3200 strong showed up to watch the Cougars play the defending champs

Ob, You don't REALLY think the RC stacks up to OSU's facilities do you? As far as Joe Young, buy a clue. He lied and PC held him to his word. The NCAA upheld PC's stance, and Joe Young has shown his true colors. I guess his "sick aunt" is much better watching him 1500 miles away in Oregon....

seanmc94

Ill eat ramsters computer if this is 100 percent privately funded. No way the politicians can help themselves

seanmc94

You have an on campus arena and you couldn't sell out VCU.
Glass houses bro.
Fyi, PC is heading for a 3rd straight game with over 12,000 at the "Dump" as you like to call it.

As always, FIVE STRAIGHT

seanmc94

Hey dipshits, If you paid attention, you would know that I prefer the atmosphere at a sold out Ryan Center over the DDC. However; if you think a kid in the top 75-100; who is seeing places like Butler, VCU, Minnesota or Pitt is blown away by the RC; think again. Why don't you ask JT how your "a...

seanmc94

I love the RC; but I wouldn't call it awe inspiring.

seanmc94

C'mon, you can't lose by 28 to anybody, Sean. Horrid defense. Dunn a no show. Please. Really, how good are they? PC I mean. If we played them now, it would be a toss up. Actually, I think we would win. Really? How good is PC? Ask Gtown, ND, Butler, X and Umass. Better yet, ask Danny Hurley. We ran ...

seanmc94

yes, that is probably a good idea. On to Marquette.

PC needs to stop scheduling the league favorite on Senior night.

interesting stat:
at PC Nova had 37 FTs on 20 FGA inside the 3pt line
tonight 31 FTs on 18 FGA inside the 3pt line

seanmc94

PC leads the conference in FTs attempted. tonight 27-7 from teh line for Nova...a jumpshooting team
Senior night and the zebras...should have saved the airfare

seanmc94

Last year the A10 teams played the RPI game perfectly and everyone here trumpeted it. Now it sucks?
Be consistent

seanmc94

Hears my problem with ESPN, they are talking up Pitt as making a run at the bubble. Katz claiming that a victory today vs Cuse can really help.

Pitt is 17-10 with an RPI of 46. Cuse has an RPI of 69.

That's not exactly a "signature" win.

seanmc94

Too close to "Hershey highway". Unless it is widened. No one wants to hear about a Hurley highway constantly being backed up.

seanmc94

Bobby to SJU before he makes the big leap is intriguing.
SHU and Rutgers aren't in the picture for either imo

seanmc94

Foster is one of the most respected coaches in NE. Big loss for URI. He will end up in charge of a solid program very soon

seanmc94

I wonder if Vegas will have odds for taking the field vs. UK this year.

seanmc94

That call drives me nuts. Terrell stands planted, hands straight up and gets whistled.

seanmc94

Shades of Sam Kennison?

seanmc94

Hey,

SWC scratched a check. Time for the rest of you cheepos to do the same

seanmc94

Hard to believe that song was released 12 years ago. Played out indeed, especially when 95% of college arenas use it. Could be worse though. PC fans have copied the Izzone's "YES!" chant during free throws. I'm not a WWE guy, but I guess it originates there. Izzone started using it last s...

seanmc94

Well, the clowns over on Scout have Dan signed sealed and delivered to SH. They call us delusional, because we don't buy it. This coming from the same bunch, who think somehow, they're the equal to four time NCAA champions UConn, and they are New England's team. Now, THAT'S delusional! To that end,...

Rod nailed it. Not everyone has rosy memories of their alma mater

seanmc94

thats why the baseball model is the best. If you want to go straight from HS; great. If not you go for three years. It puts the student back in student athlete.

seanmc94

I know we disagree on this; but I don't think his game translates to the major college level

seanmc94

I don't find any of Rambone's posts offensive.....he should continue to post what he wants.....it may be a defense mechanism to help us continue to win.....I would rather seanmc not post about how great pc and the big east is and how much more major they are than us and the A-10 And I would prefer ...

seanmc94

I think it's impossible to ignore the team that wins the regular season title. Especially if you are starting 2 frosh and 2 sophs. OOC bumps can be explained away.

seanmc94

Do you think Cooley would jump, Sean? PC is paying him, what, almost 2 mil a year? They are also like URI, in that they have a chance to be a consistent power in their new league, instead of banging their heads against the wall in the old BE. Yes, PC has their drawbacks just like URI. Tougher to re...

seanmc94

I'm not saying Hurley jumps at the first job; he certainly wanted no part of Rutgers. But let's say for the sake of argument he has some succes this year and next and someone like Maryland comes calling with a 2.5 mill contract. Would you be pissed if he left? I've said it before, PC and URI will al...

seanmc94

Hurley to SH; I don't buy it. Power conference; tough to say no.

seanmc94

The team is a reflection of the coach
Not suprised at all by the adjectives used

seanmc94

Even with Dunn PC isn't going to beat us next year. But about Dunn, I agree with those who recognize his talents here, he is exceptional and finally living up to his billing, he is also really the only guard that did whatever he wanted against our mighty defense this year, that should tell you some...

seanmc94

Dan and Ed are actually pretty close. Work out at the same gym. No one understands the job of running a program in the state better than those two.

seanmc94

I never agree with Sean but I do here. I haven't seen the Euros that routinely end up in the first round, but there are not 10 better prospects in college right now than KD. All URI fans should be hoping he is a First Rounder, because we will smack the shit out of PC next year without him :) Dunn o...

seanmc94

Dunn is a 6 ft 3 PG with long arms and freakish speed. He has instincts that you can't teach on defense. He is one of the top assist guys in the country and is near the top in steals as well. He has a much improved jump shot and when he gets to play with players that can keep up with his athleticism...

seanmc94

You're correct. PC should be more charitable. Winning 5 straight isn't very Christian. :lol: For starters, they seemed to forget the first two of the Ten Commandments when they let Shammgod Wells rename himself. Now that's some funny stuff. FYI, God Shammgod changed his name before enrolling. I thi...

seanmc94

Very true
Lost in the BS swirling lately is when cops go to work; they may not come home. Very few occupations carry that stipulation

Hope hes OK

seanmc94

You're correct. PC should be more charitable. Winning 5 straight isn't very Christian.

seanmc94

I thought ha of time was great

seanmc94

A rim protector would make Rhody's perimeter defense even stronger. Easy to play up on your guy if you have a shot blocker patrolling the paint.

seanmc94

Sidiki is a great comparison. Talented players are worth the risk. Iverson is light years ahead of Sidiki. Great risk reward opp for Hurley

seanmc94

If the "expert" rankings don't improve; you will continue to see teams ranked in the top 25 left out of the tourney. Numbers don't lie and this trend will start to expose the bias in the voting process

seanmc94

seanmc94

I know it's tough to be objective after a tough loss; but URI starts 2 frosh and 2 sophs. Garrett looks like the real deal at the point. A year from now the UMASS thread and this one will look ridiculous.

seanmc94

Again, you are speaking about what you know nothing about.

Just remember when you all start crying about me "hijacking a thread" that i got called out by multiple posters specifically by name. Losing to Brown sucks; no excuse for that. PC needs to do better. Saying Brown is more relevant is just ignorant. However, you can call me all the cute name...

Not exactly apples to apples
Uri with a program defining game; ranked opponent, for first place in the league vs. just another game for PC.

Solid effort though
