Damn, not a good sign. Even if he can go, likely not close to 100%. We need him.

Pretty much a yearly guarantee!

And Zek just disappeared again. Can't figure that kid out.

UMass has tried very hard to give this one away here. Fuck.

This is surreal. It's like our guys just shut off.

RI_Bred

Wow just an implosion. Where have we seen this before? It's like reverse adjustments at the half for us and UMass has made some nice adjustments.

Fuchs literally just turned his back to the guy with the ball and let him walk in what the hell was that?

Call a freaking timeout! Right? I’m screaming at the tv Archie please call a timeout over and over. He’s such a smart basketball mind it’s odd that he misses blatantly obvious moves sometimes. I like his decision to clog the paint and dare them to shoot.. we just have some horrendous stretches ever...

Kinda sloppy?

4 turnovers, 50% from 3, 100% by the line, up by 8.

Don’t see how that’s sloppy, I think we’ve played a very clean half.

Just some sloppy passing kinda ugly ball for a period there is what I meant. Both sides.

Kinda sloppy but I'll take this start.

No. We played 18 games before Loyola was added to make 15 teams and we still play 18 Conference games. We play 4 teams home and home. The quality of those 4 teams is considered upon where we finish in the standings the prior year. The Top finishing teams play higher level teams the next season twic...

I went to high school with one of the kids playing the actual game in the Hungry Hungry Hippos commercial. About as close I have gotten to stardom.

RI_Bred

Might actually deter people LOL.

RI_Bred

Wasn't able to watch/listen to this one, so glad we finally got a nice road win and very happy for Zek. Makes me wonder if something finally clicked at practice this week, or is GW just that bad? URI can definitely score, so I imagine our D stepped up to some degree. We'll take it!

I’d keep 7ish players - I rather retool with people who show effort on D

CUT DEAD WEIGHT

Honestly right now there is no reason to think otherwise. Until they show us they can.

RI_Bred

They semi-came back. Nova is on a huge skid like lost their last 7 I think. Also beat Kansas early in the season. Crazy.

RI_Bred

Having Yinka Dare / Mike Jarvis flashbacks!

RI_Bred

Ok, call me Charmin...I watched Archie's presser, and have watched most of them...fwiw, I don't think I'd want to play for the guy Saw that. Kinda risky to throw a whole team under the bus. Maybe last years crew that was inherited, but Miller recruited this bunch. Dangerous strategy methinks. If I ...

RI_Bred

The problem is with the DH rebuild, his first two teams played defense like savage dogs but didn't have offense. Year 3, he got the offense and they still played defense like savage dogs which made them winners. With Archie, his teams have the offense but play zero defense. What does it take for Ar...

RI_Bred

Also of note. We had a “Keaney out” with the players wearing perfect jerseys and the crowd decked out in their gear. …however the coaches quarter zips weren’t even Keaney blue. Even Rhody Ram had the throwback actual Keaney blue uni on. My wife commented that it looked like the coaching staff was w...

No balloons today. Would've been overkill with the Rhody Rags I guess!

Packed house. Multiple school and team groups there today. National TV. Get blown out. If you want people to come to games, cannot have a day like today. I said to my wife as we were leaving, we won't see a crowd like this again this year. The players coming out for shoot around before the second h...

I hit the 50/50 at the game today. Greatest game of the year!

At this point I would say 5,000 is a very good crowd for URI. We suck don't forget.

So tempting, must resist...!

Good game so far.

I'm at a dumb sales retreat for work, so I can't go. If anyone wants my two tickets let me know. Nothing like a weekend sales "retreat" - suffered through a couple of those many moons ago. Luckily I'm the entire sales force for our company these days. My retreat will be in my garage this ...

This thread has devolved into a Fellowship of the Miserable. Some Rhody fans seem to hate nearly everything these days. I mean this thread is literally about the issues with the Ryan Center. Though I agree - balloons are probably one of the only good things that student section has done. I couldn't...

I disagree that URI's perimeter D was significantly better last night. LaSalle could not hit open threes. Is this a result of the pack-line D strategy, and not being able to respond to the perimeter quickly enough for fear of not being able to retreat to the pack line position? Post game radio show ...

RI_Bred

If you had Rhody -2.5 ....... you lost! Unreal.

RI_Bred

Anyone notice you can hear Yorke louder than the commentators on ESPN+? We had to bounce to get the kids to bed but I have a legit headache. It was very loud tonight I hate it It was really bad. Like you don't even have 10 seconds to talk to the person next to you. Deafening. And it need not be.

RI_Bred

At the very least they could use the area formerly known as Rhody Pub or whatever it was to have a couple of stand-alone beer coolers for faster service.

RI_Bred

If anyone had half a brain they would approach Narragansett beer and have them fund a REAL PUB (not a blue shower curtain pub) but a real pub named after them - where in exchange they fund the entire project - and transform under thr main scoreboard into a legit pub w rhody hoops themed pub and the...

The whole “pack line takes years to learn” excuse was just something a few people came up with last year in an attempt to defend Archie because we were so bad. It’s now taken on a life of its own and become the boogeyman around here. It’s different, so there is some learning curve if you’ve never d...

Players can't handle the scheme and coach will not adapt. Or can't adapt.

7:56 and call the timeout after a made hoop, next whistle is auto TO. Don't get it at all.
