Re: Game #3: Ohio State - In-Game

So, the biggest thing for me was the difference in the way the refs treated the coaches. Hurley got an immediate warning for being outside the coach's box, but Thad walks onto the court having to be restrained by his assistant coaches and nothing. Then Dan says 'That was a foul.' and gets a tech. Wh...

Re: Game #2: Virginia Tech - In-Game

Free throw shooting poor again. 3-Point defense again poor because Powell is being beat off the dribble and the wings collapse to the ball. URI players seem to avoid contact when driving to the lane instead of drawing body contact, resulting in a lot of their shots being blocked as they are not vert...

Re: Game #1: Norfolk State - In-Game

Poor free throw shooting- hurts more when 3 or 4 were front end of one and ones. I thought that was one aspect that Rhody would be honed in on since they need every point they can get. Defense was intense, but Powell seemed to be beat off the dribble a lot causing post players in commit resulting in...

Re: Betting on URI this year

O'Sheas is being replaced with a parking lot and a Ferris Wheel. A sad time indeed. R.I.P. O'Sheas... I'll miss the beer pong table and the damp carpet it's played on. No amount of rinse water could help...

Re: Betting on URI this year

Best time to bet on college hoops is March Madness. The 5/12 games are a great bet most times as the 5 seed is normally a 6 to 11 point favorite and every year it seems like two five seeds fall. Although, the beginning of the year is also a good time to bet if you know a mid-major is underrated and ...

Re: Keith Cothran

I was never a huge fan of Cothran as a player, he was really maddening to watch because he had the potential to play like he did against UNC every night. He played out of control and didn't make smart decisions in about half the games he played. He would play really well one or two games, you think ...

Re: Game #1: Norfolk State - PreGame

BTW, this is only going to be the second time I've ever seen a game at the Ryan Center (1st was that USC game on opening night as well, my brother had to remind me that we actually went because I hardly remember any of it except the last shot by Hellenga, I must have been shitfaced or something, lo...

Re: Game #1: Norfolk State - PreGame

No martial arts background, just a fan of Johnny Lawrence from the Karate Kid. The true champ. With a bench that literally goes 9 deep, unless they have walk-ons, they would play man-to-man defense even if multiple players are in serious foul trouble? I'm not saying it's not in their philosophy, but...

Re: Game #1: Norfolk State - PreGame

My wife and I will be in attendance. Curious to see the starting five, the various rotations and their defensive mindset. With a limited bench, I can't see this team being too aggresive on the defensive end. I dobut there will be too many players pressing from 27ft out. Will they play more zone to k...
