I’d rather 3 teams 200+ and 3 teams Top 50 than that mediocre shit.

Does anyone remember URI beat SMU and Larry Brown at the Ryan Center

Yup, we had a few big road wins those years with not so great teams…SMU, LSU, Auburn

This may have been answered already, but why does Stone do football but not basketball?

Rhody15

He’s got a TD in all of our wins, 0 TDs in all of our losses.

21 carries for 76 yards in our 4 losses.

Rhody15

Doesn’t make sense, he’s got FIVE games with single digit attempts.

Pretty inexcusable.

Rhody15

Boy, not sure how St Bona was picked 3rd in the pre-season poll, they look terrible in the 10 minutes of this game I've seen. They are especially bad on defense in the paint. I think we match up very favorable with them. Schmidt doing his best Cox impression already burning all his TO's with 12:00 ...

This is why I don't understand the rants from Jon Rothstein pleading for the A-10 to reduce its slate of league games. He argues that the A-10 teams need to play more games against better opponents. How is that possible if a large number of the better opponents are eliminating OOC game opportunitie...

Don't worry Jru, 1. We are not going to collapse at the end anymore as we are not going to play the bench (even though I've heard how deep we are going 9-10 guys) 2. Archie is going to fix it by reviewing film and in meetings (even though it happened Game 1 and then again in Game 2) 3. Fairfield ju...

How are they holding him back? 18 shots in the first game, 11 last night. 20+ points both games. 33 minutes first game, 23 last. He’s had the ball a ton, don’t see how you think Archie is holding him back. He’s pretty much been allowed to do whatever he wants. 23 minutes in a 40 minute game for you...

Yea man definitely, I’ve been shitting on Archie nonstop and called him a massive disappointment. Ya got me.

Much like Obie used to do, here is a summary, and some highlights and "highlights," of the guesses for this year's contest... Pure Averages and Figures. We had 71 entries this year, with an average prediction of 17.27 wins, 13.73 losses, 9.1 A-10 wins and 8.90 losses. The crowd expects PP...

Northwestern is going to tell us everything. Ok. Well, what happens if URI torches Northwestern? Yale is going to be a challenge, but they are playing them at the Ryan. Charleston is going to be in SC. I really think that will be the difference. I just don't think a lot of people here are ready to ...

He may outscore the rest of the team combined.

They need to wake up

Rebounding NEEDS to improve if we want to do anything this season.

Good news for SLU, 7-ft/265 lbs, freshman rim protector from China. https://x.com/studurando/status/1722651683732238576?s=20 A huge unknown, but hey, seven foot is seven foot!

Is it normal in these type of coach suspensions that someone is specifically restricted from campus? This was in a WLNE pirce: “On September 27, Bryant University placed head basketball coach Jared Grasso on a leave of absence from coaching duties. He remains suspended from all university-related d...

They don’t do a great job full stop. But I don’t expect them to bc they are students. I’m not going scorched earth on it but these are all the little things that matter if you want to uplevel your program. And when your video audience is likely 4–5x larger than your audio audience then it should be...

The Clappin family is getting very good bang for their buck having their name prominently displayed on the scoreboard like it is. Very nice for them (and it benefits the school). Any idea how much something like this would cost? Their name is prominent for anybody walking by the field, anybody goin...

Rhody15

I’m still curious about what happened at Bryant that resulted in his suspension. There's a decent chance we'll never know, that we'll only have the gossip. I can't imagine it will be in Bryant's best interest for it to come out what happened under their watch and unlike a public school there's no w...

1. We would absolutely sell out for a team that made the FInal Four and was ranked #10 in the country. There's zero doubt. 2. Make it promoted by Barstool and add a P5 matchup after the game? Are you kidding me that we wouldn't sell out? 3. They only drew 5361 people. Against a FInal Four team rank...

Thank you. I felt it was pretty obvious what I meant, but we know how Rhody15 can get with reading comprehension... You are such a hack.

Example 2 and talking about the State Farm Tipoff don't count for Chicago drawing for basketball, that's literally other fanbases filling the venue, not Chicago sports fans. That would be like saying Boston can draw in college hoops because the TD Garden sells out for NCAA games. The fact that Loyo...

Kortright is one of the leaders and Ways is an awesome change of pace sub at the position. It’s been 1 game. You don’t demoralize a kid by benching him after 1 game. Kortright is also a much better on ball defender than Ways. Brown was our leading rebounder and is a junk pail type of guy. Please st...

Rhody15

I doubt he changes it too, but who knows. We have Northwestern and Mississippi State / Washington State and PC coming up soon so good to get the right guys identified quickly. I wasn't impressed by Kortright or Brown. Team needs a PG. It's not Kortright imho but it's early. When you are preseason r...

College basketball just does not draw in Chicago I guess. Looked like DePaul had about two hundred fifty people last night. Of course it's a pretty poor product as usual with them. Yes and no. Chicago, like Boston, is a pro sports town. However, college hoops can and has drawn in Chicago. You've go...

Some people will actually be happy about this because “it makes our path easier.” “Oh yea if we played them in A10 Final it would help” Or “Bye bye Smith bye bye!!” Or “Say it ain’t so Anthony Grant!

To be fair, if #10 FAU came to Kingston I doubt it would even sell out.

So, 2 players have to leave to fit Ben and Tyonne next year. I'm guessing Rory will be one. I have no idea who the other will be. Hopefully Jaden House doesn't decide to move up for a grad year. Would love to see him here for 2 years. Yes 78 at least 2 players will be gone, but who knows. You may e...

House is more than capable of playing 30+ minutes. It's his game. House wants to play. Let him. That's like saying let's rest EC or Terrell or Hassan. Maybe for a minute or two but that's it. Playing devils advocate here. It’s a long season. In these games against lesser opponents give your younger...

I'll add these couple to the blurb up above, just so I remember to include them in future updates. - Nicola Akele is in his sixth professional season. After his initial year in Serie A2 of the Italian leagues, he's been in Serie A for the past five years. (Note: Since he is Italian, this likely pos...

Wouldn’t say it was fun, didn’t think it was “bullshit” either. It was whatever, took about 45 seconds of real time to pass it along, didn’t get in my game vision. I view it as bullshit because it takes some thing other fanbases do organically, boils it completely down, then shits it out in the mos...

The long blue balloon chain passed around the arena was fun activity, No? Thinking about this some more, this was basically just the G rated, lame version of a beer snake then right?

He was hurt at the intrasquad scrimmage so I'm assuming it's that.

Rhody15

I like us in this game by around 10 being at home. I would like to see the D improve, however, and see us have less unforced turnovers. As an aside, I would like to see Rory come along if he is cleared to play. We have multiple scoring options and if Rory can come along and give us 2-3 three’s a ga...

And the best part about House and Montgomery...don't have to re-recruit them. They can't go anywhere without sitting so that means they aren't going anywhere.

House and Zek should be able to get 10+ almost every game, they score with ease. House is a bull in a china shop, full steam ahead. Zek reminds me of Lamonte Ulmer.

House and Ish had similar production levels in their good years, although in vastly different ways. Ish was a high efficiency player last year, whereas House is a player that attacks the rim and draws fouls. House is probably better for a "rebuilding" team that needs someone to do somethi...

My guess would be the overwhelming majority of teams shoot way better in practice than games.

If those translate over (which most of them won't) we would without question have the greatest FT shooting year in college basketball history.
