"Rhode Island recently offered Ntambwe. Rams head coach Dan Hurley is deeply tied into Ntambwe's people, having known Ntambwe's legal guardian Dave Caputo for over 20 years."

I went to the Crimetown Live event at Columbus theater in Providence. Saw Bobby Walason, Jerry Tillinghast, Gloria Kennedy, Mike Stanton. The podcast is fantastic and would recommend it to anyone.

I'll be enjoying a KB Thanksgiving in Brooklyn. How does 2-0 against the Big East sound this year, eh?

Ram1019

For those still wondering, according to Bryce Cotton's player bio he has 3 brothers and none named Matthue.

Wow....Really...cracking on Cooley because he is 1-4 in the tournament. ( lost twice to North Carolina , lost to Dayton on their home court You must have taken the PC course on revisionist history taught by instructor Kevin McNamara. The Friars did not lose to Dayton on its home court. They lost to...

MP2, I agree with your son. The Dunkin Donuts Center really does smell like pee.

Ram1019

Looking back, the Fordham loss might be the best thing that happened to this team. I read somewhere that Dan mentions that game to the team before every game since.

Ram1019

Same here. I was completely surrounded by a sea of black and yellow in Pittsburgh and all of them were very gracious to me as well.

Not at all. Hell I even watched the simulation game from the VCU thread 20 times.

Ram1019

Put me in the 'Cooley is a tremendous coach' camp. Really has the ability to coach players up to their true talents and potential. Congrats to the friyiz.

Ram1019

Not complaining...very happy :D :D :D Just asking, 11 seed? Were we out completely with a loss? https://twitter.com/davidworlock/status/841057571653992449 Would've still had the at-large in a play in game. Committee members confirmed this as well. The rest of this tweet was simply an added bonus.

Ram1019

You should've seen the look Dan gave the crowd after they called his name during the award ceremony. It was absolutely a "close that Jim Baron 2.0 thread" look. Too funny.

Ram1019

This message board is seriously fantastic and it really goes to show the level of passion of the fans of this program. Thank you to the mods and all who keep this thing running. Booked a last second plane ride last night. Dr. Dooley' s on my flight. Can't wait to cheer this team on. Go Rhody!!!

Fatigue is an issue with Davidson. Curious to see how it affects them today. It may translate to more-than-usual Jack Gibbs flopping.

Ram1019

If we dance I am flying to wherever that game is.

He definitely won't miss you, RoadyJay.

Some really great players. A pretty good job opening....

Ram1019

I'm looking for a huge presence with Jarvis making that extra pass. Hopefully Dowtin can find his shot. We need to play to our strengths which means more lethal EC left hand drives to the basket and less off balance perimeter shooting. Teams will definitely be ready for him this time so we better be...

Let's go DePaul! Do something right for once!

I've gone off on this subject in the past. The band needs to either improve or there should be no band at all. I am not one to usually be critical of things like this but the band, right now, is truly a huge embarrassment.

Hey my avatar! So sad to see Hass go. I can't even believe it's already been 4 years. Classy guy and hard worker. Thanks for the memories.

Cmon u VA Rams!!! Get this! Everyone rooting for Richmond and VCU tonight. AM I the only one that wants Dayton as the 1 seed and URI as the 4? I feel like we need to beat them in the semis to have the best chance at an at large. Also the 4 seed means we play Bonnie's which would be a much better wi...

Ram1019

Another wierd thing is if we win our semi v Dayton or VCU and we play first who do we root for in the next game VCU/Dayton or another team We have a better shot at beating a worse team but if we play Dayton VCU in the finals and lose we may have a better shot to dance than if we lost to Richmond or...

Ram1019

Great to see Dan be a little more aggressive with the substitutions and be open to switching to a zone--to which he said in the post game "was effective for us." What a great game!

Ram1019

Have to win Saturday and the remaining schedule and make the finals (which means beating a VCU or Dayton in semi's to get there) for any at-large chances. It's doable but not probable. I hope they prove me wrong. Just focus on one game at a time. Play with confidence. WIN! Have to break it to you b...

Playing with confidence and a little swag. Something this team needed a dose of.

Ram1019

Serious question: when was the last time we actually pushed the ball or had any kind of a fast break?

Ram1019

I truly think that staff believed that this was a good team to begin with and we just simply underachieved. I don't think it was an intentional sell job by any means. I think staff/fan base/media just overrated them. Now as far as underachieving, there is definitely an argument to be made about the ...

Ram1019

Agree with Rod based on what I've noticed in the culture of the program up north. Part of good coaching is the ability to focus on the present. Did the Patriots ever worry about how far they were down or let it affect their game in the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl? You have to forget about what alr...

Let's be honest. Baron did way more in his first 5 years with the school than Hurley has. And he hasn't had a year that even approached Baron's 2nd year with the school. Here's a question. Has any player in the 5 years that Hurley has been with the school made a big shot? Yeah I know Biruta won a g...

God this board is so depressing

Just thinking the same thing. They are going to be tough to beat.

Ram1019

I always think back to the game at home vs a ranked VCU team (two years ago?) when the game plan was an up-tempo offense. Even though we lost due to Traveon Graham's lights-out shooting towards the end for another classic Ryan Center heartbreaking loss, it was still a very effective game plan. We we...
