My point is you’re looking at it the wrong way. You can be individually happy with the outcome of that game and still undecided on this teams potential or upside. These things aren’t mutually exclusive. Most posters on this board expected us to somehow lose, or win by at best single digits (I know ...

Vegas/Kenpom set the line at -7 and we won by 24. Not sure what else there is to say. I was surprised the line was that low, but it is what it is. No one’s walking around RI today with their chest puffed out cause we beat a bad Milwaukee team. But we handily took care of business, more impressively...

The odd thing to me is that despite having not 1 significant win our metrics are pretty good. I mean we are 14 spots ahead of Dayton and they beat Kansas. I know they have 3 bad losses but we have 2 bad ones and nowhere near the quality of wins they have. To me it shows the flaws in some of the met...

#85 NET is mediocre. It's not progress.

I just looked at our schedule based on current NET rankings. In conference we have 4 Q2 games, 2 at home 2 away. We have 2 Q1 games both on the road and VCU at 75 just makes that cut. This schedule is a disaster.

Surprised to hear they are NET 322, we better not lose this game , I will stick to my URI by 5 Their KenPom ratings is a little higher at 214, better than Duquesne, LaSalle, and GW.

Sorry to state a fact about DH's year 4 record at URI that several found offensive. This fact makes it difficult for Thor to fire Cox for performance reasons. Does URI really want to face the possible repercussions? Since Thorr hired Cox, this could be his Waterloo. Thor needs to let Cox's contract...

Talked to someone close to the program tonight who thinks Thorr is the problem, still thinks this guy can keep his job even though most want him out. We'll see.

I think to say we are more talented than almost all the A10 is a big stretch. Probably more than the lower half, but not as talented as the upper tier 1-5.
