Same issue as early last year for him...can't make layup...but nobody can this game.

Thanks for the info on how to mirror the phone on the Fire Stick...of course i have an iPhone and a mac! I found some youtube videos that show how to do it with those.

RIFan

Until or unless this team becomes a perennial/count on Top 20 team, aren't these things going to prevent it from filling the house midweek against nobody? -out in the middle of the woods -1/2 hr from closest city (which already has a successful BE team) -only one lane roads to get it I LOVE those t...

Thanks, I didn't know that.

How did you watch this on a fire stick or chrome cast since it was on Facebook? I have a fire stick but I watched this on Facebook on my computer. Thanks

EC says healing fast and will start shooting tomorrow, expects to be back around the 16th

FT's and rebounding...I think we may complain quite a bit about them this season. The thing about the rebounding is our 2 tallest players are glued to the bench...Cue the "give them time to develop" BS...what was the last 15 months? I understand development, but more than a year and they s...

Yes!!!

Love the good news!

Brutal...get well soon EC! With his loss this makes the 4 guard lineup more difficult to utilize for long stretches, which will force us to play more of a traditional lineup...if they can stay on the floor... After a small 2 game sample, I would not categorize any of our bigs as A10 starting qualit...

.....enough to make significant impact filling the void left in the front court, not so much from prior stats but a body, physical presence, sticks his nose in their, attitude, role player, etc that fits the DH style of play...... We don't need gaudy stats from him...we need rebounding, defending t...

Preston had modest Juco Stats...realistically, how much are you really expecting him to improve and be a factor at this level?

RIFan

Too much ISO
Too many fouls
Too many missed FT's

Weak finish to the half

Too much standing around on offense while the guy out top is getting mugged

Looks bad on TV with all those empty seats.

They seem to want it more and are being the aggressors.

RIFan

The offense has no flow...they also seem to be out hustling us.

Happy birthday Rod!
FWIW, on Nevada's Twitter they were thanking all the NBA scouts that were at their first game.

RIFan

Thanks as always!

If Stan was or is about to be charged, I wish it had happened a while ago so the process would be completed or near completion, like it was for Boswell. No need for this to drag on so long.

RIFan

Woo-hoo...

RIFan

different day...same results...

My niece is dating a player from another CAA school who graduated recently and he basically told me your coach sucks and your players play softer than their size.

RIFan

I can't believe I listened to this...I must be insane since I keep listening hoping for a different outcome...why do we put up with this?

What a way to chase away the sunday night blues! Welcome to Rhody Brendan!

Go Rhody and go Hurley and Cox!

Yes! U-R-I!

I'm stoked we get a visit and i'll be really stoked with a commitment! Let's get it done!

Good game, either we will be pretty good this season or CMU will suck...or maybe both...time will tell

This link has two recent big men's rankings...that year we signed 2 of the top 25 ranked high school centers in the nation according to ESPN.

meh, we practice on our home court. Why would we need a practice facility when we have the Ryan Center, with the new locker rooms and everything else? I know, I can see the value for a team that plays in an off campus arena or who has to share theirs with many other teams or events...but we don't r...

This is the type of player that makes a statement on the recruiting trail. Tate was a great get, and now I want to win a recruiting battle with some of the big boys.

I think Hass may be worthy of the URI Athletic HOF.

I saw it too near the beginning of the video.

I took this as their starting point or initial condition for next season...every team has to have a starting value that will then evolve as data is added. Though I don't know what they used to arrive at these numbers. You know what they say...there are lies, damned lies and statistics.

RIFan

I hate Stanford

RIFan

The designation of Mid-Major would be more accurate and meaningful if they (not this site) actually didn't lump pretty much every conference/team that is not BCS or New BE in it. To me, if they insist on this terminology, the non BCS/New BE conferences and teams that are in the Top 10-12 conferences...

RIFan

Fair enough. I really hope your take is the right one. I don't want to be right on this.

RIFan

It's circumstantial evidence...red shirted, and the player who wasn't red shirted,didn't play practically at all and when he did, he didn't impress. And every report has stated he's a rebounder and defender...which is what they stated they needed in a front court recruit this year...which leads us t...

Pretty surprised we couldn't sign a real stud and shocked we appear to have not been active on Poyser Time will tell re Preston What stud? That's the question TP...why were we left searching for transfers and Juco's when we only had two scholarships to fill? Besides Russell who else were we on sinc...

RIFan

We only had 2 openings to fill this year, so you would think that they could have really focused and committed to recruiting 2 high level 3+ star guys...like Russell. Next year they are really going to have to spread themselves out with so many to fill. Are you telling me they didn't have a player o...

I understand that there are different levels of Juco and the stats can be misleading, but I doubt even the best juco league's talent compares with a top 10 D1 conference. I also am assuming his averages of 8.5 and 6.4 in Juco will not translate to the same or better in the A10. I hope he turns out ...

RIFan

Great, after all this, the best we could do is a 2 year guy who needs development! We need people, especially if they are only here for 2 years who can make an impact right away! Why he was the best they could do is the BIG question (pun intended). That is what concerns me... I'll take all those peo...

They have known for 2 years that their starting front court was graduating this season, and early on in practice they knew what they had in last years big men recruits...and then we had the type of season Hurley had been promising for 4 years...and the best they could do was a guy who would be a goo...

Wow, after reading all the posts talking themselves into liking this signing, I'm excited now! When was the last time you saw so few posts about a signing? I guess I'm not the only one underwelemed.
