Number 22 for Stony Brook shot so badly we asked him if he wanted to transfer here.

Smokinjimit2

A solid improvement in the Mitchell department.

Smokinjimit2

Get the popcorn. This is going to be fun to watch.

Smokinjimit2

Impossible they are going to the NBA.

Smokinjimit2

What I would give to hear Rods take
On all this.

Smokinjimit2

I turned the game off at half time. My wife asked me why. I said I know the outcome.

Hire Al Skinner to just recruit guards. ( this is kind of a joke).

Smokinjimit2

Harrick
Penders
Hurley
Skinner
Baron
Claude/Malone/Cox
Jerry D

Baron is below Claude Cox and Malone.

Remember when Hurley took over how bad the program was. There was a strong chance we wouldn’t have won a game with Baron.

Smokinjimit2

Maybe he’s tanking the season so we get a good draft pick?

Smokinjimit2

Wow. Just wow. Not mentally tough. Can’t teach that or coach it.

Smokinjimit2

Does Umass still have that asshole for an assistant coach?

Smokinjimit2

I’m not sure why anyone wouldn’t want Rick Pitino coming to the Ryan center. Makes no sense to me.

Smokinjimit2

That’s was epically bad. Soooo bad.
Shot selection
Rebounding
Stupid fouls.

Smokinjimit2

I think this team would blow us out at full strength.

Smokinjimit2

I’d say that’s a personal problem. He is a URI legend. You’ll never forget some of his big moments (especially vs OU). It’s more just unfortunate he was never able to get back in the tournament. He’s a gamer whoa. URI legend? pump the brakes. kid was good, real good. well above average, great caree...

Smokinjimit2

Why would we want them? The only reason they were any good is because of a coach that isn't even there anymore. 1963, 1964, 1966, 1968, 1985, 2018, 2021. Those are the times they've made the tournament. Feels like we just added Chicago Fordham Ah here it is, people being pissy just for the sake of ...

Smokinjimit2

We might play better than we did last year. The half court offense will run better with Harris gone. The transition offense won’t be as good without Fatts.

I see us as 9th place.

Smokinjimit2

The team should hire a social media firm. Help the players increase their presence which would make them more money. Get a rep as the school that will help you get paid.

But we will probably get around to it in 10 years.

Smokinjimit2

No one is out of our reach if we pay them enough.

The new world of college basketball.

Smokinjimit2

The real question is why is he staying in college?

Smokinjimit2

If you play 5 seasons you shouldn’t get in any all time record books.

Smokinjimit2

.5 puts a game and 1.2 rebounds

Not too many power 5 lining up

Smokinjimit2

I see us in the bottom half. Nothing to get excited about.

Smokinjimit2

It’s too bad Bunky retired. He was due to write his
URI is lucky to have a basketball program and we all have a nerve to want the program to be good article.

We are also lucky to have coach... any coach

Smokinjimit2

He’s not in a position to demand anything.

Smokinjimit2

Same mistakes on defence they were making 20 games ago. No heart. No fire no clue. You think this season was bad? Wait till next year.

Smokinjimit2

The only chance we have to win a single game is Fatts.
If he gets hot ( he hasn’t all year) but if he does we can beat any a-10 team.

Smokinjimit2

Take away that Fatts is a good defender?

Why would you take away half his game if you are going to
Talk about his game? And be honest.

He’s a great defender.

I had a tear in my eye when he kissed the Court after the game.

Smokinjimit2

So we are playing at home which means crappy first half. Frantic paced comeback to win in the second half.

Smokinjimit2

Play a zone stick one of them on top. Like we did with Lamar back in the day

Smokinjimit2

If his brother didn’t get hurt we could be 12-5 or 11-6.

Smokinjimit2

We played Texas when Penders was coaching. We blew the out. Loudest I’ve ever heard the civic center was when I believe Samuel got fouled on a dunk. Place went crazy.

Smokinjimit2

Another solid game yesterday

Smokinjimit2

Not sure what Cox has left on his contract but there is no chance we will fire him and pay him for any years left on his contract. The school and sports are bleeding money right now.

Smokinjimit2

He is my favorite player to watch this year. The game has really slowed for him as the season has gone on. Fun to watch and will only get better.

Smokinjimit2

5 minutes...4 turnovers

Great job guys.

Smokinjimit2

Our guards are sloppy. That will not change. We will have some games where we turn it over less but we will continue to make mental mistakes the rest of the season. Fatts and Shepard aren’t going to all of a sudden start taking care of the ball. Fatts may be the worst shooter I’ve ever seen who has ...

Smokinjimit2

You can’t stop the Funk. You can only hope to contain him. He was a terrible matchup for Mitchell. Who I don’t think put a hand up to distract him when taking a 3. That’s on the coach to recognise that. I watched Harris on defence away from the ball on A few possessions. He was lost a lot of the tim...

Smokinjimit2

The D league?

Smokinjimit2

Rod is definitely missed.

Smokinjimit2

Bryant is blowing out UMASS right now.

Smokinjimit2

Embarrassed at home. We are not very good. I don’t see us getting better. I use to think our guards were good.
They are not. They are avg at best. Harris getting hurt so now we have no size and below avg guard play.
Going to be a very long year.

Smokinjimit2

Does anyone believe this is Rick’s last stop?

Smokinjimit2

The the amount of guys on this team that fall asleep on defense I see a ton of backdoor cuts against us. Lots of easy baskets. I still think we win but we will look bad against them for stretches at a time. If we start line we did last game coach Cox needs to do a mass substitute to shake things up.

Smokinjimit2

This ones on the coach.

Smokinjimit2

Terrible transition defense. Jogging back on D.

Smokinjimit2

Not as good as we thought. Wisconsin is not only better physically but their basketball team IQ is a lot higher than ours. It shows almost every possession. I don’t expect much different in the second half. Maybe we could pull a “meatballs” and pants them and then run to the bus instead of playing t...

Smokinjimit2

My guess is because he put the whole team at risk so he could get some action? Selfish and stupid.

Smokinjimit2

I love watching Kentucky get blown out.

Smokinjimit2

What channel is the bc game?

Smokinjimit2

Shoot free throws like we did the first 2 games we lose.

Shoot free throws like the last 2 games and we win.
