If the RC is such a nice, first class facility and it's only about 10 years old, why weren't the locker rooms, coaches offices, etc made to be first class also when they were originally built?

When do the students get back? I know they won't be back for Charlotte, but hopefully by the GW game on the 23rd, they will.

I'm betting GansettRam74's friend(and his son) is a PC fan.

Looks like he might already be blowing up. He recently scored his 1000th point...still a junior.

That was fun. One thing we learned that wasn't clear is that Bigby does have only one year of eligibility, meaning that we still have 2 scholarships available for next season.

Don Kaull just said that Munford got hurt in practice this week...fell and landed on his tailbone.

So.......who deleted their account.....EC Williams or EC Matthews?

Wow, Billyboy, I couldn't have said it any better. These kids will have the most developed thumbs in mankind's history, and that will be about it. Cyber bullying, violent video games, spending hours in isolation on a computer, texting instead of talking, writing in cyber shorthand, blurring reality...

The younger generation, meaning college aged kids, has grown up so much differently than I did. We were always out playing basketball or baseball. Most kids today have phones by the age of 12 or 13 (many even younger). Almost everything they need is on their phone, including many forms of entertainm...

The youngest brother is now in 8th grade and is already 6'6". I wonder if we're on him?

Billyboy78

So....are we still involved with him or not?

Billyboy78

Well, Notice is blowing up. Severe is being recruited by BCS schools, as is the OSU recommit. Williams is big, and can score. Could be the man for the job. Maybe Hurley grabs Williams and set his sights on a 14 SG. That's what I was thinking too. Williams comes in as a junior next year and Munford ...

She's the one at Madness that pulled a Rondo, faking a behind the back pass and going in for a scoop layup. I was impressed.

Orion Outerbridge

Got voted on by the fans and coaches to play in the All-Star game on Sunday...the best Americans vs the best Europeans/Cypriots..should be a fun and entertaining game!!

Billyboy78

Although Cooley did rip his team's defense and called them soft, he did bring up that it was Council's first game back , trying to fit him in, and that Cotton was out....excuses, Big Bad PC from the powerful BE should never lose to Brown...under any circumstances.

Barkley was called "The Round Mound of Rebound" when he was coming pot of college.

I wonder if he travelled with the team to California?

https://twitter.com/dhurley15/status/282657245605531648 That's what I love about Hurley. He gets in these kids faces during practice and games when they do something wrong, but when they play well, he makes sure everybody knows it. He actually goes out of his way to praise his players, whether it b...

With Mike's improvement and his hard work, I'm now wondering if there are times next year when he and EC are on the court at the same time.

Billyboy78

Richmond's shot always reminded me of the old 2 hand set shot. His left hand never seemed to lose contact with the ball.

Billyboy78

If he was going to decommit, I doubt he'd be going to Missouri with Clark. EC wants to play PG in college and Clark is an even higher rated player than EC and Clark plays PG.

Billyboy78

Wow, he looks to be even more athletic now than he was in the AAU footage of him just a few months ago. He looks like he can do it all offensively and supposedly a very good defensive player too.

Billyboy78

Compare what our comments were about Jordan about a month ago to what our comments are now. He has only been a college basketball player for a couple of months and has made great strides already. Yes, he has a lot of areas he needs to work on, including his body, but I feel great about his future he...

Can we just ban this jerk? He's obviously here just to cause trouble and he offers nothing.

I agree. If you're not willing to tell us who you are, then SHUT THE HELL UP!

Almost had 5 double figure scorers. Hare with 9 and all the other starters in double figures.

The shooter killed his mother (confirmed), and possibly his father, girlfriend, brother or friend.

"Asshole" is much too kind a word in this case.

No, not really. I was among those hopeful. Obviously nobody knew exactly what was going to happen, and the idea of it working in our favor was obviously welcome on this board. But I don't understand hope people could have never considered the possibility that he Catholic schools could peel off some...

Billyboy78

I'm just looking at worst case scenario. If 3 or even 4 of the best teams leave the A10...if the new BE negotiates a deal to waive the 2 year waiting period...these are both a possibility. The Hurleys left Wagner because of their frustration with the lack of NCAA bids in their league. If the A10 is ...

Billyboy78

so then we/ll end up in a A-10ish kinda conference, with the trickle down effect being that the A-10 loss of teams to the new BE/C7 will result an effort to replace them with............ ....lesser teams. When all is said and done and the A10 is raided of its' top teams, I wonder what goes through ...

I'm getting sick to my stomach. The A10 and URI were supposed to be on the rise with a great future. I knew it was too good to be true.

Best scenario would be take all of the 7 into the A10 except PC...screw them.

Billyboy78

Dan is taking questions from the crowd. I'd like to know his feelings on the Big East developments and how it might affect URI, if anyone from here is going.

Billyboy78

I think he grossly underestimated the talent needed to have competed, and win this year. Can't say I agree with this. He's consistently been very honest about how little they have and what this season is about. It's not like he passed up some great talent, saying no thanks, we're good here. Interes...

Billyboy78

So, it seems possible, or even probable, that the Big East screws up the future of URI basketball twice in my lifetime....just wonderful.

Billyboy78

Are letters of intent still binding to all of the schools that will be affected by this?

Billyboy78

This does not sound good.

Here's what KMAC writes today. We know where his interests lie......"Just what could a basketball-first Big East look like? One insider insists a 10 team league would land a TV deal worth at least $15 million per year, or $1.5 million per team. Xavier, Dayton and Butler would fit smoothly in an...

Billyboy78

I would love a merger as it would solidify our situation for the foreseeable future. On a side note, How interesting would it be to see how URI and PC fare in the same league. I'm not sure their fans would know how to act without BE membership, and all of a sudden being on a level playing field wit...

I could see Minnis getting minutes at the 2 backing up Munford. Even though Minnis is listed as a PG and not a great shooter, his value could be defending the other team's 2. If EC is a good outside shooter, Minnis could team with him in the backourt on occasion. If your PG can shoot, it lessens the...
