https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFV5UI5gcEc Here's the deal with this vid, it's origin is a VHS with tracking issues, the first 10 minutes or so of the video is practically unwatchable but Green was the sixth man of course so you don't miss any of his PT. This team was the best Rhody team in my life...

Anyone paying attention knows I can't stand the negativity posted about our own players or recruits, but I agree this is an exercise in free speech, I just think the members that post negative shit at a constant tilt should have to read daily criticisms of themselves posted on public forums and see ...

Running Ram

I guess I'll just do this daily until it sinks in deep... Green suggested he is looking to get into coaching at the cbb level and asked someone he thought might have knowledge or ideas for him to think about it. Any talk of him being hired at URI at this time is all about us fans. No one thinks it w...

wow projo laying off an icon...
Bummer how it seems to be affecting his former co-workers.
Good luck going forward KMac.

Careful DC, the real KG is beloved by many around here, Can maybe we agree it would be a risky hire instead of terrible? also I'll point out again it's members of the board that are speculating about URI, Kenny G is just trying to get the word out that he would like a shot at coaching somewhere in t...

Running Ram

Would he be willing to volunteer? Or maybe be a graduate assistant? Around 1980 Jack Kraft had a grad assistant named Fran Fraschilla. Can you have people work with the players like that? Maybe only at practices and they work like consultants? Does anyone know the particulars about such things vis ...

Running Ram

ramster, you deleted the post that my last post addresses...

Running Ram

No ramster, I missed where Hammond's dad addressed the board about that. That's just silly, it was scrub time, that's when you want the walk-ons in. As a head coach you need guys that work hard to get PT not feel spurned when walk-ons get scrub time. Also, I don't think you're right to accuse most o...

Running Ram

ramster, maybe you can forward your playing time suggestions to the coach from now on, you can be our player retention specialist. So Hammond left because Dadika got a minute and a half of scrub time? And Toppin left because he didn't get 30 minutes per as a freshman? even though he knew he'd be get...

Running Ram

to be clear Kenny Green didn't suggest anything about URI, at least per the original post by RIR, that was all us.

He only said he desires to get into college coaching and is doing what anyone would do by getting that word out.

I logged in just to see the "hidden content" with an eyebrow raised, never knew that was a thing.

it did change from a puce color to a pleasant shade of green, membership has it's privileges.

Running Ram

If the reports are true, too bad Mack has a spotty behavioral history, 6.4 assists per game is a serious number. I'd still say roll the dice and try to be a positive force in his life and hope he's a positive force on the court and with the team in return. Perhaps the reports are exaggerated or perh...

This is a joke right? I hope you guys that jumped down DFF's gullet realize that his gentle response to you only proves that you a little bit over-reacted. Witch hunts are not cool and demanding in all capitol letters that a member be banned without any kind of rational discourse is not cool. That i...

Running Ram

Thank you RhodyKyle.

it's a forum, a message board. DFF is a solid contributor and has always been rational in discussions, so it stands to reason, if one is rational in response, actual discourse can happen without some blind witch-huntery.

Running Ram

First can we agree his depiction of the BB gun incident was incorrect and was very easy to refute in many articles. I believe the other part of his comments are totally out of left field and we will see no sources. I also was annoyed since my son was on the team, and I don't believe people have the...

Running Ram

Like I said before, I am not saying a BB gun incident didn't happen but the description of the incident is obviously not accurate. The following quote is total fabrication "Several players ran a train on another teammates girlfriend. Players were in fights regularly. DUI’s and possession of il...

So glad the Kaulls are recovering!! as many know, they are some of the best people around!

Running Ram

That tweet made my head hurt. What is he saying? The rule is likely to pass. They thought about delaying, so that more athletes could take advantage of it - I'm guessing they mean the fall athletes - but changed their minds. He’s clearly missing a crucial word or two in his tweet though, right? yes...

Players go from mid majors to the pros all the time, its not like any old P5 is a better route to the NBA than every mid major. This next scenario is a bit extreme, but put Obi Toppin on Bryant this past year and he's still going NBA, he might have averaged 32 pts, 14 rbs and 4 ast per game for them...

Any thread that Rod is still in, is a special thread indeed. Rashond is in good company with the Woodwards. I probably still think about Rod at least 3 or 4 times a week just because of the discussions here and the whole "I know what Rod's take would have been" thing that goes through man...

Yup, it's why Rodman Hall is my avatar. That's where it all began.

I'd be willing to bet 8 of 10 library and research scientists in the building have no idea about the history that was made in there.

Good to read the message from DC. It does reassure my opinion that he is an adaptable kind of guy. I think he learns fast, makes adjustments and hopefully we continue to rise.

Treading lightly should be the standard, not because mom is watching, but because we are adults speaking about kids.

Stop using Pitino as a measuring stick against present and future coaches. I hope you aren't referring to me 3000, because there's been one measuring stick in CBB for twenty years and I still can't spell his name, Coach K. Slick is no role model! and I sure don't consider him any kind of measuring ...

Tom Ryan wants to win and I get why, good money after bad isn't the best motivation for future donations/revenues.

I don't see how this lets Cox of the hook here. Because Jacob is transferring to Kentucky all good?

And the tired excuses about budget ...

I think it's both here, and we can probably all agree, Kentucky and Oregon are a cut above Iowa State and Iowa State (sadly) is a cut above us.

Yes, in general, the Dayton fans both here and in person, I've met, have been very respectful and gracious. Great fan base.

Me and PT is what I was counting on, when I knew CL was graduating and figured we might get a frosh big, I figured JH would get the PT. Less balls grabbed by CL, more out there for JH.
