The best way is to go through her. She'll respond quickly. She'd love to hear from members.

I know he has clothing (of course) as well as old programs, record books and other stuff like that. Of course, she can be more specific.
As we all know, he took URI Basketball very seriously.
It would be nice to keep this stuff "in-house,"so to speak.

I've heard from Rod's daughter, Andrea Vita. She is cleaning out Rod's possessions. She would like to know if anyone on our board would be interested in having some of his URI things. He also had several hobbies. One was building model ships. He was very talented. Andrea wants to give some of these ...

I love Roland. However, if we ever hired him, we'd need to hire extra security to keep him on the bench if trouble or controversial calls are made....Not that there's anything wrong with that....

By the way, who was the current recruit that Cox wasn't involved with?

ramfan85

I wonder if ace has started on the UConn board yet.

ramfan85

Just saying Al left for money is only half of the story. He actually wanted stay. Dumbo dragged his feet on ANY offer. BC came up and Al left.
I guess the AD figured that any coach who would work out of a trailer wouldn't cause any problems. He was wrong, as usual.

ramfan85

If anyone "really enjoyed" worrying if the coach will stay or leave every spring, Pitino would be a great hire. He'd be looking to move on quicker than Harrick did. Plus, there woudn't be a waitress in the State that would feel safe. Knowing nothing, I think I'm a Cox man. He could turn ou...

I guess this explains why he "didn't give a crap about another job opening.....He already had his lined up.

Rod started to come around after some incidents with the staff and having Andrea unfriended him on social media.

So, I wake up to this news, the stock market crashes (I wonder if it's related) and now I'm waiting for
K State to lose tonight to end a totally horrible day.

PS to jcru
Hope you don't leave this board. Different opinions is what makes this board great.

Ace said that UConn is the job that has fascinated Dan. That is the job he has wanted. If UConn would have been open last year or two years ago, he would have left then. After he and Calhoun discussed the job, his mind was already made up. Get Ollie and out and it's Dan's job. 2 million a year to s...

I agree with all these posts. It was a great year. I really didn't think, back in September, that we would be as good as we were. Another thing that really hasn't been addressed is the perception of our team this year. I've been here for a long time. I've never seen the amount of coverage or the res...

Wtf Clear the bench.

ramfan85

Just got insulted by the announcer. Said that after today, Duke will be playing better teams, in so many words.

ramfan85

I never thought we could win this. Just didn't want to see a blowout. So much for that.

Coach K in this game so far is looking terribly grumpy

He's an a-hole.

Me too. I usually root for any P5 team that will play us in the regular season.

ramfan85

I listened to most of the pc game in the car. At one point, Joey said one of the officials has worked their games all season and only called fouls on them.
No way I wanted them having a chance to go further than us.

ramfan85

Those refs were atrocious! And that tech they called on Kenny Green? His crime was getting up after being pushed to the ground by Leitner! If anything there should have been a foul on Leitner! I'm not sure how those refs slept that night. I actually used to like Duke until that game. Wasn't that Da...

And then there was one.....Us.

More like the fifth time.

ramfan85

The real winner is the guy I'm about to work out with later today. Now, I don't even want to break anything. Go Rhody!

It's going to be tough for the tournament to beat this game.

ramfan85

It wasn't the last shot, but, I'm giving EC credit for the game winner. After what he's been through, he deserves it.
Never thought we'd win after that ending.

Who do we want next, Duke or Iona? Lol

Fatts has to stay in. He's in a zone.

ramfan85

Any chance we play both bigs (so to speak) at the same time? Neither of them look good alone.

ramfan85

I address this. The facts are, UCONN is not the job it was in the old Big East. The AAC is not a league that will produce any more Final 4 teams than the A10. The A10 have had our share of top 5 ranked teams in the past, the two leagues are very comparable. The main issue is how the Kevin Ollie sit...

I agree. It was like watching a Japanese Godzilla movie.

Can't we ever get away from Duke?
I guess they had OU penciled in back in October. What a joke. As much as they tried, they couldn't play their way out.

ramfan85

It seems the Rhode Island Rams never seem to really believe they are worthy of winning when it counts. They need to learn how to meditate and visualize their foul shots going in easily and effortlessly not to mention winning games easily and effortlessly --instead of playing not to lose. This goes ...

ramfan85

I really don't think we'll be "punished" for this loss. Think we'll be a 7.

ramfan85

Sometimes you just come up short. Couldn't be more proud of this team's effort.
Also, a great game for the league on national tv.

Bright side...3 A10 teams in the tourney. Who would have thought that a month ago?

Exactly right.

ramfan85

So, JT is having the worst game of his career, sits and still is the first off the bench to congratulate his teammates at the time out. That's a LEADER.

ramfan85

Don't want to lose this one (or any) because of FT's

ramfan85

Did I just hear the guy on the halftime show call EC the smallest man on the floor?

ramfan85

I'm lovin' this game. Both teams giving it everything they have.

ramfan85

It feels good being "America's Team," even if it's just for a day.
So many teams outside of the league are rooting for us.

Davidson leads at the break, 37-31, on the strength of some hot shooting and the Bonnies are controlling the boards which is why their deficit is not bigger given the Wildcats hot shooting. Both teams are protecting the ball well. This one will go down to the wire. Hope it goes into 10 overtimes. I...

Did anybody else see Dan truly appreciate the crowd in DC? During the post game interview Saw it when they got him coming off the court...if someone could/would post the postgame presser, that would be great I will tell you that he closed the pressed by wishing "the other great RI program"...
