I will be in Brooklyn again this year. How do we get McMahons for a Rhody pre-game event on Friday? Don’t want to jinx anything but we certainly have a leg up right now through record and tie breakers. We took over the place last year after the VCU win last year as it is two blocks from Barclays.

Re: 11/24|Stony Brook|2PM

I recently posted that Fatts isn’t emotionally ready to lead. I am more convinced after this game. If anything he needs to be reigned in. He was beaten on defense a number of times due to his offensive struggles and then showed a lack of hustle getting back. Fatts is the main reason for the offensiv...

Re: 11/13 | at Charleston | 7PM

Its almost unfair to Fatts that he is put in a position to lead. I feel he is not emotionally ready to handle that as he tends to rush things. In a perfect world, he'd still have Jared to teach him how to lead on the job.

However, I don’t believe it can happen with Dan’s current loyalty to EC and Berry. Both are defensive liabilities and unless EC is driving to his left, he has b...

Re: Donaldson slamming Rhody fan base on Twitter

I am not a Donaldson fan by any means, but the crowd vs. UMass was weak. We can try to make all the excuses we want (mid-week, poor weather, no students, blah blah blah). Bottom line is it is disconcerting that we have a fringe top 25 team and we can’t get 6k vs UMass.

Re: Who has been the most pleasant surprise of the season so far?

Andre has been a nice surprise. He has a soft touch and has been a big part of us winning games. However, outside of JT, Stan is the Man. That guy does everything. He’s 6’4 and guards guys 4” taller all the time. He may be our best defender, is our best rebounder and has turned himself into a pretty...

Was on campus for a tour today. Our tour guide told us that basketball is our biggest sport. Then proceeded to say she couldn't wait for the season to start next Friday night (she did mean Nov.20). In addition, I didn't see one sign or promotion for tomorrow's game. I hope the students are tuned in.
