, BY FAR, the most talented 1 thru 10 group of players we have ever had. But 20 turn overs a game and 20% from beyond the arch wont win games. That's not the players fault, it's the coaches and Coach Cox is the captain of this ship. If ...

OrangeRam

Your Dad is right on. UMass is not good, no way in Hell URI should have lost to them.
Get Leggett out on that floor please.

OrangeRam

These guys aren't focused. From free throws, doubling down, and senseless turnovers....... looks like street ball to me.

OrangeRam · Re: 1/6 | Richmond | 6:00PM (CBSSN) Cox is not an A 10 level coach.

Cox is not an A 10 level coach.

OrangeRam · Re: 1/6 | Richmond | 6:00PM (CBSSN) How many more years on the Cox contract?

How many more years on the Cox contract?

OrangeRam

Players talent is there, coaching talent isn't.

OrangeRam

Take a look at Daly's right foot on that crazy 3 point shot. Did he travel?

OrangeRam · Re: 2/19 | @ VCU | 8:00PM (CBSSN) Baron doesn't look that bad anymore.

Baron doesn't look that bad anymore.

OrangeRam

Height is only one factor. I'll mention a few guys that held their own despite being surrounded by taller players. Rodman (6-7) , Barkley (6-6), and the best of them, Wes Unseld (6-7). Those guys dominated.

OrangeRam

Ditto.

OrangeRam

It's about time to stop kicking a dead horse. Hurley is gone. Move on.

OrangeRam

Hey Hassan, send us your brother. We have done very well over the years with New Yorkers.

OrangeRam

These guys looked talented. Scary team for the next 4 years. Welcome Omar.

OrangeRam

I couldn't agree more in rounding this class out. Perfect fit on a heck of a class. I can see all these guys playing minutes this year. Brandon fills a big void on our roster.

OrangeRam

Adams is a combo guard with range that has score over 1500 points in high school.

OrangeRam

Some one has already posted highlights of this kid. Go to our NCAAS or BUST! page, Re Transfer Carousel - 2018 Page 2. You will find it there. This kid will play, and get his shots, no doubt with the best 1 2 point guard tandem URI has ever had. And probably will ever have. And he will play, Nice ra...

OrangeRam

Is this an April fools joke? This guy wasn't even a starter on a so so team. What am I missing?

OrangeRam

With EC and Terrell gone, we need another big guard that can score and a polished SF. Transfers or grads, we have a lot of scoring and experience to replace. Looking a year or two down the road, Brendan would be my choice for that guard position. But what it is is what it is. Either way, it will be ...

OrangeRam

Log jam? What log jam. We are loosing 4, yes 4, multi talented guards. Christion should be back but we are still way short handed. We need another that can play either guard, especially one that can score. This guy is 6'3" and can shoot the rock. If we can still get him here, he will play. An e...

OrangeRam

This guy is just what the team needs. Very good chance he will be playing some solid minutes as a frosh. And that's another good thing about the A 10, if he's talented like his brother, he's playing and he will get recognized. Many at this talent level in some of the big programs are just bench warm...

OrangeRam

What's this speculation and negativity one who is staying and who is not. Think about it as a player. First and foremost, Coach Cox seems well liked and respected by his players and recruits. If I have been sitting on the bench, maybe this is the break I needed to get on the court, so I'm staying. I...

OrangeRam

And the basil leaves on the Pepes pie says your new coach will be ?????

WTF, they forgot to put basil on my pie.

OrangeRam

Seems the players want Coach Cox, they have to believe in their coach.. Coach Cox has my vote.

OrangeRam

We have a kid down here in the New Haven area that shoots lights out. Best high school shooter I've ever seen. NBA range. Tyler Thomas at Amity Regional. He has a wrist injury but give him a year of prep, he's one to watch.

OrangeRam

Oats, Becker, Cox Looks like all 3 are solid. Personally I believe in promoting within first. Cox is well liked, recruits well, played ball, plenty of solid coaching related experience, and a key to me is he is educated. He has that special drive to take things to the next level, MBA. That tells me ...

OrangeRam

Dan stays, I'll bring him up a fresh New Haven pie every home game. Sallys, Pepes, Modern, even a Bar potato pizza. What ever you want Dan. With pleasure.

OrangeRam

You guys cant compare RI and CT. I moved down to CT 30 years ago, was a great place with opportunities. Now, like residents and businesses, I cant wait to get the hell out. Couple years til retirement and RI is one of the places on my radar. Honestly, CT is a place to avoid.

OrangeRam

Modern Pizza is probably the best in New Haven. Pepes still very good, but not as it was 30 years ago. UConn is a long boring drive to the middle of nowhere. 95 to URI is easy plus the train station nearby is huge. UConn job is a risk. So so conference, living off the past. State has big time financ...

OrangeRam

As a Ct resident for over 30 years, I would really think any move to Ct thoroughly. Ct was a great state 30 years ago, place with a future. Today, we are sinking like a rock. Residents and companies are moving out first chance they get. Today, we are a place to avoid. Sorry fellow residents, but you...
