people talking about "higher" goes right through me.
higher can only be the top 35--> after that its not that difficult to be on the cusp of breaking in there.
05-10 we were right there.
The "higher" schools basically look for the homerun NBA 1st rounder.

I hate the sanitation. Fanatical Fans?! jk

I like a bar supporting them --> Rhody mist, Charlie's Rams,

I cant think, if welker signs with Denver I will be down and out.

You guys are always so tough on hare and sky high on the guys in-wait. I hope the guys coming in are THAT good. As everything is, i am sure it is somewhere in between. Hare is only like outerbridge in the jumping department. Outerbridge thought he was Channing Frye and Hare at least doesn't stray fr...

I always enjoyed my time in Wilmington. Great school/city. I am a little fearful of the A10 moving WAY south..... Worth noting that the southern move has caused problems for our football program. I know basketball is the flagship and our sole interest I like our history-- regardless of what anyone s...

Anyone chirping about DH apolotweet yet. I cant imagine a bus ride to Phili.... is that the norm?

Hurley's dad for AD.... lets go all in.

Call me crazy again but with all the grass farms in southern RI --> The grass does seem to be greener here.

Clearly Dan and Bobby are in a hurry to get back into their bunk bed in Jersey and resurrect two NJ programs that never had more success then us. Is it me or does living off of rt 4 making the better part of 1million seem like a good life? Abandoning a bunch of kids he has ties to..... Sure he leave...

Ever notice that every building on campus has an anchor or some kind of anchor representation on it?? I have. Most of the buildings do -- Why dont we have a huge anchor outside of the RC?? be cool to touch it for luck? I think so

Seawrightspostgame

I like the new symbol a lot. The old interlocking RI is cool also. Nothing wrong with some change. I like the design tho!

Awesome job in your google search.

(In reference to the NIT berth) I am not calling the NIT success next year. Love the progress. Love the fight. Love the attention to detail, and unwillingness to concede anything. No way I call the NIT a success next year. Cant imagine guys not progressing, and the team really rounding into form wit...

Seawrightspostgame

I was thinking St Joe's also. I've seen or read that they don't play defense! Which is perfect for us. We struggle offensively so hopefully we lock them up with the D we obviously have. the next few weeks can be very exciting

Seawrightspostgame

Seems like it is more important for the start up sports channels that are trying to compete with ESPN to be able to land the new C7. Just considering the established tradition and their brand already having clout. ESPN doesn't need the C7 that bad. I am guessing that ESPN could easily replace the C7...

I've been wondering if it all was going to come down to a last game showdown with Umass for a Win and in scenario.

Seawrightspostgame

SERIOUSLY - why does Lebron get 3 steps? They make money off the LBJ hype... like Miami will make it out of the east off the idea alone that they need Miami in every series to maximize exposure and revenue. How this relates to us.. Kentucky and UNC being bubble teams. Those teams aren't better than ...

Seawrightspostgame

Its not even debatable that Baron was a horrible coach, he couldnt teach a half court offense, couldnt set up a press and NEVER made adjustments at any point in a game or season. It was borderline genius to have the bar set so low and then when those low expectations are met, along come the COY awar...

Seawrightspostgame

Tristan Thompson alone is a better bigman then anyone PC has rolled out there in 20 years. I think his name alone gives credence to DH. Hurley has coached NBA talent, not guys fighting for a job, but guys teams are actually fighting for. Odom is our only guy like that in a long time.

Seawrightspostgame

I absolutely believe Hurley will stay. He didn't follow Bobby to Duke and he understands as much as anyone the dead end that is Rutgers and Seton Hall. URI hasn't had success in over a decade and we still have the Ryan center, Dan Hurley and Bobby Hurley.IMAGINE THAT. Hurley has tweeted pictures of ...

Seawrightspostgame

Foul shots.... Turnovers.... Absolute killers. I like what we have seen from coach H early but maybe he needs an offseason to get better also. Breath of fresh air since Baron no doubt, but I wouldn't say that Hurley is done growing. HOPEFUL he hits his stride at the same time as the talent level. Lo...

Seawrightspostgame

Love this thread. I think TJ is a serious variable for all of the posters on here believing that the new comers will rule. I also remember guys posting on here how TJ is fearless and can both score and shut a guy down. Tj also seems to be the guy that is changing physically (beefing up) more then th...

Seawrightspostgame

I dont think The new guys next year are a good comparison to integrating guys back from injury midseason. Certainly there is a challenge, but I say less of a challenge than trying to throw out 2 NBA prospects into the starting lineup from injury OVER a kid(cotton) that has been actually playing like...

Seawrightspostgame

PC didn't try as hard as they needed. Brown has some height and some great 3point shooting. Dunn?? he didn't look special. His body didn't seem strong; just how he played defense seemed like had obviously been hurt for a long time. The way he played the full court press looked like URI(2011). Cotton...

Seawrightspostgame

Yeah I love Hurley and I am enjoying the fact our team is getting better. A10 coming up. The fact Brooks hedges those screens so hard and fights inside is amazing. I still wish he would just try to finish like a maniac anytime he gets it dumped off, but if he can lay it in with a few fakes that is f...

Seawrightspostgame

Can't get rid of the Bonnies. Not with A10 heavyweight alumni like Jim Barron.

Seawrightspostgame

I am relieved to see some media coverage pointing out the fact that the C7s have only similar success in basketball as the A10. I agree coaching is a huge factor, X's coach, Brad Stevens, Smart at VCU, and even Mooney at Richmond have all stayed when other teams came to woo them away. They all have ...

Seawrightspostgame

Richmond, Rhodey, VCU, St Joes, and maybe Umass if they don't bolt is really not bad at all-- George Washington? they suck Worst thing is the lost momentum the A10 had. Butler just knocked off the #1! The inflation of the value that the C7s enjoy is just painful URI= Best front Court in the North Ea...

Seawrightspostgame

I think when there is a re alignment people inflate the value of teams. PC is worth Cooley and his ability to put Ledo on the floor with Dunn in the next couple years, other wise they are back to being awful. St Johns has been awful. Nova beat St Josephs in the last .10 seconds at home. Seton Hall??...

Put Brutus back in Timeout for being a Nazi!

Hopefully things workout for us....

In other news.... I am glad Brutus was put in TO

At least URI people can control that!

Seawrightspostgame

Maybe they can create standards for A10 membership?? like they do in football with the amount of seats a stadium can accommodate. Then the lower tier programs would just go to conferences that suit them. I like that.

Seawrightspostgame

the ESPN articles came today and led this discussion. First it was the 7 catholic schools were thinking of protecting themselves. Then it was the A10 had already considered different ideas to gain those programs. Usually ESPN plays things safe and pushes it's own agenda to create money for itself. S...

Seawrightspostgame

I think it is a push. http://businessofcollegesports.com/2012/03/02/how-much-money-do-conferences-earn-from-march-madness/ More bids, more money. A10 6 bid league this year? I've read that. Big East parlays their TV contract into multiple bids in the tourney and more revenue. Without the elites brin...

Seawrightspostgame

If the Big East name was worth anything, then they would have been able to keep their founding members. I don't think the catholic schools have very much leverage. None of those teams rival the success of VCU Butler and Xavier in the past 10 years. There are multiple articles about Xavier chartering...

Seawrightspostgame

Nothing wrong with beating a bad team. The PC game was painful, but only because they were a few plays away from a 5 point lead in the first half, if not a bigger lead? The 2 passes to brooks downlow? he couldnt finish 5 feet from the basket- The Nik breakaway intentional foul? That was a huge no ca...

Seawrightspostgame

Virginia Tech is getting national press and they are the only team to really put it on us. We have been better every game. 2 out of the last 3 were wins and the loss was by 3. Aside from Batts, who else does PC have that you would rather have today in a game than our guys. The 3Ms are an awesome thr...

Seawrightspostgame

I am certainly excited with the intensity we are seeing. We were in both of our first 2 games and a few bounces of the ball and we win. I think our team learns how to win with what we have. Teams don't have to be juggernauts in order to win games. Our newcomers are just settling in and we are starti...

I think he has shown he is athletic and he is tall and he does not suffer from the 7footer 3point shooter disease. So i think he is a breath of fresh air. Tall athletic and getting coached up. I also think Christmas is a good bench mark for improvement from him.

After the 90s it seems we are always looking for the next thing. I am excited over Matthews, just like I was over Lucky but I would like to be excited over what we have on the floor again.
