If that disconnect exists between the team and the rest of the campus, and probably the campus life, then changing that culture is also needed, and the Athletic Dept must come up with a strategy to address that; if there gonna get serious about creating a real home court advantage. How do other hoop...

Question, what, if anything, is done on campus to promote the games. Campus radio, Cigar features??

I wanna see the contiuned growth of the way Coach Hurley plays against the alleged tougher opponent. I wanna see the team exhibit the same defensive mindset to not back down in the face of the usual ugly Dunk crowd for these games. I wanna see a statement game, that going forward with the Hurley For...

They did everything right down the stretch, when it got under 10 points, we seemed to get the possession/rebound we needed and hit some of the free throws. Before game, it was mentioned by an assistant coach; to look for URI to force the action and tempo.....they did, and as usual they do it from th...

Moving on. What's the scouting report on these guys?

section(105)

OK, here goes, Would I pissed if in the re-seating of the RC, I lost and simply could not get two season tickets in 105?? YES. Would I recover knowing these sections were going (except 106)to students AND these sections would be full and creating a meaningful home court advantage going forward?? YES...

A representative, and a few MOB members were invited to the Alumni Lounge gathering and spoke saying they have a bit over 200 "signed-up" members and on any given game there are +/= 150. So, it appears they are organized to some degree. A some times visitor in the seat next to me asked me;...

section(105)

Not much to add, these guys work there ass off on each defensive possession. The effort they put forth as a Hurley team is quite impressive, and closing out the game still haunts these guys. Hare is coming along, as Bob Hurley said in the post game, he erases some of the defensive breakdowns, more p...

"Cause we/re fans, and see our program as one that a league would want. Our TV market is??......I would imagine that with the recent uncertainty of our recent past football decisions, others may look upon URI as a less than desirable commodity. Also. I would like to think there's some comprehen...

Dream on.....but then again, maybe the winds of change keep blowing around with the Big East defections etc,...... but the going forward for the A-10 has got to be a focus on building a strong basketball conference with major TV markets. The bigger issue for the A-10 might be how to try to keep some...

section(105)

Out quick'em........would love to see that. Which brings me to a question. Assume we get some defensive boards, do we have the court speed to push the ball for fast break score and does Coach Hurley want that and only when we/ve got the numbers advantage? Fast break points do not seem to be part of ...

Glad we cleared up the who's who regarding the PA announcer and on-the-floor guy. I used to directly appeal to him to give "stuff"(pizza) to the section 105 folks, whom get lost behind radio, score board ops, stat people, timers, video ops etc. etc. Once he delivered!! i think he does an O...

would like to see Chris get more time on our radio broadcasts, I guess Don is a fixture, but when there's time to look to others, I hope Chris gets consideration...........

section(105)

With the current team that has major offensive challenges, and relies on its defense to compete and fight for wins, we/ll probably experience posters continuing(as it should be)to offer their view of plays and players in equal distribution of critical observations.

section(105)

Even with the one win(for now)I still think someone in the bottom 1/4 group is going to win; hope I am wrong, but thus far from what I/ve seen and digested not many wins out there...............

section(105)

This one was the first Coach Hurley URI win; and feel good win for this group of players faced with much chance for heads down; yet, they still dig in make the plays when needed against a less than NCAA team to grab a win. This I would suggest this is one of those few we/ll get as a W, especially on...

section(105)

Yes to the standing O come Wednesday; maybe those folks that sit during most happenings in the RC will acknowledge this; nice stats on points made on their TO/s; still going forward gonna be a rough road, but now I think we/ll get some major MO and go on a litle run..........

section(105)

Thx for the link to the game, great win and finally "validates" the course of action by the coaches for this program. Even if/when I see other teams trying to take away X from those points, I think he can get-some but now there's others to help. Not exactly a NCAA level team we played, but...

Once upon a time, in the not so distant past, the person occupaying the seat next to me("at the time she didn't know whether the ball was stuffed with air or feathers") used to complain about "why he took so long to start things.........") I used to tell her, you/re gonna miss hi...

I think we should hold off on the Hurley group being outcoached stuff; this group as is and what we/ve seen is going to continue to struggle getting wins; the "A" game needed to do that has so many variables that all of them coming together on the same nite is not going to happen often eno...

The late game inbounds poor plays which resulted in turnovers killed us, mix in some poor freethrow %, sprinkle in the failure to get rebounds on missed Loyola freethrows and we end up again on the short end. Difficult to watch this team give so much effort and come up short. Hare, besides what has ...

I have no beef with not using the TO. I think SH coach knew and would have been able to defend Mumford as the desired URI go-to-guy in his huddle. I would rather inbound the ball and expect the SH defense would not be in optimal positions. Muchly agree with ramfan85. As for drawing up a play, at thi...

If months ago, we said we would be 0-4, and the players and coaches would have demonstrated a complete break from the past 2-3 years, I would have signed up for that. Creep before walk.

TJ, we gots players who dig in and play hard defense, he/s one of those. However, in a group of limited offense weapons, another one(TJ) is just another player with no/limited O. that hurts. X is an offensive force, my concern, and it happened to nite, teams will doulble up on him when he gets the p...

maybe they should consider moving it around New England, with a "host" home team to draw; Hartford/Mohegan with UConn, Springfield/Worcester with UMassHoly Cross, Boston Garden with BC, dare I saw the Dunk with URI/PC, or think big with the Ryan Center.............Would Dave Gavett agree??

section(105)

and may I add that we saw a bit of 2-3 active zone tonite, eventhou the man2man is the prime defense, the change of looks I think will help, maybe keep Hare out of foul trouble and get him some boards............and isn't it nice to be able to watch, enjoy and speak about hoops again??

Just back in Narragansett, take aways were; Hare showed some flashes of what can be, on a second 1/2(maybe another one)sequence on a Powell dribble drive, Hare rolled to strong side, opened up to receive ball, Powell made pass and off Hare's hands for TO. However, the sequence shows me he/s been coa...
