But does Kenpom factor in the Froggy the Fan variable?

PC fans are constantly belittling URI as "irrelevant" and many actually believe UCONN is their rival. Do you think if we were really irrelevant and unimportant the Dunk would have sold out last Saturday? As far as the coverage, just beat them and it will stop. As sad as it is, attendance n...

Ram1019

Unfortunately the crowd on Saturday will have even less Rhody fans due to the fact that PC season ticket holders were allowed to buy extra tickets before the general public. Along with that, when the general public was finally able to buy tickets it wasn't until a week before the game tips off. So ...

Last time I saw Rhody play Valpo it was on an airplane yelling and waking up fellow passengers when Four missed two 3's at the end. Lets hope for a different result tonight. Go Rhody!

Big week. Lets not lose either game shall we?

Edited for correction

There are a few of these top 25 programs that lost to non-ranked teams and stayed in the top 25. If we lose just one game, we're out.

There was an NCAA soccer match for PC last night vs Creighton that decided who goes to the Elite 8 which might explain the lack of coverage for the Virginia game in FL.

A big rematch game from the big east tournament. I must say that soccer team is very impressive.

Brutal video but funny. Dicky V thinks "Rhode Island is the real deal"

I can't wait to read all about the Grambling game in the cover of tomorrow's projo sport's section.

Ram1019

This game could be a rock fight and will probably be decided in the final minute

The issue with the band isn't on the kids, the conductor, or really anything but the music department. I believe the pep band isn't even a full class credit or compulsory - it's totally volunteer. Unless the music department decides to give any of the musicians at URI any incentive to play at the g...

I have been told numerous times by older people to sit down and have seen older people order other fans to sit down. It's amazing.

Hard to give our guys that extra competitive edge on home turf when we have to act like it's a funeral.

Dan's gonna have to slam down another chair soon

That camera angle under the basket is brutal

Tell us how you really feel, Jim.

So many players with solid talent up and down the bench. Should be a fun year. I was especially pleased to hear the crowd go wild when EC's name was called. For a first game back, obviously he looked excellent. Stan is as good as I hoped. Veteran player with that TJ Buchnann-type energy off the benc...

Pleased to hear they've been working on moving the ball more offensively. The offense seemed very stagnant at times last year. Obviously, a full puzzle helps the cause.

Ha! Just checked in on this thread and it doesn't look like the scrimmage was very secret! Oh what depth we have...

Ram1019

Oh man! Too funny. I chuckled when Dan said that. It is true though....

Ram1019

My suggestion for a sign would be an EC sign and something related to the Collective Soul song "Feeling Better Now" which ESPN deemed as our "top 25 team theme song."

Ram1019

Or even a Kmac vote!

Ram1019

Ahh beat me to it Rhody15.

Ram1019

It was very obvious that Dan is a HUGE fan of Dowtin.

Ram1019

Per Dan, EC went 4-7 and 5 assists in the scrimmage. Gave him some a good amount of minutes in the first half and only a few minutes to start in the second half to help transition back to game mode. I will tell you he looked good in the open practice today.

Ram1019

If attendance is still lagging if this team starts winning games, are ranked in the AP polls, maybe beat a Providence team for the first time since I was a college student, close out a tight game, successfully draw up and execute a final play, win a game at home against a (true) top 50/top 25 RPI te...

I love McNamara's statement that URI has to strive to have the type of program Duke and Providence have. That's one of the funniest things I have ever heard. Duke and PROVIDENCE!!!!! I doubt we'll ever get to Providence's level. But, maybe we can at least be as good as Duke. This pretty much epitom...

That is that uniform, but the untucked jersey is covering the blue part with the swirls.

Oh yeah...didn't catch that. The more I look at the blue shorts the more I think I could get used to it.

Now that uni is WAY nicer than the blue shorts with the ram horn stripes.

"Asked about playing at URI, the 6-foot-6 Lawrence said, “I was a little interested. Jared Terrell played on my AAU team [Expressions], but they kind of faded away.' "

"They kind of faded away"? Is it possible we actually stopped recruiting him? I seriously doubt that...

Rhody wins! Great game

I was secretly hoping we had a chance

It'd be nice to finally get a Rhode Islander who isn't a coach's son.

Nerd alert warning: As a person who works for a pension fund, I don't think 7.5% is not necessarily a high assumption. Most funds (public and private) hover around 7-8% investment assumption. There are going to be down years, especially for the way the state pension is allocated. The hedge funds are...

As cheesy as this sounds, I'd be pretty pumped if that Collective Soul song came on at the Ryan Center right after EC drops 25 points and the opposing team has to call a time out.

Dan Hurley Basketball Camp is happening now I think

Pick Dunn and trade him to Sixers. But anything can happen.

Only on this board would we find negativity in some way on this lol

I brew my own beer and have tried almost all of the local breweries so I am fussy with quality. I must say that I am most impressed with Proclamation Ale Company. Whatever they are doing is very impressive. If you like IPA's definitely check them out!

Good for Andre!
