Nice game to watch.....looked like plenty of room.... There was....not to nitpick (well, yeah, I will), but...there is a limited area where fans can stand to see the court. So, where do they put the TV's?...right in the same area. Put the TV's on the sides, high enough for everyone to see them and ...

Our fans don't suck for not going to the games. Our fans have been emotionally abused by this program for a decade and a half, and if they even hint at being good again they will STILL come back. But this team is a huge disappointment so far this year. Can't blame the fans. Win and they will show u...

Same old Rhody. This team could be so much better if they figured out how to gel better on the court. Saw a few times in this game where Jarvis split the zone and drove down the lane. It drew the center out from the basket and he dished the ball off to a teammate like Iverson or Hassan who cut back...

Well, I just got back from the game. I think that the Frenchtown Rd. Showcase's running of fucking Star Wars drew more "fans" during the day's showings than showed up for tonight's game. Though this board comprises a bunch of devoted amateurs, what cracks me up is that a tremendous number...

Well...they did it...TV's in the giant cubicle. Huzzah!

NYGFan_Section208

Exactly...win #1 of the streak! Woo-hoo!

NYGFan_Section208

win enough of the right games...and they will come...won't matter if school is out or not.

NYGFan_Section208

fukin free throws. yeah. they don't mean shit. right? Rhody made 8 of 10 FTs down the stretch in regulation and 7 of 8 FTs in OT. The two FTs at the end of regulation were missed by a Freshmen. You can't just look at one play. The game went into OT because of poor FG shooting for the game and poor ...

Snap out of it, TP...this is the start of the big win streak...prime seats still available on the bandwagon. Hopefully, they can get the efficiencies worked out in the pubicle in time to reasonably accommodate.

I second that emotion...but would add this final novel thought... "Hey, what if they practiced them more?"

I think people just want to make sure that it's out there that FT's are an issue (not quite sure if all fans realize yet that this is an issue). Seems like it's finally getting recognized. Next step is to make sure that everyone knows how to correct it. Looks like there's a lot of debate about what ...

I can't afford season tickets. I'm sorry. I go to as many as the budget allows. That's totally fair and understandable, nothing wrong with that at all. But then maybe it's not fair to constantly question why others aren't there more often? Just as you have your reasons, maybe others do to? My reaso...

Can your advanced metrics explain why a poorly designed offensive strategy (your opinion) has an average at best perimeter shooting team connecting on 45% from the field and getting to the line more often than their opponents?

It should be an interesting crowd for Iona with the students gone for Christmas break. I'm sure there will be pages of posts dedicated to it in between the 10-15 posts about the actual game.

Jared Terrell C Thompson Kuran Iverson Hassan Martin McGlynn - to 'try' short term...maybe he lucks into a favorable matchup Watson and Garret first subs for McGlynn and anyone else that needs to come out.

Don't forget to get your ticket, hold it for 5 seconds, then give it back to the person right next to the person who originally gave it to you ..

I think the team is still taking shape following the massive disruption to flow and game-planning caused by 'the moment that shall not be spoken of'. Seems they are getting better.

I think it will get better. Good 35 minute road effort, but time to replace Four with CT...

TP, agree with your comment earlier: "To this point, nobody has answered that call. So, we are what we are" I think this is the key. Mathews is gone of course. But many here thought and stated that this year's team would be better than last year's team anyway, even without EC. The remaini...

Love Hurley but eventually he's got to take some heat for x's and o's . I think it's time for Four to play a little less fg 3-23 last 3 games and 3pts 3-18.
