I don’t understand any negativity right now. This is basketball. Players and teams make mistakes. It’s never a perfect game. We won on the road in a place that we usually don’t. Enjoy it. Where is the negativity? Feels like good vibes. Maybe the best vibes in a few years. Conference road wins are g...

We are fortunate that this Davidson team does not shoot like a Davidson team. They had a lot of opportunities to hurt us but haven’t made a FG in the last 4 minutes. Tons of credit to us but we have some things to work on if we are about to get serious about this season - lots of empty possessions d...

I thought for sure when house missed those two free throws with 6 minutes left we were dead. But somehow we keep having answers. Just a couple more answers needed to close this out.

I believe that a lot of them believe they are trying their best. I see these guys with these smug smirks on their face as they make a terrible call, and I’m damn near certain I know exactly what I am watching and why. Do they know what I am watching and why? I kind of doubt it - people aren’t as sel...

Imo there is a serious shortage of qualified refs. So many teams and games at all types and levels of sports. It's a thankless job and even if you are a good ref you hear it from one side or the other. They all fuck up now and then that's for sure. Look at the NFL. With the amount of money being be...

Damn people are big mad about this one haha. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Don’t want to respond to everything that is being said here, but just two quick thoughts: whoever said “change it around but substitute a race for “cop”, I’d just point out that people do not choose to be a particular race whereas people do choo...

Because I've watched it 253 times so far - can someone explain how Luis' shot wasn't and and-1 situation? Dude got cleared out by the body while he was still in the air and the defender made almost zero attempt at the ball. Those were some of the worst officials I've ever seen. That over the back c...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQjNmWhOfkM Hearing Archie say that Fuchs might someday risk it all to go after a ref might be the thing that puts me over the line in terms of being in his corner. I already thought he was getting a raw deal on here before and came to his defense a little then, but ...

Wow. Weston and Green huge. Love to see it.

I think Miller will resign at the end of this season if things do not turn around.....Just listening to his press conference. I think his timeline is this year only. no improvement. He will leave right or wrong. That's what I think I never really thought of that. But it could happen. I would think ...

I like the idea of trying to solve for this by putting Rory into the game lol

For maybe the first time in the almost twenty years I’ve been on this board (and its predecessors), I’m fresh out of things to say. Not even really sure what to think.

We should take the training wheels off Foumena. Play him until he can’t breathe.

If we lose this game I’m canceling my ESPN+ subscription and will check back in next season.

Best case for URI is that Green plays because of the injunction, at some point the NCAA wins this case and the 2nd transfer rule is reinstated, the NCAA allows players who started playing because of the injunction to continue for this season then next season revert back to the old system. In the lon...

I checked the score 10 minutes ago and it was a four point game, seemed like it would go down to the wire. I rushed home to try to catch the end, checked the score…wtf happened?

That is as disappointing of a performance as I can remember. I don’t care if brown has their best team they’ve ever had and we have one of our worst, there is no way to excuse losing to Brown. I would have considered a ho-hum uninspiring 10 point win tonight a disappointment. I don’t even know what ...

Unfortunately Steve, the first NET ranking pretty much solidifies were teams stand. Don't get me wrong, I hate the NET. But if Yale gets a 200+ NET tomorrow, they are not getting any better in the Ivy League. So if the first NET pretty solidifies where teams stand, will McNeese St be higher/around ...

I expect us to win this one. Nice to be back in a place where we can legitimately “expect” to beat anyone. My hope for this game is that we approach it with the same intensity as we opened the Providence game with, and take out some of our frustration on the Bears and really take it to them. Then tr...

All (or at least most) of the inconsistencies people are noting about the NET will be smoothed out over the course of the next 3-4 months. It mostly comes out in the wash. Interesting thing to look at, I guess, but no real value to it at this point. Most of the season is ahead of us, and for us cert...

Rhody_NYCT...welcome to the world of hyperintense posters, where every game, every shot in every game, and every substitution is a referendum on each player, each official and the head coach.

I am not responding to one of you in particular but sadly to a lot of you. Maybe it's me who has lost my mind. But this is what I see. We are only 8 games into a season with basically a completely new roster. Last season was one of the worst teams we have ever had. This years team is far better. We...

Someone said last week “just wait til after the PC game” about fans being bizarrely down on this team and I legitimately thought to myself “ha this person doesn’t know what they’re talking about, everyone realizes where our program is at relative to Providence’s right now. Our fans are reasonable en...

At this point you and Stevey have just taken the position of "defend Fuchs at all costs" He's made SOME plays, but half of the time it's a disaster. The other three bigs don't have near the amount of lows. I haven’t exactly been effusive in my praise of Fuchs. I don’t think you can actual...

Idk I’m not all that upset with this loss. I thought we showed fight for most of the game. I thought it had the potential to be worse. I think this team is headed in the right direction. I think we have a good chance to make noise in the A-10. I agree. Losing by 15 is losing by 15. But. I do think ...

Did I just watch Fuchs pull a rebound away from weston and lead to a TO? At this point I think you’re just seeing what you want to see. He was fighting on the boards, which we want. It’s not like Weston was standing there with the ball and he came and tried to take it from him. At this point you an...

That Carter missed 3 and rebound by Weston was only the second empty trip for Providence since 10:29. Granted a lot of that was at the free throw line on some pretty generous whistles, but you just can’t have that kind of defensive stretch on the road against a good team and stay in the game.

They have been better without Oduro on the floor somehow.

I think the issue is in the arena. Still the FS1 producers need to figure out how to get something on the screen.

Technical difficulties wtf

reef wrote: ↑4 months ago Yeah I’m not as down as BlueMan about Fuchs but I’m ok with him being the 3rd or 4th big giving us 10-15 minutes

Yes

Live line has moved a little. PC -11.5.

Not enough movement to consider a hedge. Almost more tempting to double down.

One possession game at half? I’d take that all day. Did a lot of good things, left some stuff on the table. We did not come out scared or intimidated. I like that. Have to stay mentally tough in second half and hope some stuff breaks our way.

Fuchs is not a very good rebounder but he is not a bad post defender and he is a decent finisher. Honestly I think it’s weird that he’s become the default whipping boy.

Obliged

Officiating is typical dogshit. I wouldn’t expect many whistles to go our way. It is what it is. Im not on the blame Fuchs for everything bandwagon. I doubt he will be a starter as Bilau and Foumena get up to speed. But I think for a freshman big, it is overstated here how “bad” he is. He can be ove...

This Devon Carter thing is one of the ugliest human beings I’ve ever seen. I seriously hate looking at him. Troll looking ass kid.

Why does PC always have the ugliest and weirdest looking players?
