^ yup everyone here knows I liked the hiring of Coach Cox, but I also said we should have kicked the tires on Slick. People were concerned we would have lost the core of our players, slick could coach squirrels and badgers to an NCAA mbb tourney birth.

Running Ram

I love all the drama about Slick.

So if URI hired Slick and we got a couple of A10 titles and a few NCAA births, RF1 and a few others would be watching championship curling on espn 17 instead? right.

Yea, without Fox we would have been "up a shits creek without a paddle" as my dear mother used to say.

For two years he was pretty much our only guy that could "score the ball"

I've been a big DC fan since he joined the family, I really hoped he would make a fast adjustment to head coaching because he brings so much to the table otherwise and I'm not ready to say he should be a career assistant/recruiter but I am ready to question this team's heart, their tenacity. It's be...

I know its the wrong thread, but I actually think Hyland is the best guard in the A10, or at least if I were drafting a team with A10 players from scratch, I roll the dice choosing between Fatts and Hyland and wouldn't be disappointed at all if I got Crutcher. Those are the three best guards in the ...

Running Ram

Fatts was tearing it up until his injury. I'm not making excuses, but in my opinion he and Crutcher are on the same level, numbers don't define value.

During the Harrick years we played a lot of great games at PCC. Plus Jim was earning a piece of the gate so he wanted more butts in seats than he could get at Keaney. My all time favorite Rhody game at PCC was the 1987 game when Silk, Tommy and Co just ran the Friars off the court. Think we won by ...

I thought our D in the first half was pretty lacking, there were at least three times one of our guys was looking around clueless as Explorers streaked to the basket and received passes for lay-ups. Conversely, when on offense, too often some of our players are cutting without awareness. And there w...

Yes, well you can never count LaSalle Bakery out, with their world class cannoli's and pizza, they can really put the opposing players into a daze.

eli said it best, its the long stretches of casual play that is really killing us and yes it is a coaching issue. I remain hopeful that because DC is a smart guy he figures this mess out.

Running Ram

Bone, that's a good observation. It feels like we haven't been able to play against a zone for like a decade.

Running Ram

Yeah, I don't see him as laid back, don't know what the finer coaching issues are, I could blindly speculate, but I won't. I guess I could see him as coming off as laid back in some interviews etc. but not really during games.

If we keep core players for the duration of the time Ish is here there's no reason to believe we won't be a destination school, we can still achieve the continuing success we all desire. Kids aren't transferring out of Gonzaga to go to Spewconn or Chentucky. You can´t seriously be comparing us to G...

I feel like Carey is one of the guys that may be suffering from the lack of practice time this season. He looks and moves like an true athlete, with some need for increased court presence. Reps and reflection seem to be needed in Carey's case. Does anyone know if the team might record and review the...

adam, I've read enough of your posts to know you are much smarter than this... Has anyone really said that Cox should be fired now? I see a lot of people arguing against it, but haven't noticed anyone saying that he should be. I may have missed it, I don't read every post these days. When a forum me...

This forum gets worse and worse. You guys are unreal, ready to can Cox midway through covid season, his third season as a head coach. when Hurley was in his third season here it was his fifth season as a head coach and he was still cutting his teeth, he had plenty of shortcomings. I'm not making exc...

Absolutely amazing how people have been calling for Carey to be out of the rotation, yet wanting Harris and have been questioning why he isn’t playing and saying it has to be an injury or disciplinary and not that he just isn’t good. Harris didn’t play today because he sucks, has always sucked, and...

Running Ram

Everyone needs to remember that Fatts is still the best player on the floor(hard stop)

Running Ram

Bones is a nightmare for opposing teams (us in this case) hopefully we can disrupt his game early and often, get him playing on his heels for a while.

Running Ram

I don't get into the timeout debate really, but did y'all catch that we made a push to cut it to 4 and Richmond takes a TO, just sayin.

I had to log on to ask why they just blew the whistle on that steal by Fatts? the refs just beat us for 2 points, that's crap.

Have I mentioned that I can not stand this school or their men's bb program lately? I despise this team only a fraction less than PeeCee. Of all the cheap shit that has happened to us from dirty plays to home town ref's St. Joe's must account for half

Just looking for injury info. Hoping Jermaine is ok. I'm a big fan, hope he can keep his spirits up!

I don't want to debate anything about anything or weigh in about last night's game, I just want to know if anyone has any info on Harris' injury. I for one would like to see him play and believe we are much better off with him being available rather than not. Also I really feel for him right now. Ma...

Anyone know the diagnosis? Yes, hopefully Makhi is looking at a full recovery for next season.

I for one sympathize with Dana, these situations are serious to adults (the current sitch with the sneaking his GF on campus and the borrowing his own car back) but one can understand how a 20 yo might think otherwise. The problem in both cases is Dana is fucking with people's money, especially this...

Running Ram

What's going on Waldorf? you've made a couple of reasonable observations recently. Less pessimism than I'm used to from you.

I agree and share your opinion, there may be good reasons to not play a game in that time frame but w/l to Wisconsin shouldn't be one of them.

Yup Pee Cee's chances of beating us this year zero point zero....

Rhody 87 PeeCee 64

A total blow out!

Btw, apparently we're 5-1 in our last 6 against the BE, that must be why they directed Pee Cee to duck us, they are embarrassed of the record we are compiling against them.

Blue Man, this thing about Cox not calling time outs isn't anything new....he's done this many times. In this regard, he reminds me of Al Skinner....for all you older folks who remember. Ha!

Running Ram

Ok, we may need some time to gel as was the original concept, but I can say every player that took the court last night for Rhody looked like they could make an impact for us at some point this season. Some we weren't sure about have already made an impact, Walker, Johnson, Shepard all had big games...

I only mentioned the likelihood of attendance as a response to Ramulous' concern noted before Chance committed. I never assume anything or allow my expectations to go wild, but I can see Chance having a lot of success here and being a big part of a winning culture.

Honestly, who cares about Temple? They are just a team to beat this year, they don't project as much of an opponent and the conference they're in doesn't matter if they are lousy at the game. This is not even a little bit like pee cee duckin, despite our time together in the A10 (URI and Temple) the...

Yeah, if that's the case, not happening. I'll listen to Don and Stevie assuming they're calling the games.

Also, if we win and stay in the top three or so in the A10 there's no reason to believe Chance won't stay committed and attend.

Where's slim to tell us what a bad commit this is? just joking. This is a very cool early commitment. Go Rhody!

And he killed us in Keaney the year we went to the sweet sixteen, Temple was ranked #1 in the nation for a week or two that year I believe.

When was the last time a son of a former Rhody player actually committed to URI? I don't think it has been any time in the last few decades.
