Harvard would be a perfect home and home opponent, hopefully we are working to get that done. Minimal travel cost, top level opponent who is recruiting at an all time high for their program, it's a win-win.

CT Rhody

Anybody know if any other head coaches are hawking this kid like Hurley is? Under the assumption this is our #1 target as and Dan went to all of his AAU games this past week?

CT Rhody

Any word on who the 5 other potential games are?

CT Rhody

What does the top category get them vs the second tier which I'm guessing their in now?

CT Rhody

I love all the discussion. I'm in the camp of no sell out unless it's a big name brand school. Early season games don't normally draw as well as late season games being one of the reasons I say that. Also, in my opinion and only my opinion, it's going to take an NCAA berth to really change some is t...

CT Rhody

I agree with the sentiment from Rod and others but today's game is all about hype and marketing for the program. Any buzz is good buzz which will help Dan recruit this summer.

CT Rhody

URI at 21..

CT Rhody

If anybody wants a good laugh go on the PC boards and read the thread about Cooley to Pitt rumors. Three short NCAA runs and apparently a fantasy forgets who they are. This is why CBS I believe it was wrote the article about coaches moving on after recent success, fan bases just become to removed fr...

CT Rhody

I'm tempted to say any power 5 conference that would offer us a home and home we obviously have to strongly consider. I think if Uconn wanted to give us a away and a nuetral like Mohegan, if URI was allowed to control all the tickets for the game at Mohegan then we should take it.

CT Rhody

Does anybody know who the 3 out of last four games that are semi locked up are against?

CT Rhody

Land some top tier mid's and low quality BCS teams. Def need to get creative.

CT Rhody

Let's get back to this schedule, we need to beef it home and get some quality home OOC games next year.

CT Rhody

The Ryan center is at their disposal whenever they want it. Players have keys to get into the Ryan center to shoot around whenever they want or at least they used to. No need for a practice facility unless I'm missing something. Coaching pool increase and charter flights sound right as the major enh...

Does anybody know what Hurley is saying to the players in private? Feel free to pm me if you know.

CT Rhody

Interesting reading the Rutgers board, seems like 50% of the fans don't even want him, they want the GW coach. Dan 100% of our fans want you so there's that! Rutgers reached out in sat to get permission to speak with Dan. Two days into negotiations now. Should know more early this week I would assum...

TVs are due for the Iona game.

ATP - Is that really being worked out and what kind of timeline are we looking at for that to be approved?

CT Rhody

I wonder what kind of revenue they generate from the two pubs, I have to think it isn't substantial after cost but something is better then nothing. When you can bring the beer back to your seat is when you'll see substantial revenue increase for beer sales.

CT Rhody

It's a big step forward for the program. Allows us out of towners a spot to meet people an hour before the game and mingle. I'm sure during the game and halftime it's packed but I've only been an hour before to game time. I'm sure it will improve and rules will be reduced one slow step at a time whi...

PC fans still talking about the URI fans on their board. Looks like they haven't moved on either ever after a win..

CT Rhody

I don't see Berry ever getting minutes if he can't get minutes this year. So if he leaves after the year, we could get a transfer mid year with the open slot that we have this year and then use Berry slot next year.

CT Rhody

A-10 RPI updated on realtimerpi.com is now #1 in the country, granted its early but hopefully we can keep this going..

CT Rhody

I have stepped away from the message board after that game since it was a poor performance tied with a great shooting game you Maryland which equated to a blow out. I wouldn't take much seriously on this board after a big blow out like that, people use this board for venting some times which is fine...

CT Rhody

What was going on with that end of that handshake line??

CT Rhody

People have to remember that it takes some time to change perception of a program especially for the younger audenience. Make the tourney this year and you'll see a significant increase in attendance next year if the returning team has another shot to make the tourney. Going to games needs to become...

Is Jarvis playing?

Positive?

4. EC 15.4
5. 6,227

CT Rhody

Driving down from CT for this one, this game might just set the tone for the year. Amazing how crucial such an earlier game can be. Will the Rhody bar be open an hour before the game like it usually is for this one?

CT Rhody

Obes, the attendance was pathetic!!!! By all not just the students. Wish I could have gone, but like ATP and Truepoint, I have a 3 month old as well. That on top of living in CT will limit the number of games we attend, if any. We even planned on going to Cancun as my wife always wanted to go to Ca...

Is this game Friday night on TV?

Anybody??? Not that it matters much but still curious..

Finally, a top ten mid-major list with ONLY mid-majors being elgible to make the list. Imagine that!

There is still plenty of time but students will have to show for Valpo game since Tuesday at 10am isn't ideal for the working folk. I however am taking off the day and driving two hours to watch that game! If we can wrangle 3k students for that game the place will be alive. The school should really ...

Bill Koch seems to think that they get less then a 1,000 so we need somebody with some facts to post!

CT Rhody

bigappleram wrote:no that 2K number is wrong

So what is the correct number?

CT Rhody

I heard we have just under 2k season ticket base. Which is half of the 4k number being bantered around here. Does anybody have any firm numbers to prove my source wrong? I would of guess 3k before I heard it was much lower.

CT Rhody

This is the year you bring your friends, family, neighbors, etc to every game possible. No excuses this year, everybody has to do their part..

CT Rhody

I love the fact that they address that question during recruiting visits. Let the press banter about Hurley to some big time job and while URI gets the free press he is telling recruits he isn't going anywhere while turning URI into the next big job!

CT Rhody

It's a good thing we landed the Iona game as Nebraska, Holy Cross, American, Cleveland state among others seem to be lower then you would normally expect.

CT Rhody

Providence college ticket update: I recieved information today that the game has roughly 6,750 tickets already accounted for between season ticket holders, student tickets, PC's allotment, and mini plan sales to date. The Ryan Center box office fully expects the game to sell out before single game ...

The best part is GW fans on their fan forum wondering why PC fans think so highly of themselves lol. Reminds me of what we think of PC fans, go figure.

CT Rhody

So PC gets out recruited by GW.... Waiting for friar spin on that one. Nice! Like this?

Can we not post those mid-major rankings on here. Of course a HM program and conf should be at the top of such a list. Next... Or, how about everyone posts whatever he or she wants and you can choose what to read, or not? My point in posting that is, besides the A10 teams on the list, Valpo, Iona, ...

People need to remember how much more flexibility the mini plans this year offer too, K-Mac even noted in the journal what a great deal it is for a HM product.
