Re: A-10 Board: URI predicted to go 8-21
I can go on record having seen him play a couple times at URI...Munford is a player. Until he's declared eligible by the NCAA, I just assume Ifeanyi Onyekaba isn't playing for us this year. That is what a lot of people around the team called Orion. I was thinking the same. I'm going with If or Big If

I don't see Hurley as a Martelli, content being a big fish in a small pond.

For the right coach, it doesn't take long to rebuild a team to be among the top 20% in D1. Recruit 3 very talented players and you are 90% there. That is why "da process" is a joke. The entire team turns over in 5 years. I believe that we will be competitive in 2 years and get to the NIT....

The team improved from last year. I get we're young, but Hurley will probably win a handful of games by himself and coaching, nevermind how prepped his team is.

Judging from this prediction and the team's lack of depth, I would think making it to Barclay's would be a real achievement. I agree, but if IF gets eligible, I don't think we have depth problems. I'm a firm believer that fitness, defense, and coaching can steal wins for you. We certainly don't hav...

Low expectations? I'll take it. Sounds like 90% of the time when they underrate URI and then we prove them wrong.
