I heard it opened at 4.5. My online sportsbook has 6.5 so I am sure there was a lot of early action on Maryland. I was also predicting 8 or 9

I thought the same thing when I heard about the rule changes including the 30 second shot clock since that will lead to more possessions. 5 is not enough

Anybody know if you can watch this game on the cbs sports app? I may be away from my TV in the first half

I'd be down for that. I do a contest with a few of my friends for guessing NFL lines

My guess is Vegas will have it about an 8 or 9 point spread

I guess the silver lining is that EC will be back in 2016 and should be completely healthy a full year later. I think we all agree there was a good chance that this year would have been his last year in Kingston so atleast we know we will have him on next year's team.

If the tourney is set up like the previous ones, we will also be getting two home games. I think that is likely a given. This is always a plus as it gets two home games without any required future return games or payouts. That is the case this season with the Cancun Tournament as we get Cleveland S...

I really hope we get Duke in one of the games. How often does Duke, other than the ACC-B10 Challenge, play an OOC game on a court that has more fans there cheering for another team? It would be a once in a lifetime chance to see a matchup like this so close to home. Did you watch last year's nation...

So no Florida? I thought that was the rumor

To me, this is must see TV!

They lost to Pace by seven at home last year. I smell a rout.

Give me a dunking Lanning Ram any day of the week. He was cool and mean. I am old school when it comes to the uniforms.

jmck

Do it right. Have a grass game day surface and turf enclosed practice facilities. That is what most everybody else is doing at our level. If Bryant, Brown, PeeCee can upgrade their facilities to keep up with the competition, so should we.

jmck

They just don't make plays. Albany's first touch they fumble, we don't recover, then a thirteen play drive for a TD. Next play, They pooch the kickoff and nobody wants to catch it. First and ten with a short field. I would rather get beat going for balls and blitzing the crap out of them than lettin...

Tale of 2 half with the refs. Wisconsin got every call in the first half including phantom foul calls on winslow and okafor and Duke got every call in the second half. Can we just agree that the refs suck? It's amazing that people think there is a conspiracy. I think the refs made the right call on ...

Yes, it is a little known codicil, akin to the double secret probation clause in the Faber University charter.

Basket interference on Louisville not called. Harrell's hand was inside the rim on Costello's reverse. Could be a big swing.

jmck

Bryant would rather play at UConn for the exposure and the 80K than get stomped by us in a "Quahoug Classic."

jmck

I know that I am a homer, but I thought I saw quite a few clear outs with a forearm on drives by Stanford players.

jmck

That ball was not in the cylinder and was not going to make it there.

jmck

Tyson was pretty much a one man show his freshman season. I would bet that a lot of his turnovers were the result of guys that could not keep up with him.

jmck

Doesn't matter what year, or what team. You get into a close game with Duke in crunch time, you're going to get hosed. That happened to us more than once. It's happened to a lot of teams, that have a far better rep than we have. It's just reality. Some teams, you're got to put them away, and not le...

Let's not lose sight that the increase in total attendance brought an additional $200K to the URI Athletics and this money can be spent on more program upgrades as well as bringing benefits to other URI sports. I wonder how much extra money Rhody Pub generated? Every time I was there it was packed ...

9.5 turned out to be a perfect number. Youncofski with the "game winning shot" for alot of us

Making the trip to Barclay's next weekend. Does anybody know if they serve alcohol at the tournament? I've been to NCAA tourney games and I know they prohibit alcohol sales there so I am wondering if the A10 tourney is the same

I am an even bigger idiot. I watched to the second tv to of the second half. It seemed like Iowa State was just going to rollover and the arena was a morgue. I was shocked as S!@# when I woke up this morning and saw that the Cyclones won.

Temple NIT game was in the mid 7000s, but not a sellout. NIT games are difficult to sell out since season tix are not sold automatically.[/quote] They are also difficult to sell out if they still charge students like they used to. I remember paying $6 to watch the 04 team take on BU. Hard for broke ...

I don't know how anybody can say there is no chance at an at-large. Go 24-8 with a loss in the finals and we probably have say a 30% chance at getting a bid. I thought I saw somebody post actual statistics that we would have a 48% chance if we got to 24 wins. I think that is a little too high but at...

I believe that John Bennet was the player involved in the accident. Had a huge game at UMass for us, RIP.

How are ticket sales looking for this one? Will the crowd exceed UMass game or will it be less. Doesn't look like sales went as hoped. In section 213 alone, pretty good seats, there are almost 100 left. There are a lot more seats available on game day than there were against UMass. Going to need a ...

Mike Moten was more than just a back up big guy. He was unlucky to be playing behind Jeff Kent for three years. Say what you want about Kent, but I know he made a good amount of coin overseas. Moten had a monster throwdown dunk driving down the lane in a comeback win over PeeCee. It was the best and...

In 09/10 I think we had about three or four games where if we had won we would be in. Failing every time. Just ridiculous. Its really looking like we'll need to win all of our games up until the finals. All these other bubble teams have favorable schedules and seem to be playing very well. Many of ...

I think Jim Harrick is the #2 man in the history of URI hoops behind Frank Keaney. This is coming from one of the biggest fans of Al Skinner that you will ever meet. Without Harrick, the Ryan Center is never built. I echo RhodyRam02 that you cannot blame Harrick for Petro and Carothers for mangling ...

It would seem the hiring of Paul Hewitt to replace Jim Larranaga was an unmitigated disaster. It is hard to believe that this program made the Final Four just nine years ago (2006).[/quote]

also hard to believe Hewitt made a national championship game 11 years ago

I already booked my hotel (Brooklyn Bridge Marriott). Haven't decided what I'm going to do for tix yet. I am also at Brooklyn Bridge Marriot with 8 others for a bachelor party. We only have tickets for Saturday at $52 for lower level behind the basket on an angle. If they advance then we will hang ...

Forgot it was 2015 and people get offended over every little thing. It was a joke. If somebody actually did something like that I'd be sick to my stomach and embarrassed to be a URI grad. Sometimes words are just that, words. There was no ill will intended and as I mentioned I admire what the kid did.

jmck

Regarding sellouts....how the hell does this game not sell out when the Nebraska game did? Our #1 A10 rival, playing for first place, fairly late in the season. You would think that with the number of people coming from Amherst, it would sell out. Anyway, let's hope for at least 7000, with students...
