Figured I would start this up. Game is on now on ESPN3. Loving the new road uniforms!

Wow I love the new road uniforms!

adam914

The idea that Shengalia would help with anything at all is flat out laughable.

Such an underrated movie. Very funny. And SHIT is a fine institution.

adam914

Did Dan make further comments about Hare and practice last night or was someone just referencing what was said after the exhibition game? Yeah he did. In the press conference videos earlier in the thread, when asked about Hare, he again mentioned the lack of work and picking up the offense in pract...

adam914

Thanks for posting those videos. Hare must really be struggling in practice. Every time his name is brought up Hurley talks about that.

adam914

Yeah don't think we'll be seeing that again, on the east coast at least. Maybe out here in San Diego again, but even that one got postponed from tonight to Sunday. Only difference there was that they did it a few days ago and it didnt affect the rest of the teams schedule at all.

Would have been nice to get something from Hare.

Nik was fun!

You make a solid point.

adam914

Pretty disappointing finish. There were some glimpses of potential there, but the offensive side of the ball is going to be a struggle all year. Nik played really well, of course he did still manage to get a tech, and I'm willing to bet it won't be his last. Munford and Malone couldn't hit anything,...

adam914

In a tough spot now, down 6 with just under 4 minutes to go. Big free throws coming up for Nik here.

adam914

Yeah for sure, losing Nik would be an absolute disaster. He already looks like a very different player this year. The key will be consistency, and playing this way even when maybe things aren't going our way.

adam914

Rough start to the second half, lots of standing around and the defensive intensity is gone. Good timeout by Hurley, need to turn it back on here or we're going to get buried.

adam914

All things considered, have to be pretty pleased with the first half. Effort is definitely there. Scoring won't always be easy, but between Nik, Malone and Munford we will hopefully have somebody on any given night.

adam914

Hare definitely is going to be a bit of a project, but he had a big hand in those two 3's by Nik. One keeping the ball alive on the offensive glass and then the other by altering a shot on the defensive end that led to the break.

adam914

Offense definitely hard to come by early on.

adam914

Very surprised to see Brooks starting

adam914

No idea, dont have an iPad, but probably not since it is Flash

Working for me as well. Try refreshing if the Watch Now button is not showing yet under live events.

Stream is working so far...damn Hurley is amazing.

adam914

Well the moment we have all been waiting for has arrived. The start of the Hurley Era! Let's hope we can open things up with a W.

adam914

Good stuff...win or lose, I honestly can say I have not been this excited for a Rhody hoops game in quite some time.

adam914

As if you needed another reason to want to head to the RC on Friday!

adam914

Bought my subscription a few days ago. Can't wait for Friday!

What does Hurley know about soccer? Sign him up...

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Ive never wanted to lose a contest so much in my life.

That's fine, let's just win 84-20 then!

adam914

Thats great, pretty clear they see him as a big piece of this team.

adam914

Other than a 7-footer who has only played 3 minutes per game in his first two years, they max out at 6'8" in terms of height, so hopefully this is a game we can win with our guard play. EDIT: I take that back, looks like he will be starting, and be backed up by another 7 footer. http://www.nsus...

From Coach Carr on Twitter...

adam914

Thanks for all the input from your guys that were there. It was exciting even to just listen to the game online tonight, but I really can't wait to get my first look at this team on Friday (assuming it will be streamed).

adam914

Without putting too much stock in one half of an exhibition game, Munford sounds like he will be a focal point of the offense.

Nope he's out there now.

Brooks off the bench before Hare as well.

adam914

Interesting pregame comments from Hurley on the radio. Said offensively they will play very close to the vest and not show much, because we have a game that counts next Friday and you never know who's watching. Said this game will be alot more about defense. No TJ tonight, they are hoping he will be...

adam914

Haha wow, can't be much more clear than that.

adam914

Look, I don't care what record we have this season, because it won't matter. What I want to see is progress, a cohesive offense, and defense that shows up for every game. I want to see every player progress as the season goes on. With this staff, I have every confidence, all of this will come to pa...

adam914

Lets also not put too much stock in the prediction contest either. Maybe some of them really think we'll hit those high win totals, or maybe they are just trying some strategy to be one of the few to pick a winning record. Hard to know for sure either way. I think if you read through most of the pos...

Thats kind of how I feel about it as well. Its just one more weapon for next season when I hope/think we'll make a big jump in wins.

Yeah, now that I see it up there it does look better on the bottom.

adam914

What are everyone's expectations for the game? I don't want to see us win simply because we are more athletic (throwing alley-oops over an undersized D3 Team, out running CG on fast breaks, etc.). I would like to see well executed set-plays (solid screens, pick and rolls, good PG play, boxing-out) ...

1. 10-19
2. 5-11
3. DNQ
4. UMass, 68-61

Bonus: Andre Malone, 14.11 ppg

I should also add I hope I am completely wrong and its really reversed.

adam914

Wow sure does make the schedule sound rough when laid out like that. Great to hear them say that they are scheduling with at-large bids in mind though.

adam914

So I know there has been mention of the Cox Sports online streaming again for this season, but I'm curious if anyone has heard any details about when the streaming scheduled will be released or if it will just mirror the Cox TV schedule. Would love to be able to see the Coast Guard game online if po...

adam914

Great stuff guys, thanks for the reports.

adam914

Agreed, I fall mostly in your #1 situation. I'm just looking forward to seeing this team develop over the year and start the rebirth of this program. Going to be an up and down season in my opinion, but I do feel like there will be an upset or two along the way.

adam914

Seems like its just safe to assume we play without him this year. If he somehow becomes eligible it'll be a pleasant surprise. Even more to look forward to for next year I guess.
