KeaneyBlue - The URI Basketball Forum

From an outside perspective it makes sense. Bill Reynolds doesn't have any more insight than anyone here, and that is typically the way college basketball works. Just take it as a compliment that your coach is highly thought of and enjoy the season.

I love Dan's self-deprecating humor. It's right up my alley... Danny’s NBA dreams died much sooner. “I think it was my first Big East game at Seton Hall,” he said, laughing. “We played Georgetown. The first time I went in the lane, Alonzo Mourning put my shot into the third or fourth tier. Then aga...

I finally had someone not related, sitting next to me yesterday. I think he was a 20 something mannequin. One who stayed on his cell phone, made some comments to his buddies, and never once cheered for the team. With this type of neuvo fan, who needs empty seats? I can out do that one, Rod. We had ...

And one other thing...... Our current "mascot" is a no show. And it reminds me of the epic fail of the last decade. Bring back our MASCOT!!!! I want to see Rhody sliding across center court again and going nuts!!!!! Rhody had a suit on for some reason against SLU....old Rhody would never ...

After having such a lackluster crowd yesterday, it would be nice to have tons of students at the game. The more students the harder we can make it for the Minutemen. You already know us usually students (Myself, Keaney Blue Suit Man, and Flag Boy) will be there keeping the students motivated and lo...

That's a nice way to say, you're benched, not good enough.

Not necessarily. I think deciding you want to get young guys experience once the season is basically wasted is a legit coaching decision. It sucks for McBroom, though.

Looking at the boxscore again, I didn't realize Yacoubou had such a tough game. He averages about 10 points and 25 minutes per game. Yesterday, he was scoreless in 7 minutes with 4 fouls. What did I miss about McBroom? Why did he only play a minute? Coach Murray was saying on the pregame that they ...

The box scores tell the story. Officials are no longer allowing URI to maul opponents. We are no longer holding opponents below 50 or even 60. The blizzard game dragged on for 2.5 hours. Games of 50 or more fouls are common. This is a premeditated action on part of the A10 as a result of complaints...

We let bench sitter, Miles Reynolds, who averages 4.1 ppg. get to the line FIFTEEN times! We let Davell Roby, who averages 6.2 ppg to the line TEN times. They were a combined 23-25!!! This is unacceptable. It means we're fouling guys who aren't even the opponent's main players. Hurley called the la...

Every seat should be filled for this game. C'mon students!!! Tickets to this game cost $5 more than other games. I would assume, and hope, that is because they know the demand will be there. If somehow that grab results in less tickets being sold it would be a disaster. Hope they know what they're ...

I know a lot of you might have thought this thread was dead after Saint Joe's. Not so fast my friend! In Joe Lunardi's Thursday bracket and yesterday's Twitter seed list he still had us as the sixth team out. He had NCState at tenth out, but they moved to first out with their win yesterday. The oth...

Rhody is still 16th in college basketball in defensive scoring at 58.7, but has given up 69 per contest in the three games it has played in the last week. Part of the problem is the foul trouble in those games, which has both a direct and indirect effect on opponent scoring. URI has averaged over 26...

This is blueman's world, we are all just living in it.

(blueman - do you think since this is your world and all, you can get it to stop snowing?)

Billyboy78 wrote:I wonder why Pitt is out?

You never know whose decision it is.

If he's planning on taking more visits hopefully we are still alive and can get one of them. I know I'm biased but if he is considering playing in the A10 he owes it to himself to check us out, considering what we are building and how he could fit into it.

In retrospect maybe we should have known something was up when we saw blueman dressed so preppy. Are keaneyblue dot com members invited to the wedding?

Congrats guys! Definitely the highlight of the day on a pretty damn good day for Rhody overall.

Tough sledding back from the game to Cumberland.. Tough ride back to N Attleborough. Route 95 had not yet been plowed and the lines were not visible. Yeah, took me 1:15 to get down to the game from Boston and close to three hours to get back. Anybody out and about tonight should take extreme cautio...

Blueman is the romantic of the year

Congratulations are in order then!

Did that just happen? People at the game know what I'm talking about.

Ace made the point that the thing that prevents us from stomping on teams is not that we lose focus, but that we just aren't good enough on offense to score enough times in a row to do it. And I see her point. But today is a great example of specifically what we do when we get ahead. We were up by 1...

Dale Arnold is a human boiled cabbage. I'd rather listen to the background noise in my office than listen to him talk about anything.

Loyal to URI? In what lifetime? That's sheer baloney. This clown acts like he was an all pro lineman, instead of a backup on a lousy team, who quit after two years. Just a loud mouthed buffoon. Except that he and Zo have (had) probably the best deep-dive football show in mainstream media in the cou...

I'll be braving the storm and coming down from Boston. Scheduling an extra hour of driving each way.

Damn Gresh and Zo was the best show on Boston radio. I don't know why these stations are always dismantling their good shows. EEI ruined their afternoon drive by breaking up the Big Show and bringing in Holley and later pushing Ordway out altogether. Mark Bertrand is the worst kind of human being. I...

For the record I still think St. Joe's is not a good team and I really wish we would show the ability to step on teams when we have them down, but I am in a much calmer place now about the game than I was last night. I just want it for these guys so bad....tough to contain the rage sometimes.

I would love this. It would speed the game up considerably and would mean more possessions. The game is already 8 minutes shorter than the pro game. Having a longer shot clock means even fewer possessions. I'm neutral as far as what it will mean for our team as currently constituted, but as a fan of...

I think too much focus is being out on the last 5 seconds of the game. That situation is always going to be a fire drill. I think the focus should be on the fact that we never should have been in that situation against that team. I also think it is OK to be disappointed in what we saw last night and...

Not going to help the size of the crowd Saturday either. Just when things start building, they fall back. Well, these are the bumps in the road Dan said we'd have. Maybe it will stop, someday. If the fans will only show up to see an undefeated team then the fans suck. You can't not go to a game bec...

TP i can understand your frustration. It just felt like every time I saw Belichick's face it was a negative comment. There's no way we're going to win out until the tourny...but like other's have said, I think we have a better chance of winning the A10 tournament than getting an at-large. I think a...

TP, what team have you been watching all year? We don't play that way...why would you expect it now? We play to the level of our competition, atleast since december that's how it's been. Every comment you had on this entire thread was negative. I expect bad plays...we play with almost all freshman ...

I said it before. I have more faith in this team winning the A10 Champioship than an at large. At large is off the table. Gotta get the top 4 spot. That is the focus. The at-large talk was always premature, but this isn't about that. Whether we won or lost the game at the end, you can't keep lettin...

Isn't that always a kick ball? I've literally watched the last inbounds play 5 times now and it's killing me. He kicked the ball on purpose to prevent he ball from going in bounds. WTF is that? Every other time that happens it's a whistle and they get to throw it in again. Who cares? The game shoul...

We should have won that game by 20 points and stopped playing when we got the lead in second half. Nice elite defense giving up 30 points in last 15 minutes. I'm going to throw up.

I'm going to be sick. We just lost to a GARBAGE team with a GARBAGE effort. GARBAGE. Inexcusable to lose to that bad of a team, I don't care if we played the game in the depths of hell or on Mars. Bye-bye season.

Nice rebounding

C'mon Hassy

Wow did we get that call?!!!!

I cannot take these games. Is it ulcers when you are so angry that your stomach hurts?

BPR2010 wrote:I have Fios TP, wish I could've helped.

All good man. FoxSports is dumb.

Tonight is going about as bad as possible with about 4 minutes left in all the games.

Nice possession there. EC dribble for 34 seconds....

The guys we have out there are better than the guys they have out there. We don't take good enough care of the ball in general, and when we get up a little we seem to play even looser with the ball.

I appreciate that we are 8-2 as much as the next guy, but not being able to put away garbage teams like St Joes when we have them down is so frustrating.

Can anyone PM me a login for Cox, xfinity or TWC so I can watch this PC game? I'm all set up at my hotel with Rhody on my laptop and PC on my iPad and stupid Fox Sport app does not take Fios for some stupid reason (I assume it is stupid).

Good foul with :02 on the shot clock

We are good but we are not good at stepping on teams. Whenever we go up 8-10 points we concede the next however many baskets.

I tried to launch on my ipad and it says "Playback of this media is not supported" so I had to go to the bullpen bring in my laptop (the "closer").
