Re: 2017-18 Bracketology

Only way that game wouldn't end in a fistfight would be if Dan and Bobby got ejected 15 seconds into the first half.

Re: 2017-18 Bracketology

Would be awesome to get down to a 6 or 7 seed. The 8 or 9s kind of get fucked over because they have to play a 1 seed for their second game. Honestly would much rather be a 10 or 11 than an 8.

Re: 12/27 | Florida Gulf Coast Eagles | 7PM (ESPNU)

I'm sure another poster has touched on this at some point, but I think that EC missing time with his injury is a blessing rather than a curse. I think that the main negatives - damage to EC's potential draft stock & a loss to Bama - are offset by the benefits. The team learned how to function wi...

We should be happy for St Bona getting love and root for them throughout conference play! Gives us another 2 (maybe 3) games against a fringe top 35 team.

These guys kept the game within 10 pts at Syracuse and St John's. I'm not worried about getting the win but I don't think they're a gimmick team its literally what they are, same idea as Navy in football having 1-2 passes per game. All Iona does is run down and jack up the 1st 3 they can get, and o...

Re: 12/16 | Charleston Cougars | 4:00PM

I take all blame for calling them a cupcake! I would've been the one to blame if we lost today. Charleston getting beaten by RPI 223 Cal Poly seems like a definite fluke now. Moving forward, we need Cyril in the starting lineup!! 50% from the field, 70% from the line, with a double-double in only 25...

Re: 12/16 | Charleston Cougars | 4:00PM

someone referred to Charleston as a “cupcake,” which is not at all accurate. The long lay-off might lead to a rough start, but a solid, pull away win would be ideal. What do you mean? They lost to Cal Poly at home (RPI 220), and their best win is vs an RPI 194 school (Western Carolina) ... Definite...

Re: Week #5 - Games of Interest

We seem to think we are going to just breeze thru these next three games and go 8-3 non-conference. We have significant injury issues, and our bigs are struggling. Discussing at-large bid possibilities at this juncture seems to be more than a little bit premature. Disagree. I'd bet my house (dorm r...

Re: 12/6 | Alabama Crimson Tide | 8:00PM

I'm a supporter of having Jarvis start over Jeff. This isn't a knock on Jeff's ability - he's a great player - but he's been struggling recently as opposed to Jarvis who has been red hot. Plus Jarvis is a senior who has worked very hard over his career here and definitely deserves it.

Re: 12/6 | Alabama Crimson Tide | 8:00PM

So, supposedly EC is back for the next game. Which guard sits? I think Jarvis has to start and Jeff has to sit. Anybody agree? Agreed. Jarvis has been on fire and Jeff has been struggling. Seems like a no-brainer. Although it's not hard to picture Dan playing EC with limited minutes (20 or less) fo...

Re: Week #4 - Games of Interest

The Bama loss sucks...but we don’t need a “ranked” win right now. Meaning we’re not a desperate fan base looking for a win over a team with a number next to their name. Win or lose Wednesday, Bama will be a top 50 road game on paper in March. That’s what we need. Seton Hall winning and Bamas loss m...

Re: 11/23 | #20 Seton Hall Pirates | 6:00PM (ESPNU)

Slightly outdated rankings here (6 days ago) but ESPN was looking to move Seton Hall into the top 10 of their power rankings after the NIT tournament. Can't understate how huge of a win this was for Rhody http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/21470858/power-rankings-big-east-best-co...
