The team has mailed it in already. Based on the attendance last night, so has the fan base. Ya, if the team has given up, why should we give a shit? Most of these kids don't deserve to step on the same floor as some of our all-time greats who bled Rhody Blue. Last year we just sucked. This year, we...

URI now owns the worst NET ranking in the A10. What a season.

Just wondering if I should give directly to my best player, or to a collective where I have no idea where it goes?

I’m on the fence with Luis K , I like him but if the staff wants to move on them I’m ok with that as well As a bigger body guard who is capable of going down low, is a plus offensive player, and can at least handle the ball? I'd like him to stay. I'm figuring House is on the way out, and you'll nee...

The home slate at the Ryan Center is now concluded with the last game versus George Mason drawing the smallest crowd (3,139) of the entire season. URI drew a total of 72,024 to seventeen games for an average of 4,237. This average was an 18% decline from the prior season as the program drew 82,531 ...

Hah. I gave my tix to my brother for the SLU game and he took his son to the game. He said the coach looked like Napoleon without the vigor.

It’s been one heckuva run but it’s time.

Tell them to record you for the Minute of Mayhem then play it during that going forward. That should be used forever as long as the sponsor exists. It can't be done better.

The GodFather will be behind the Rhody bench after the game if anyone wants a copy. I would suggest you get a copy if you can. Should be a great read.

Blueman, I'm giving Archie 4 years. These last two have sucked, but even if next year sucks I'm not getting on him. Year 4 is the year.

theblueram

First, I take issue with those who think I want Archie fired after this season Not yet. My biggest issue is the very poor attitude displayed by several of our players Not just the lack of talent. I also did not expect us to contend for an NIT or NCAA berth this season. However I did expect at least...

theblueram

You all should be feeling much much better about your chances against Mason on Wednesday - tea leaves are saying Hall has basically quit since he got his last NIL payment and is now turning his attention to his next NIL deal. He is not expected to ever play for Mason again. I’m all for NIL, but thi...

After this year? They got IOU's.

theblueram

After our 3 game win streak to start A10 conference play, we have gone 2-11. We have won 2 games since January 13. It's March 4 and I expect us to lose on Wednesday. We do have a problem and Archie needs to fix it pronto for next year.

Martin just became the highest paid coach in the MAC by more than $1M a year. Croce makes $650k a year. Lol.

Imagine not being intelligent enough to actually read my post and realize what was said. But since your light is flick...

If URI had every single player available for every game what do you think our record be? And you got Green unexpectedly because of a US Court Ruling which was a bonus. Likely we will finish 11-20 with a 1st round loss based on listening to most all on the board now. So if PRT there were no injuries...

theblueram

So I hope next year we don't have to integrate 11 new players with almost zero returning production and have your starters and rotational players miss 51 games between them. Where we don't have to use TEN different starting lineups into February. That would be a nice start! Just saying. If URI had ...

The suck factor is strong this year. Maybe these Indiana and Louisville coaches forgot what the A10 brings??? Cause they recruited chumps at this point.

No. Isn't it all rocky below? Not that I would have anyway. :lol: Yes it is but growing up people jumped all the time. Very dangerous though.

Oh, and regarding the mansions, they are spectacular. But my favorite one is one of the more modest ones called Rough Point. That was owned by Doris Duke. Her life is quite the story.

Pretty good media availability session with Archie today. Lots of interesting talk about recruiting, how much the offense has improved, and how much work the defense needs. I found it really interesting. The guy clearly knows what the team needs. I still trust in him to get it done. https://www.you...

How about a court storm for excessively losing? Like a protest storm? Has that ever happened?

theblueram

If it were my team, I would have preferred not to court storm. Creighton is a Top 15 team, spread was close, game was a blowout, and Creighton sees itself as a Final Four contender. To me that upends the ranking of the opponent. Now do I think it's egregious? No. I may not agree with it but I get w...

No doubt about it ...I don't care if you're #2....beat #1....get out on that floor! I heard it’s the first time ever Creighton has beaten the #1 ranked team in the country. If that doesn’t justify a good ol’ court storming don’t know what does. But for me never saw a court storming I didn’t like. T...

What I never understood about the collective, is if you like a player, wouldn't it be better to just pay them $50 a month directly? So you give to a collective and they decide? Seems backwards. Why give money to a group when you can pay the player you like directly?

In 25 years, URI has been to 2 NCAAT's. It's fucking brutal being a fan of this team.
