20 for Andre.

Billyboy78

Duquesne was down 16, now only 2.

Billyboy78

Getting short on guards, Stan in locker room, Jarvis with 4 fouls.

Billyboy78

BTW, Stan having his usual game...10 points, 6 rebounds, 5 steals, 2 blocked shots.

Billyboy78

Crap. Stan hurt.

Billyboy78

BTW, Richmond is killing Duquesne.

Billyboy78

According to the live stats, Jarvis has 3 fouls.

We have a winner! Greatest player in URI history.

And he's strong. He might not be ripped like Jared, but he's a big, strong kid.

Billyboy78

I would like to play PC in the national championship game.

Billyboy78

Jared needs 21 points to pass Jiggy Williamson for 15th place all time. EC needs 39 points to pass Kenny Green for 9th place all time. Both are joining the elite names in URI basketball history.

Billyboy78

I guess we're so great now that playing a top 10 team isn't a big deal anymore.

Billyboy78

If you put out information that was told to you in confidence, you lose your source. Pretty simple.

Billyboy78

He definitely is thin, but talented. He's ranked 70 something I believe in the '19 class.

Billyboy78

Fordham is the last A10 team to defeat URI - the 53-43 stinker last Feb 15th at the Ryan Center and the game that likely kicked their collective arses into another gear. Since then they've had a 9 and a 10 game winning streak, winning 23 of the next 27. Let's keep that going! Edit - 24 of next 28. ...

Billyboy78

The casual fan can be impacted by the opponent. Dayton, VCU & Davidson are going to draw more fans than Richmond and Fordham. I'm not sure the casual fans know the difference. I have a lot of casual fans in my section. When EZ yells "Rhody, Rhody, Rhody", their response is "Rhody...

Billyboy78

Of those 300 seats, about half of them are the obstructed view seats.

Billyboy78

Looks like about 300 tickets left for Duquesne. That doesn't include the 1500 student seats, but I'm pretty sure they will all be full.

Billyboy78

Dude these holier than thou, 3 paragraph soap box tirades where you position yourself as the Godfather of URI fandom is getting tired. Speaking for myself, I watch dozens of hoops games a week and am very well reasoned and informed with the state of the program so I don't need a lecture on perspect...

Billyboy78

Once again, I really don't get the conspiracy theory here. KMac certainly wasn't alone in his no-vote for URI, as 2/3 of the writers in the field passed on us as well. While flawed in some areas, his logic isn't that far off. The A10 is a dumpster fire this year. Ranked behind the Mountain West AND...

Billyboy78

Ok, I'm not bitching. It's just an "is what it is" post. URI and PC both played big games yesterday. Equal coverage possibly? Maybe side by side articles? No. PC gets a big headline with a big picture on the front page of the sports page. We get a smaller headline, no picture, at the botto...

Billyboy78

My understanding was that he wouldn’t qualify this year for academic reasons. Possibly reclassify. Yes. I pretty sure I remember hearing the same thing. So there's still a good chance he could end up with us as a 2019 recruit. A multi-skilled, 6-7 wing guard in this era of positionless basketball i...

Billyboy78

So, even if we win out, go 18-0, 29-3 , have a 24 game winning streak and are ranked around 10th (no, I am not saying all those things are going to happen), the best we can do is a 5 or 6 seed? That really sucks.

Billyboy78

Can we dream of a 4 seed? Imagine being the favorite in both of our first 2 games? That's how important every game is. If we get a couple of losses, that's not happening, dropping to a 6,7 or 8. We are favored in every game the rest of the regular season. Yes, it will be difficult to go 18-0, but no...

Billyboy78

was anyone able to watch the PC game? it was on CBSSN right after URI, but from where I am, the network seemed to be having a problem. I saw only the first 3 minutes of the game then it cut out. Missed the rest. Not sure if this was a local or national issue, but if the latter, could you imagine th...

Billyboy78

I would think that the implementation of a dedicated hoops facility at URI seems like a component that might keep a coaching staff around for a while longer, just sayin'... ......also heard in the public part of the presentation, today, among other items was the desire for and partnering with the p...

Jarvis has a much better head on his shoulders than Mike Powell does.

It would probably kill me.

When Dan is introduced after the player intros before games , we need to give him a standing ovation. He deserves it. We need to let him know how the fans feel about him.

Billyboy78

I'm sorry if I turned this into another "Dan might leave" thread. Let's enjoy what we have now.

Billyboy78

On Jarvis: “He’s been the key,” Hurley said. “If he would have gone sour coming off the bench and been frustrated, that would have had a negative effect on the team. Instead, he’s a weapon.” What a great comment by Danny so very true. These guys are the essence of a "team". Very unselfish...

Billyboy78

There has to be a way to keep Dan here for 10 more years. We should all become Uconn fans the rest of the season. This off-season could be dicey as we transition between this year's team and the recruits coming in. Once those guys are on campus it will be tougher for him to move on What Dan wants m...

And EC also had a very good shot at being the all time leading scorer. It still looks like he'll end up at #2 or #3.

Wow, Ramster. I have to say that I am very impressed with your posts. I honestly think you should write a book about URI hoops.

Billyboy78

See, it's guys like Pete I'm talking about. He starts coming here. He becomes even more interested in the program. He goes to his first game at the RC this year. He buys tickets to some more games this year. That's what this forum can do, help build the program. Just think what adding a few hundred ...

Billyboy78

Jared is also climbing the steals chart. He needs 2 steals today to pass Dawan Robinson for 7th place all time.

Billyboy78

EC needs 10 points today to pass Will Daniels for 10th place all time. Jared needs 4 points today to pass Andre Samuel for 16th place all time.

Billyboy78

Yes, and I miss Bressler and his strange and occasionally outrageous wit. And Rod, of course.

Has to be Andre.

Billyboy78

I would definitely donate as well. The keaneyblue forum has almost become an addiction. I do not post often but read just about everything. Little free time at work calls for a nice check of the forum hahah. I think this forum helps drive the interest and passion out of the fans just by simply talk...

It's a horseracing term. It's short (pun intended) for Professional Jockey.
