I thought Larry Brown actually enjoyed watching these kids(ours) play, and during end of game congrats, had nice words and some quick hugs for some of our major contributors............nice to see and hear his thoughts on the program being in good hands.........we really, really, are!!

section(105)

Great win, balanced scoring, free throws made, rebounds aplenty, tuff defense on their main players(took 'em outta what they like to do)points off TO/s, assists abound, coaching is a huge factor for this team in that they suffer no let down, none of that "didn't come ready to play" crap we...

section(105)

'bout time for this student outreach..........nice

section(105)

Are we gonna suffer from a slow out of the gate start, due to the fog of exams??........bust out game for someone(Malone/Nik)that leads us to a win...........I expect the Hurley coached teams do not suffer from the slow start problem of post exams and no games in a while........I/ll take us in a PK'...

section(105)

let/s welcome Larry Brown to the RC and kick some mustang ass, no??.......movin on...............

section(105)

The more things change the more they remain the same. The league and its members will continue to be the best they can be, recruit the desired student athletes, develop and build a hoops program that competes for league championships, play a national competative schedule, fill more of the seats in t...

section(105)

Question, who exactly would be the "decider(s)" for URI to accept an invite to any newly formed league? And regarding TP's last paragrpah, I hope our athletic dept admin/leaders have the right stuff to be a doer and not viewer. I wonder if those folks have any significant role and/or influ...

section(105)

so then we/ll end up in a A-10ish kinda conference, with the trickle down effect being that the A-10 loss of teams to the new BE/C7 will result an effort to replace them with............

section(105)

Why would the assumed C7 want URI? What exactly are the things URI would bring to their table?

section(105)

Think Big We do.............In this case I, unfortunately, do not think the current existing URI administration with needed support of the purse strings to the disfunctional legislature is capable of being pro-active and position URI hoops in the national picture that we all want. No??

section(105)

I had offered on here, that the remaining BE hoops focused group could raid the the current A-10 and pluck the more attractive teams into a conference, and that conferecne make-up could not include URI hoops. If that comes to be, disapointed yes. Reality yes.

section(105)

we/ll see where this all shakes out. I, as I/ve stated on here before, the changing game board of these .edu/s will have already evaluated the options to be re-active/ pro-active in this conference dance in terms thier educational goals, missions, budget/funding bases etc. and other factors that fit...

section(105)

Giving Jordan and Mike more pt to aid in their development in that kinda atmosphere, plus giving us better opportunity to win?

section(105)

not the end of the world??..............no, but we did get view of the end of the world last year...........

section(105)

hopefully we/ll continue to play every year, rotating between the venues as it should be......Santa Cooley doesn't own this series.........

section(105)

Just back to narragansett, of all the great things about going into the big city, coming home with rt 95 south, two right lanes closed after the Thurbers Ave curve..............nice. Way too much high post play we couldn't defend(besides boards) PC scored easy 10-15 ft in the lane jumpers, way too m...

section(105)

What I am looking for tonite; 1) the defense to step it up a notch, away from the ball, with more pressure on the ball 2) the defense keeping us within striking distance, and we/ll be able to take a punch or two and we/ll hang around long enough to take the game into the last few possessions 3) free...

What can the students bring to the table to welcome Larry Brown to the house??..........

section(105)

Bring back the Kingston Pizza man??

section(105)

If that disconnect exists between the team and the rest of the campus, and probably the campus life, then changing that culture is also needed, and the Athletic Dept must come up with a strategy to address that; if there gonna get serious about creating a real home court advantage. How do other hoop...

section(105)

Iggy's and Giro's??

section(105)

Question, what, if anything, is done on campus to promote the games. Campus radio, Cigar features??

section(105)

I wanna see the contiuned growth of the way Coach Hurley plays against the alleged tougher opponent. I wanna see the team exhibit the same defensive mindset to not back down in the face of the usual ugly Dunk crowd for these games. I wanna see a statement game, that going forward with the Hurley For...

section(105)

They did everything right down the stretch, when it got under 10 points, we seemed to get the possession/rebound we needed and hit some of the free throws. Before game, it was mentioned by an assistant coach; to look for URI to force the action and tempo.....they did, and as usual they do it from th...

section(105)

Moving on. What's the scouting report on these guys?

section(105)

OK, here goes, Would I pissed if in the re-seating of the RC, I lost and simply could not get two season tickets in 105?? YES. Would I recover knowing these sections were going (except 106)to students AND these sections would be full and creating a meaningful home court advantage going forward?? YES...

1) we do and see around me show ups rather than empty...........
2) we do and others around me do...........

The state folks can't handle the Christmas tree thing and we expect..............??

section(105)

A representative, and a few MOB members were invited to the Alumni Lounge gathering and spoke saying they have a bit over 200 "signed-up" members and on any given game there are +/= 150. So, it appears they are organized to some degree. A some times visitor in the seat next to me asked me;...

section(105)

Not much to add, these guys work there ass off on each defensive possession. The effort they put forth as a Hurley team is quite impressive, and closing out the game still haunts these guys. Hare is coming along, as Bob Hurley said in the post game, he erases some of the defensive breakdowns, more p...

section(105)

"Cause we/re fans, and see our program as one that a league would want. Our TV market is??......I would imagine that with the recent uncertainty of our recent past football decisions, others may look upon URI as a less than desirable commodity. Also. I would like to think there's some comprehen...

section(105)

Dream on.....but then again, maybe the winds of change keep blowing around with the Big East defections etc,...... but the going forward for the A-10 has got to be a focus on building a strong basketball conference with major TV markets. The bigger issue for the A-10 might be how to try to keep some...

Battle of the boards....thought it was time to dig into Team Rankings Stats. For what its worth Offensive Rebounds/Game Defensive Rebounds/Game rank # rank # 103 11.5 URI 195 21.7 URI 301 7.5 GM 229 21,0 GM

section(105)

Out quick'em........would love to see that. Which brings me to a question. Assume we get some defensive boards, do we have the court speed to push the ball for fast break score and does Coach Hurley want that and only when we/ve got the numbers advantage? Fast break points do not seem to be part of ...

section(105)

Glad we cleared up the who's who regarding the PA announcer and on-the-floor guy. I used to directly appeal to him to give "stuff"(pizza) to the section 105 folks, whom get lost behind radio, score board ops, stat people, timers, video ops etc. etc. Once he delivered!! i think he does an O...

would like to see Chris get more time on our radio broadcasts, I guess Don is a fixture, but when there's time to look to others, I hope Chris gets consideration...........

section(105)

With the current team that has major offensive challenges, and relies on its defense to compete and fight for wins, we/ll probably experience posters continuing(as it should be)to offer their view of plays and players in equal distribution of critical observations.

section(105)

Even with the one win(for now)I still think someone in the bottom 1/4 group is going to win; hope I am wrong, but thus far from what I/ve seen and digested not many wins out there...............

section(105)

Maybe a RI version of the Governor's Cup is worth a look, Brown, URI, PC, Bryant going at it in some format??

section(105)

He needs a Hank Slider(showing my age)type free throw doctor to come work with him............he/s going to get to the line alot.
