Re: The Problem Is URI. Not Who's In The Coaching Chair.
Couldn't agree more with your entire assessment. It is a failure from the top down and has been for decades. I would actually say that it is not only the URI administrations thinking small, but the entire state system needs to be reconfigured for the benefit of URI as a whole. I am not from Rhode I...

Re: The Problem Is URI. Not Who's In The Coaching Chair.
The Foundation has been known for having an extremely parochial mindset when it comes to where money is spent. That’s why it’s such a revolving door there with employees. Work 80hrs a week for peanuts!

Re: FIRE COX
Hear me out, but what if we brought in Jimmy Baron (2005-2009) to lead this program? It would obviously be a major challenge but who’s to say he couldn’t form an experienced staff of former HCs to help with running the program? Maybe bring in Rob McClanaghan for Player Development?

Re: FIRE COX
I have a few other thoughts right now as I’m looking at Twitter after the Friars beat Cincy tonight. If Rhody pulls out a win, there’s zero energy. No post game hype from the locker room. Monotone post game interviews talking about process. Getting back to the lab. Adjustments. Fatigue. Do we even h...

Re: 1/25 | Richmond | 6:30PM (CBSSN)
Thomas played 38 minutes because he's the only point guard on the team. He came out in the 1st half for about 30 seconds, then fouled out late in the 2nd half. Otherwise, his minutes would have been around 39:30. So when Cox says “fatigue”, Sebastian is the only one who’d really qualify as “fatigue”

Re: 1/25 | Richmond | 6:30PM (CBSSN)
My take was signing DC as HC would have kept that recruiting class and then BUILD on said recruiting class the subsequent seasons. We did not see that. Anyone not on a contract would have lost their job already with this dismal product.

Cox blamed the loss on fatigue. Someone asked why Carey didn't play in the first half and asked if it was disciplinary. Cox said no, coach's decision.
