Based on the slow introduction of the Rhody Pub and recent moves elsewhere, it will probably only be a matter of time before URI follows suit and starts selling beer at its concessions and allowing it to be brought back to your seats.

RF1

A-10 conference members UMass, Richmond, and VCU will start selling beer at their concessions for men's basketball games this season. This trend is also happening elsewhere. PC just started beer sales at its on campus Schneider Arena for men's hockey. UR = University of Richmond https://twitter.com/...

Am I the only one who hates these scrimmages? Why not play St. John’s in a real game? Some of these scrimmage matchups would be great non-conference games. Want a scrimmage, play against a D2 school to tune up. St John's probably wouldn't agree to play URI in a real game. The last time the Johnnies...

I understand the rule on the number of scrimmages + exhibtions. Is there a limit on scrimmages only? Harvard has scrimmages against URI, UCONN & BC. Not sure if they also have an exhibition. Two in total - either exhibition or scrimmage per my understanding. Harvard is not scrimmaging URI. They...

Hate to see that. I just hope everyone here doesn't throw him under the bus completely. Who knows what people were influencing Preston to say that to him.

Found this interesting read on buy games. Cost has risen to the $80-100K range these days. Probably helps to explain why URI is now playing more games away from the Ryan Center than preceding seasons. Syracuse pays basketball opponents to (hopefully) lose; how buy games work https://www.syracuse.com...

PC Hockey just signed a deal with NBC Sports Boston, the station that has the Celtics. It will air 11 home games, 8 of which will be live (the other 3 will be delayed until after the Celts game). Seems that at least one RI school is being proactive in getting local tv coverage for its athletic teams.

luke wrote: ↑5 years ago Is there any information yet on which OOC URI games will be on ESPN+ ?

I believe that all A-10 teams home games not televised will be available on ESPN+. This would likely mean all Ryan Center OOC games as there does not appear to be any tv at this time.

RF1

It’s on ESPN+ ESPN+ will also do URI men's basketball games. My fear from the beginning is all that will really change is the streaming platform. It probably will be a more reliable stream with higher resolution quality. It however may still be the same crappy game production done by URI we saw pre...

Tell me another example where the firing and not paying has taken place other than Ollie. If UCONN did that again with Dan, they wouldn’t get any top candidates for the opening. UCONN paid its fired football coach $6 million in severance two years ago. This is a crazy discussion any way. Those who ...

And Providence isn't losing concerts to Fenway or Gillette, there are a very very small numbers of acts that have the drawing power to play those places. Providence was doomed as a concert venue the minute Mohegan happened, and that was a while ago. Anyone that knows that business knew that to be t...

The circus is gone. Providence hasn't had an A-list music artist roll through town in a decade plus. And with the casinos that is never changing. Artists will play Mohegan and then do Boston, never stopping in Providence. PC (and P-Bruins) were the biggest benefactors of the upgrades, let's not kid...

Dan will win at UCONN. This year is a wash year (not his players). He is getting a top Recruiting class this year. They will show promise next year and be very good the following year. They aren’t firing him. The AD would have to lose his job first. They can’t afford to pay the $2.5 million per yea...

I really like DH, he is a good coach, he better do really well or watch his back at UConn. Can't this kind of be said about every legit D1 job in the country though? Usually if you don't do really well you are going to be in trouble. Unless your name is Baron of course! I really doubt Hurley went t...

Perhaps if URI hadn't already had to come up with some 36M for the construction of its basketball home (RC) for games, it too would also have a brand new basketball only practice facility. Make no mistake about it - the luxury of not paying a single cent and having the state pay 100% for a total 100...

Its a beautiful historic facility. I was impressed with the top mezzanine with the Greek Columns. Love the horseshoe shape too. Some of the old Ivy stadiums just reek of history and tradition.

First impressions are always important. Vast improvement over what it was before.

For those interested in purchasing tickets to the game versus PC at the DDC, I got an email from PC regarding ticket options (have bought URI game tickets from them in the past and am on the email distribution list).
