Neil, I also saw a tweet from Bill Koch that we are playing UNH.

RoadyJay

When was the UNH game announced? Didn't see that. Why no date for that one yet?

RoadyJay

I'm definitely going to plan on making the trip down to LSU. Who is with me?

RoadyJay

Embarrassing the University through obnoxious behavior hurts the program. Be engaged, be involved, be loud and be supportive. Do you really believe that future prospects will be anxious to play for a University known for its obnoxious fans? Do you really believe that personal attacks towards refere...

Sophia will be a Junior *sigh*

Just checked GoRhody.com and mini plans were announced on Sept 8 last year.

RoadyJay

I'd imagine within the next few weeks. My assumption would be finalizing the schedule will be a priority upon returning from Italy.

RoadyJay

I believe that they won't open up season tickets to the general public until August 19th. I'm sure new season ticket holder sales will be brisk so we won't have numbers for a while yet

RoadyJay

Yes! I just wish the games would start already. 1 last Italy game today and then what will we do for the next 2.5 months?

Got it marked!! Less than 3 months now..

Which game is on 11/8?

Exhibition against Southern Conn State Nov 1 @ 7pm

RoadyJay

The fact that I spent a grand on season tickets in each of the last 2 years should preclude me from having to be fearful of losing my seats. There should be more loyalty toward ticket holders who have been there during awful periods in the program. I completely disagree. If we operate this way we w...

RoadyJay

"Hey ref, is the light shining off your bald spot and into your eyes?"

RoadyJay

I wanted to give everyone an opportunity to expand on how we plan to be louder and more obnoxious than ever before at The Ryan Center. As Blue Man said we need to "take back the Ryan Center." The last couple of years the environment has been pretty lame. Winning will help of course but we ...

RoadyJay

Yes. After all the drama everyone is happy!

RoadyJay

Rod!!! I agree with you for once!! Yes!!! Made my day.

RoadyJay

I'm with you Blue Man. It's not going to be the same Ryan Center this season and seasons to come.

Get off your hands out of your seats and make the Ryan Center an intimidating place to play!!

RoadyJay

Blue Man...

Are you apologizing because you will be loud? I had a couple behind me in 205 last year tell me to sit down because I stood and cheered for 2 seconds after a Hare dunk. I had to move out of those seats. I don't go to games to sit and be quiet.

And why do you say you're welcome? LoL

RoadyJay

Good stuff, Jim!

RoadyJay

It's awesome to see this level of excitement in the program after an 8-21 season. I will be interested in seeing the numbers increase in season tickets this year compared to last.

RoadyJay

It's a great day to be a Rhody Ram fan. Go Rhody!!

RoadyJay

The Final 4 and Championship games at MSG are on the 27th and 29th of November respectively. History would dictate that the opening round games would be ~10-12 days earlier. Should start mid-November

RoadyJay

I once liked the Ram head logo on the floor at the Ryan Center. In fact, I thought we had one of the best looking floors back in 2002. However, if our collective goal is to bring our favorite hoop program to new heights and sustain it in this highly competitive environment, we need to maximize our ...

RoadyJay

Hey, I didn't say they were trying to fool anyone, DID I? The criteria is bullshit. Why is the criteria BS? If I give my tickets to a few kids from a Youth Basketball team I shouldn't qualify? The point is to encourage season ticket holders to keep their seats occupied even if they can't attend per...

RoadyJay

I talked to someone at URI about that. I know several on that list, who likely never went to a single game, because they live in Florida during the winter. The criteria is, if the ticket is scanned for every game, it counts toward the seatholder. Which means, some of these people are giving their t...

RoadyJay

Why couldn't a donation level per seat just be tacked on to current tickets? http://www.friars.com/tickets/prov-seatingcharts.html Not that the Friars do everything right, but that system seems to make much more sense then simply up and moving people from their current location. Plus, most people d...

RoadyJay

You're right TP... On all points. Go Rhody!

RoadyJay

Ok Rod. Interpret what you wish. And anyway, we all know you have never mocked anyone on this message board.

In the future, I'll try to refrain from stating the facts

RoadyJay

Selective comprehension I'd say... Or just blatant distortion of what I posted. For instance, you ignored this line from my post... "I'm sure the University greatly appreciates season ticket holders even if they can't donate." That goes for me as well. The point is if you think that buying...

RoadyJay

Ok.. I've got the solution! Let's get all the season ticket holders together and have everyone bring proof of how many newspaper articles they've read about the URI basketball team, how vocal they are at games and how many nachos and souvenirs they've bought. You'll get priority points for each! We ...

RoadyJay

I'm surprised at the posts on this topic. Why are some so offended? This is a common practice nationally which rewards loyalty and benefits the program. The reseating is a way to ensure that fans sit in seats consistent with their level of support. That seems fair to me. I'm sure a significant amoun...

I've seen him workout at Bombsquad. He's got a great swing! Wish him the best of luck.

Great event tonight. Dan introduced entire staff. Everyone was there including Luke Murray and Steven Enright. Highlights from Dan... Says last year's key word was "Relentless." This year's key word will be "Fearless." Will play an aggressive, attacking style. Says we don't run f...

RoadyJay

I'm going!

Even WEEI reported it on their SportsFlash. A URI fan who doesn't know EC signed his LOI in November? Wow! I'm not sure how much recruiting Bobby did, anyway. Whenever there was a player to be seen, it was Dan and/or Preston at the scene. Great. Then we all agree. Bobby did nothing and had no impac...

RoadyJay

Yes, he signed an LOI. And if you don understand why Bobby left you probably don't work for a living. Of course I understand why Bobby left and don't begrudge him. I'm looking at this from the perspective of how does this impact the program. I think his greatest asset to URI was recruiting and play...

RoadyJay

Some of you guys are strange. EC wouldn't change where he was going to school because an assistant left the program even if he could, but he can't anyway because he signed an LOI. Do you guys spend your free time driving around looking for bridges to jump off of? I see it now... He did sign.. thoug...

RoadyJay

This makes sense...

RoadyJay

The blow to the program is with recruiting. One has to think that EC will at least reconsider his commitment. Wasn't Preston very involved with EC's recruitment? Weren't Danny and Preston both guards in college? Sure Preston was involved and both Preston and Danny were also guards in college. But w...
