Re: 2015-16 Schedule Discussion

And in the process we'd lose the ability to play in a Thanksgiving tournament. So last year, no Kansas game and this year no shot to play Maryland. That's just a hypothetical, right? There is no way that the state could mandate a tournament taking away URI's chance to play one of the most important...

Re: The Upcoming 2015-16 Season!

Is Hassan even a problem? I don't get what this conversation is about - the kid is going to be preseason first team all-conference. Why all the concern about his game? The short answer = offseason boredom Can next season start already? We're burning a lot of calories over-analyzing and jumping to c...

Re: Gilvydas Biruta --- Denver Nuggets?

Will certainly open up doors for other opportunities, maybe a semi-pro league, Euro league, something like that

Gilvydas Biruta --- Denver Nuggets?

Gil will be working out for the Denver Nuggets today. Any chance of him getting drafted?

Whether or not he has NBA potential // improvements to his game ... Or that's how this started anyways

Re: The Upcoming 2015-16 Season!

Kind of random, but I was thinking about how 3 of Rhody's starters have serious NBA potential. EC was being scouted hardcore last year, and that will only drastically increase, and its pretty likely that he will declare after this season. (Hopefully not) Kuran was considered to be NBA bound straight...

Re: A-10 Announces Men’s Basketball Schedule Pairings

Too bad... In that case, URI will have to play the "good" teams on the road and if they beat them, that's much better for the RPI and potential seeding...if they prove to be good enough for an NCAA bid. So hopefully by Selection Sunday, you'll be saying "I'm glad URI had a pretty tou...

Re: Poll: Does Dan Hurley arguing calls help or hurt the tea

Yes and secondarily because it's impossible to quantify whether it does or doesn't have an impact. Should this guy start or that guy start is also an opinion based poll but you can actually back up your opinion with data to support (stats, +/- percentages, etc). There is no stat that points to us g...

The poll is dumb because your answer is that it has no impact/evens out?

Re: Poll: Does Dan Hurley arguing calls help or hurt the tea

It seems that Hurley argues literally every single call that refs make against Rhody -- Does this benefit us or hurt us? Seems odd to not include a third option for "no effect" or "evens out," which would probably be my vote. Certain refs probably react poorly to a coach getting...

Re: Poll: Does Dan Hurley arguing calls help or hurt the tea

Once you have a bad reputation with the refs, it's hard to shake it. The refs will anticipate things happening before they do. That's already happened at times imo. If Dan does really tone it down some this season, I think things will be OK. If not, especially with the new rules, there could be pro...

Re: 2015-16 Starting Five Predictions?

No doubt that those are our most talented. But, I wouldn't be surprised to see Earl start at center. Iverson gives so much versatility, as a starter and off the bench. I still think Thompson will be in the mix by the end of the season. Just a feeling. I agree, but Hurley likes Terrell and Garrett t...

2015-16 Starting Five Predictions?

What do you guys think that this year's starting five will be? My guess is:
PG: Jarvis Garrett
SG: EC Matthews
SF: Jared Terrell
PF: Kuran Iverson
PF/C: Hassan Martin
