I've had the opportunity to sit in on a few practices the past few weeks, and I feel very confident saying that after tonight, you guys will be very, very pleased with what you see out there tonight.

In my opinion, I think all the scholarship players-but Butler-will get some good burn this year.

Ryan Rowdy

As Ace said, he worked the night camps this year.

Seemed like a really good guy. A nice addition to an already outstanding staff.

Ryan Rowdy

TJ has looked fantastic thus far. Looks to be in great shape and is a very good leader on the floor.

Ryan Rowdy

I'd assume dealing with filing reports, helping with video, probably over look the managers, etc.

Extremely fortunate to be working alongside a fantastic staff at URI. Can't wait to get started.

Ryan Rowdy

Replacing Ben Wood, perhaps?

Ryan Rowdy

In Joe Lunardi's latest bracket (the 15th) he has:

Butler (5 seed)
VCU (8 seed)
St. Louis (11 seed)
La Salle (11 seed)

With Temple & St. Joes on his "First Four Out" list. Who knows what it'll look like when he updates it.

Ryan Rowdy

The 49ers are sitting smack dab on the bubble. A couple of impressive wins over the next 27 days (Selection Sunday) should lock up a bid assuming a there are no major shockers from the BCS conferences.

Ryan Rowdy

Watching the replay, that was a beautiful cross over that almost dropped the defender.

Ryan Rowdy

I love his honesty and how blunt he is. I love when a coach says screw being politically correct...this is what's REALLY happening!

Can't help but think those comments are being sent mostly towards Nik.

Ryan Rowdy

Neutral. They play in a weaker conference, and even if they do make it I would feel like our season was still better. I truly find it hard to be mad when Baron leaving gave us The Hurley bros and the bright future. I heard this in a song before and I tie it to my views on Baron, "I wish him wel...

Ryan Rowdy

Ryan Rowdy...I got the definite impression it was Providence College. I was rocked by the thought and my mind was racing to think 'did I ever hear that in the media back then???' What do you guys say? Was there ever a tidbit in the sports news or talk circles, blogs, etc that ever mentioned PC cont...

Ryan Rowdy

Great interview! Del seems as loyal as they get.

Anyone else think to themselves that PC might have been one of those teams that contacted him about his Senior year?

Ryan Rowdy

What went through his mind when he recorded to first triple-double in school history in the CBI against Miami of OH?

Ryan Rowdy

The announcers mentioned Aaman was still coming back from that ankle injury so I'm pretty sure thats what it was. Ankle injury, plus, it didn't really seem like a great game to use Aaman in. Of the big men on URI's roster, Hare is the best to use in an uptempo game, even taking into account some of...

Ryan Rowdy

^ My thoughts exactly.

Ryan Rowdy

I caught it...a GREAT watch! At the end of the segment they brought out a white board and broke down the go-to- offensive set. As a coach, being able to get that little tidbit of information, coming right from Hurley himself, was fantastic!

A must watch for every Rhody fan.

Ryan Rowdy

Did anyone else notice Marquis Jones & Anthony Malhoit in attendance?

Ryan Rowdy

Great second half from Xavier.

Ryan Rowdy

Daryl Jasper is a top of the line guy. An all around great person.

Ryan Rowdy

For what it's worth, I do feel that this is his best season he's had in a Rhody jersey.

It's not saying much, but I do like him better in the Hurley system.

Ryan Rowdy

Free admission to the game tonight as well as a coupon for a free burger at burger shack.

Anyone going?

Personally, I will just to see Elena Delle Donne for Delaware. She's one of the elite players in women's basketball today.

Ryan Rowdy

A damn shame.

Such a great basketball mind.

RIP.

Ryan Rowdy

Agreed, I hope this becomes a regular thing.

The best part of that clip was Danny jumping right into the middle of the team backstage. Awesome.

We're on the right track.

Ryan Rowdy

Like I told my dad, you know Hurley has this team behind when he can make Brooks like a good ball player. Now, we've seen him for four years, so I don't mean "wow, he's really good!" but more of a "wow, he actually DOES know what basketball is! Good!" I like his hustle on the gla...

Ryan Rowdy

I was impressed with how well he was moving without the ball last night. Some nice back door cuts. One of those missed layups looked like it came from a bad pass from Brooks (from where I was sitting), seemed like he passed it towards his feet.

Ryan Rowdy

Did anyone else notice Brooks nursing his elbow late in the 2nd half last night? It was after a missed FT, he went for a rebound, and kept it bent for a few possessions.

Probably just a little tweak, but still grabbed my attention.

Ryan Rowdy

A great showing from X, as expected.

I really want to know what Hurley said to them at the half. He must've lit them up.

Oh, breaking news, the refs were pretty damn bad.

Ryan Rowdy

I see us riding the wave from the Auburn game and will likely get the ball to Xavier early and often.

Ryan Rowdy

I would be curious as to how he felt when he received news going into his Senior year about being a nominee for the Naismith Award.

Ryan Rowdy

Exactly! It will take a lot this year for me to walk away upset after a loss. Our prospects are great, and everyone knew this was going to be a tough go.

It's a brand new day, even if there are some clouds at first.

Ryan Rowdy

If Gaspar, Shoniker, Sessions and Boone all entered Rhody in the same year, they woyld be a hell of a team.

Sadly, that's not the case.

Ryan Rowdy

Powell was frustrating to watch. Dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble, force a pass, make a lazy cut.

I came into this season keeping high hopes for him, but after the practice and game 1, I don't see how he sticks around once EC and Biggie are playing.

Ryan Rowdy

Also, the football locker room isn't anything too special. They made it look real nice, however, when they converted it to the media room for the NCAA when the women's tourney was in town.

Ryan Rowdy

I've been told that the new locker room is outstanding.

Ryan Rowdy

One thing I noticed down the stretch was that the team fed off of Nik. If Nik was amped up, everyone else was. When he began to focus more on talking trash and forced shots, then the rest did.

Hopefully he leads by example.

Ryan Rowdy

Damn free throws!

Other then that, I liked what I saw even in loss. A lot of scrappy defense, some good looks as well.

WHO TOLD RYAN BROOKS HE CAN PLAY DEFENSE!? Impressive.

Ryan Rowdy

According to Thorr's twitter, Penders will be in attendance (probably why he is on the tickets.)

Ryan Rowdy

C- for depth? Rather modest.

What we lack in depth, our guys make up for in hustle, grit and the 'Hurley Factor.' I feel good about this one.

Ryan Rowdy

You guys also have to remember, Southern RI was hit very hard by Sandy and many are still without power.

I'm sure that played a role in getting to the game.

Ryan Rowdy

Agreed. He has the skills, just needs the fine tuning. I noticed the little things like his footwork was a little off, drop step, a little timid, etc.

He can benefit greatly from this year off.

Ryan Rowdy

I assumed that he was still in HS in Virginia at the start of this year, then due to some sort of loop hole he became eligible (ala Billy Walker at K-State a few years back)?

A confusing situation indeed.

Ryan Rowdy

Consider the footage "vanished."

Ryan Rowdy

Very true.

Plus, this close to the season 99% of us will get to see the (closed to finish) product in action soon enough!!

Ryan Rowdy

Also, I recorded most of the 4th qtr then my battery ran out...after which I noticed the big "NO VIDEOTAPING OR PHOTOGRAPHY DURING THE SCRIMMAGE" sign lol.

If anyone wants to see it I'm sure I could upload it.

Ryan Rowdy

I noticed that Bobby made it a point to really push Biggie during the drills prior to the scrimmage. I was closer towards the left end (white team,) and Bobby would get vocal with guys, but he seemed to only get really ticked with Biggie messed up. It's a good sign, given that and their twitter back...

Ryan Rowdy

My observations: -I feel that Biggie was playing Powell. He asserted his dominance on him the entire first half, and seemed to let up a bit in the 2nd. He (Biggie) also does a fantastic job closing out on shots. -I raved about how much of a freak athlete Gil is after Madness but after today I'm thro...

Ryan Rowdy

I interned with the marketing department two years ago, and a little last year. Nothing but pure class all around and truly some of the hardest workers I've meet. Darryl Jasper & Adam Schemm are two stand up guys and they always bring in top-notch support with their marketing assistants and inte...

Ryan Rowdy

The cheese factor is a little too much to take, but entertaining none the less!

"This is going to be a great year."

Ryan Rowdy

Could you ask him how he ever came up with his trick shot where he shoots from the seats just below the suites, over the vent system, and into the hoop?
