I can handle execution issues (missing FTs) more than I can coaching mistakes and players doing the wrong thing. Why didn't Terrell know never to foul when you are up 4 points with less than a minute to go? That has to be coached so they know what to do under pressure late. We ran 8 seconds off the ...

EZ did a great job keeping the students and all fans engaged.
Loudest crowd I have ever heard.
I was initially disappointed by the empty seats. There were also less students than the UMass game.
I think the 6,000 was right.
By the second half it was so loud my mind had it as a huge crowd.

Rhody83

I haven't read every post game post. There are a lot of them. I agree with most of what i have read. I haven't seen much about what bothered me the most. Clock management by Dan (he owns that as the coach). TJ rebounds the ball with 1:08 to go. They start to bring it up as Terrell crosses half court...

Rhody83

Blueman where is the rant?

Rhody83

LMAO on the Red Bull. We will hand them out to the students in line tonight.

What is your thought on student turnout and overall crowd tonight?
What is the limit on students if seats are unsold?

Rhody83

EZ getting pumped for your energy tonight!

Rhody83

Here's something I read today. Only one team in the last 21 years has gotten into the field as an at large without a win against a team in the tournament. So, if URI goes 3-1 with the loss to Dayton and gets to the finals of the A-10 tournament, which would give the school the 5 wins that most on t...

No true. If Rhody wins tonight, Our magic number of 1 to get in the top 4 is against Davidson. Any Davidson loss or URI win. UMass could still get in the top 4.

Rhody83

I think they maxed the student crowd at the UMass game. I believe they reported 2,300 students. I know they cap the student tickets at some number even if there are tickets still available. I don't know if the number is 2,300 or 2,500. No snow forecasted for tonight (there was snow foecasted for the...

Rhody83

Oh we can certainly beat them, but worth noting that their PG Gibbs missed quite a bit of time over the last 2 months with an injury. He's back now. Good point on Gibbs. I checked into that. He missed 7 games. He has played the last two games and Davidson has scored 65 and 77 points. He played in t...

Rhody83

This will be the toughest test yet for our excellent perimeter defense. Switch on everything, especially with the guards. Be careful about helping too much from dribble penetration - better to give up a contested look at the rim from a guy who might be looking to pass than a wide-open 3. Benchmarks...

That is the code "2for20" online at gorhody.com.

Some of the Davidson stats in posts on the 1st page of this thread could be building DU up a little too much. To me the posts made it seem like Rhody will have to do everything right to have a chance. 1) DU is going to score so many points how is Rhody going to keep up: DU has scored significant poi...

Rhody83

As of their last game, Davidson has a cumulative .724 FT%, on 3-pointers their average is .392 and have canned 315 treys for the season, 12.6 per game. Their 3 point attempts are 435 or 17.4 per game. Team scoring average is 80.4 and they have five players with average ppg in double digits. Tyler K...

Rhody83

One point about UMass and their OOC. Yesterday was the first ranked team UMass played this year. If URI is the second most deserving A10 team, they will get in. If they are third, they will not get in. How does URI become second most deserving - finish second or better in regular season and make the...

Rhody83

Not sure how it works before the automatic bids are decided. If I read it correctly VCU is the 13th team in and no other A10 team makes it. Hard for me to believe. I love UMass ahead of Rhody after a 16 point thrashing.

Rhody83

I don't know if we would win a tie breaker with UMass.
If we beat Davidson Weds, our magic number for a bye will be one (any Rhody win or Davidson loss).
We would be up 2 games on Davidson with 3 to play and we would win the tiebreaker with the head-to-head win.

Correction. I meant Davidson

Rhody83

EZ thanks for the look behind the curtains. Much appreciated.

I love it when you lead both ends of the student sections in the "U-R-I" chant and the "Rhody Rhody Rhody" chant.

I look forward to your energy Weds night!

Rhody83

Good win and onto to Weds. Better than what Dayton and their fans are saying tonight.
Looking forward to the Ryan Center rocking. Students support should be awesome (take last Weds crowd and add the pink out to it)!

Rhody, Rhody, Rhody!

Rhody83

I think if we finish in 2nd place (4 wins would do that) and make it to the finals (2 wins in Brooklyn) we are in as the second team in the A10.

Rhody83

Ramster mention back in this thread the impact of the D League in developing players for the NBA. I have to disagree with this. Provide me a list of D League alum that have made it in the NBA for more than a cup of coffee. Players are better off staying in college and trying to improve their draft p...

Me and my brother are staying at Sleep In at Prospect Park. No clue about the area but it was cheap. Any of you all want to designate a particular drinking establishment to hang at? I received an email from the URI Alumni Association with this link for URI info for the A10 Tournament http://alumni....

Something to watch for is Senior Night for the second tier teams: Dayton @ LaSalle UMass @ GW The home team could pull an upset in both of these. To me URI has three big games left - Davidson, @ LaSalle and @ Dayton. I am not worried about beating Davidson at home. The game @ LaSalle is the big one ...

9 player rotation with 8 players meeting or exceeding expectations last night. Only Biggie underachieved. He missed some easy shots and didnt play well on D. He was covering UMass backup PG when he went the entire floor and dunked it. Dan immediately took him out. I would say EC was average. He shot...

Rhody83

BB87 what was the price?

Rhody83

I just looked up the Brooklyn Bridge Marriott - $300 per night for a room with two double beds (no rollaway beds).

Rhody83

I agree with one game at a time. I am going to assume we beat GM.
Next Weds we need to crush Davidson like we did to UMass.
Dispose of Davidson next Weds. Put another team behind us.

Rhody83

Some thoughts on this subject from last night's game: EZ didn't seem to use the mic that much to get chants going. Not sure why The fans get loud on a great play. UMass calls a TO. Instead of having music, video or EZ keeping the students cheering there is some event on the court that brings everyon...

Rhody83

Sign Man should have a sign for Cady tonight.

Who's your Cady now!
With Rhody ahead in the game - How is this for a rivalry!

Rhody83

An ass for every seat = a sellout. That simple. It doesn't matter who is in the seat and how much they paid.

Rhody83

Cady Lalanne quoted in today's Springfield paper: "I guess because they feel like it's a rivalry game. And I guess to them it is a rivalry game. To us, I don't really know if it's a rivalry game. It's just one of those games ....". Lalane suggested the current state of the UMass-URI series...

My favorite coming out song is Phil Collins In the Air Tonight. Bruins used it in the playoffs during their Cup run year and the year after. "I can feel it coming in the air tonight. I've been waiting for this moment for all my life.." Another idea is to get a big URI flag and pass it over...

Rhody83

I'm getting so excited for tomorrow. I just need you guys to give me some more ideas for chants for the student section for tomorrow. Already planning the I Believe chant for right at the beginning of the game. I like the idea of the fight song. It isn't very hard. Blueman can help you lead it. I'm...

Rhody83

I am a new poster to the board. Have read it for a few years. Rhody grad living in Springfield area. This is the biggest game of the year for me. I am getting amped up already. Leaving early tomorrow for dinner near campus. Article today in Springfield paper today about what UMass needs to do to hav...

Rhody83

I agree TP. I hope it isn't because they think UMass fans are going to make the trip.
I am hoping Dan goes on his PR campaign to the students the next few days. He works hard on getting students to show up. He did a great job for Nebraska game.
