I travel enough to report that many colleges and universities have billboards and ads in their local and regional airports. As someone earlier mentioned, it's part of a branding effort, building awareness and keeping the product top of mind. Marketing encompasses creative and directional media; dire...

I'd be willing to bet most of us had the team at 3-2 at this point. Split PC and Alabama (oh, hell - beat PC!) and finish OOC 8-3. There WILL be an unexpected loss or 2 in the A-10. Sh'appens. Breathe, and realize that this is an NCAA caliber team. At that point it's all about the draw and match ups.

Perhaps we need to look no further than the original tweet? A home and home with Gonzaga?

FWIW, though listed as #32, they're dropped into the projected brackets as a 7 seed, Agree on the lack of respect for the best team in the A10, but do the work between the lines and it will all fall into place.

Thoughts from the North Country. It takes two to tango. We are a quality team that no one good wants to play. WE don't want to play anyone crappy. Mike has shared that they've essentially reached out to all of the top 150 at one time or another. The lack of the fourth NIT game hurts, but I respect t...

Apologies if this was posted elsewhere here, but I just saw that Valparaiso has gained admittance to the Missouri Valley Conference. I know their name was occasionally mentioned as a possible A-10 candidate; that would appear to be off the table....

Like any true Rhody fan, it'll take more than a hospital stay to keep you down! There's more to life than hoops, to be sure, but Rhody hoops is the bond that makes this a family. Be well, Rod!

Flashback to 2003. Returning home from men's final four in Indy. Our flight to Manchester, NH flew through Philadelphia; we were the last plane to land before the airport shut down due to a snowstorm (and it was a crazy landing, with the wings nearly touching the runway from wind shear at the last s...

The link worked fine, but the audio was horrible. Background noise was too strong to hear them speaking. Caught bits and pieces.

Perhaps because the is the Rhode Island board; not the PC board. Perhaps because there are topics of more concern and import to the Rhody faithful. Perhaps because there are many amongst us who don't give a flying fuck about anything PeeCee. Just what is the purpose of your post? Just another trolli...

Many non BCS schools have made the difficult decision to cut a major sport over the years, and focus resources on their more successful programs. Vermont dropped football; BU dropped football; PC dropped baseball; UNH dropped baseball; etc. etc. It's time. URI football is circled as a sure win by CA...

Folks....Gabriel is NOT headed to Smith Hill.

The hand wringing on Smith Hill will intensify....get out the Rosary beads. Perhaps Pope Francis can arrange a little detour while he's in the states to calm everyone down.....

Let it be noted that the p!ss!ng contest commenced on September 17....11 weeks of pre-game banter!! Burr, meet Saddle!

The PC/URI rivalry probably means more to us older fans, who remember playing twice a year; but it's still THE game for RI bragging rights each year. (until/unless a miracle happens in Smithfield and at Brown).

Double whammy tonight; came home from a practice to see another loss to PC, followed by Nebraska losing to Incarnate Word. INCARNATE WORD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Easy! Robert Parish!

Given the comment regarding EC's increased time at the 1, I wouldn't be surprised to see TJ starting at the beginning of the season, given his role on the team (leadership/toughness/defense/maturity) with EC handling the ball much of the time. As the season progresses he moves into the sixth man rol...

Not to mention the tons of stories of athletes who ignored the long term potential problems of multiple concussions and continued to play their sport. Headaches; sensitivity to light; inability to concentrate or read; etc. In essence, they become a burden to the health care system/society due to the...

More likely a case of KMac either not doing his HW or just stirring up some sh!t.....

I'm sure they're waiting until Providence has something positive happen. Then KMac will write a "hoops roundup" article where the Butts verbal will be mentioned deep in the article as an afterthought. In other words, we may not see it in print for quite awhile!!!

NHRamFan

They need to add Davidson to the school/logo strip as well as the drop down box!!!

Having relocated to South County with his Mom, I'm sure he's seen a lot of what the area has to offer. It's good that he gets the chance to see the wonderfulness that is "Friar Nation!" (Tongue is firmly in cheek for those that thing I'm speaking positively about the team to the north.)

Mods: Can we "deport" Sean now, please?

Think BIG! Of course our home fans would/should know who is who on the team. However, if we are thinking big(i.e. outside our own little universe), the desire is to have as many games televised nationally as possible. Exposure to basketball fans nationwide, not just our own rabid and casual fans, wi...

Typically I would agree that Sean pokes the bear, but his last several posts in this thread have been objective. Take a look back - it's his SOP. Make a few "reasonable" posts to appease the Rodney Kings amongst us and build up some goodwill; then act as the official PC hall monitor until...

I can't help but draw an analogy to international politics: the United States (Keaney Blue) allows free speech, regardless of how irritating or offensive it may be. However, try as an American to travel to someplace else, say Russia (PC's Scout board), and the least little infraction gets you banned...
