I guess no one wants to talk about the River Hawks

From what I saw in Arizona, and others there agreed with me, looks like Gil is now very close to 100%. Don't know for sure, but he looked like he was moving well. That and he played the most minutes he's played all season.

Added some game/team info to first post in thread... see above. Cheers!

How do you do it ramboner? How do you successfully take a pessimistic dump on every thread?

THE SKY IS FALLING!! Florida State blowing out VCU. FIRE SHAKA SMART!

Biggie came out of the locker room after the Metro State game and the URI fans who stuck around gave him a nice round of applause. He was smiling from ear to ear and brimming with confidence. It was nice to see. It seemed like a piano was lifted off his back.

Am I thrilled with the product? No, of course not. Thrilled would be a 5-0 record at this point. Believe me... I don't want a string of 20 win seasons without any post-season reward either. I want NCAA tournaments and I want to make runs in that tournament. But not this year. To say they have played...

RoadyJay

I think I assumed 3-2 or 4-1 around now. An L Is an L as a W is a W. Move on lets beat Umass Lowell. They can't score with hockey sticks on a basketball court. Lets just keep playing and move on. No. Double no. Triple no. That mentality is what got Jim Baron a 10 year contract, and us a mess to dig...

RoadyJay

Of course you can have opinions. It's certainly fair to be critical. I'm just surprised how many of those opinions seem closer to "the sky is falling" than they are to things are "ok". GBG, you say you wouldn't be surprised if they finish in the top half of the league? That likel...

The team is back from Arizona and preparing to play the UMass-Lowell River Hawks. UMass-Lowell is new to Division I this year, playing in the America East. The River Hawks formerly competed in the Northeast-10 Conference at the Division II level. Last season they finished 15-13 (10-12 in the confere...

Ummm... The only game I have not seen IN PERSON is @ SMU, and that one I watched streamed to my TV. What I see is a much more talented team than we saw last year What I see is a team with a tremendous amount more potential than last year's team What I see is a team that will have half it's win total...

Here we sit 3-2 with a very good chance of being 7-2 or 6-3 going into the PC game and many of you just want to b*tch. Hard to believe after we only won 8 games all of last year.

RoadyJay

Agree. I want the best teams to come and play us AND I also want Baron and Canisius. Praying it happens.

I've debated in my head about the style of play question. At first I said.. Of course, we need to slow the game down and revert back to the style of last season. Run down the shot clock and hope to get off a good shot with a few seconds to spare. I've changed my mind. One, I don't think it gives us ...

President Dooley was there. He is a great supporter of this program and very knowledgeable about the game. He also stayed for the Arizona game. He's obviously a big basketball fan. I have not seen Thorr. There is a fairly sizable contingent of Rhody fans here. Great to see the support. We were loud ...

For anyone in Tucson for today's games some of us are planning to meet up by 4pm at Gentle Ben's for a snack and a beverage, or two.

Yes, he is here. Good to see. I'll join in with the cap tipping.

Just saw the Metro State team come into the hotel. I know one cannot judge basketball ability by watching them walk into a hotel lobby, but I thought they looked like a high school team. Bunch of short skinny dudes. I was shocked. We should seriously dominate these guys down low.

Trying to find some relationship between Metro State Div 2 and some or any of the div 1 schools that we are familiar with. The best I can find, is a listing of the current top 25 and others in div 2. Anybody familiar with any of these teams? I know Findlay, #11 in D2, gave Dayton a run for their mo...

I'd like to know how they scouted this team

By the way... Metro State won again today

Lively campus. There was a football game here today. AZ lost to Washington St. Great college atmosphere here.

That amazing feeling inside the moment you tear your ticket from the season ticket book.

Go Rhody!!!!

RoadyJay

I want them to go to the game!! My point is you just need to show up!

No ticket necessary!!

RoadyJay

Exactly, so why is his girlfriend trying to get tickets?

RoadyJay

I didn't think they had student tickets anymore? I thought you just needed your ID.

RoadyJay

Great job, Jim. You obviously have a great handle on the content of this message board and what's on our collective minds. See you Monday!

RoadyJay

I think I'm the only one to post here that I like them... I'll also admit my taste in fashion is awful.

RoadyJay

Hopefully we come out tomorrow night with a chip on our shoulder. Hopefully the crowd is fired up as well. Let's make some noise and get behind this team!

RoadyJay

I agree bone. Makes me more convinced it's an anomaly and not who we are. Expecting good things tomorrow night.

RoadyJay

Has anyone seen a tweet from any member of the basketball team since the SMU game? Love it! Focus!

RoadyJay

Watching Detroit v UCONN. Detroit doesn't play a lick of defense. They're down 29 early in 2nd half.

RoadyJay

I never heard of such a streak as bad as that. It must be a record.

RoadyJay

This game note hurts:

"From the 3:29 mark of the first half against Maine until 48 seconds left in regulation against SMU, Rhode Island missed 27 consecutive 3-point FG attempts."

That's incredible!

I still can't believe everybody is so ready to give up on Minnis already. I agree he hasn't looked great so far, but what happened to all the talk over the offseason about rust and getting everybody used to playing together again? It's like everybody talked all summer about how this was going to ha...
