Re: Rhody Decade Best Moment

This is it for me. The 2017 NCAA return -- and it created momentum that carried into the following year. Winning a regular season title was likely a greater achievement. But the A10 tournament ended once and for all any URI frustrations that had built up over 18 years. https://twitter.com/BillKoch25...

I believe LSU in the 2013-14 season is the correct answer. That's just from flipping through the past few schedules. Want to say URI made $80K playing (and winning) that game.
