Re: Hassan Martin to miss remainder of the season

There's a nice little jab at Dan in a comment at the bottom of the SI Live article suggesting he should've stayed at Wagner.

Re: Game 25: Dayton Friday Feb 12, 7:00PM ESPN2

This is a game that I think many of us would've penciled in a loss at the beginning of the season, nevermind now with what has transpired. Based on what I've seen of this team, I would bet the farm on Dayton. Huh? URI was ranked higher in places at the beginning of the season (the supposed season i...

Re: Game 21: vs St Joseph Saturday Jan 30, 6:00PM TV: CBSSN

I asked my friends sitting around me at the RC to play a trivia game with me: Name one good thing 4 has done so far this game. At the under 8 timeout in the second half, we still couldn't think of a single thing. If he can't hit open 3's then why is he on the floor at all. 0-5 is terrible.
