Re: URI Rhode to Excellence Poll
RIFan, over the years, I have often wondered why the university can’t build more pride. I always thought that native Rhode Islanders tended to be negative toward the state and that that attitude spilled over to the University by extension. However, I am sure it is a combination of many things. I've...

Re: URI Rhode to Excellence Poll
I read once that UMass has the same issue. They claim a major reason is that most kids go because it’s a good deal, not that they really wanted to go. Most wanted to go to BC or BU or Northeastern, Villanova etc only to see the price tag…I live in MA and couldn’t get my kids to even visit UMass, ne...

There are several programs in higher conferences true, but none of them traditional needle movers in my opinion.rambone 78 wrote: ↑7 hours ago There are several higher level programs on that list.

Re: URI Rhode to Excellence Poll
Football, football, football. I am really, really - started a few yrs ago - to dislike major college football, it’s major conferences, major schools and what it all represents. The north (Big 10) and the south (SEC) playing out the Civil War on the football field like it’s some sacred religion. I a...

I'll be pissed if he ends up at Pvd, or an A10 school. Anywhere else and I'll completely forget about him unless someone else posts about him on this board.

Re: '22 PG Jamarques Lawrence (Nebraksa —> URI)
The A10 has always been a guard heavy league. I like Luis and him and Lawrence playing together will be great I think. I think Luis is more of a 2 or combo and not a true point guard. Of course, I'm a keyboard warrior, so what do it know.

Any hard blow to the BE will have a downstream affect of a hard blow to the A10 - it has happened nearly every single time. That may not so much be the case.

In think (in years) the past, the semis were thrus and the championship on Sat, but that was like 40 years ago. I do agree that the time is way too late.
Do they still alternate the FF/Champ between CBS and TBS? Or is it all just TBS/TNT/Tru now for the final weekend?

Re: 2024 Coaching Carousel
There have been rumors about Brad Stevens for years - it's always been squashed because the thought is he has no interest in the recruiting etc of the college game. Not sure how true that is, but I would think he'd be back to the college game already if he was going to.
