I know I am still in the minority on this, but I DO NOT want Thorr back either. I have ZERO faith he will be able to hire the next coach that will lead us back to the NCAAs. This new logo debacle is just another example of how Thorr does not know how to transform a program/athletic department. Has ...

I heard the new logo just resigned after today's performance.

Compete, have fun and maybe pull out a win!

Cox stole this quote from Nick Cannon. He just added "a win" to it.

His dad was a UMass alum so I doubt we had a chance.

He was also a Rhody assistant coach from 2001-2005.

I'm hoping to save us from embarrassment, again, and have the game cancelled due to the ice over

UMass would use sled dogs to travel here for a chance to play us right now. You know they won't request to cancel.

Give her a raise and extension now with a large buyout.

Another reason why we are where we are which I think is related to Coach Cox is some manner.

The term "junk defense" just irks me. It's like when people said Jamie Moyer was a junk ball pitcher at the end of his career. No - he just played to his strengths (painting corners with movement) and being effective. Fordham didn't throw junk defenses out there; Cox and his rotations/sub...

We lose to bad teams even without their starters. Did Cox game plan all Daye?

It’s actually comical how bad the 3 guard are. Have we ever had a worse group of guards? We've never been in a position where we don't have anybody that can just go get a bucket. Talent-wise, and going off of last year, you wouldn't think we'd be that bad. It's almost like there's some piece from a...

Baron’s top teams would absolutely steamroll these stiffs. At least those teams had legitimate stars. Only stars this team has are from their recruiting pages. I disagree with that - this team is good and can hang with almost any team. The front court is stronger then any Rhody team in the last 20 ...

There is a positive. If a new coach came in now, and some of the younger players like Ish and Bassy like the direction the new coach is taking them, maybe they stay. If it happens after the season, they don't know the incoming coach and they most likely leave. I know you don't hire a coach so playe...

I agree on this. I think he just takes value minutes away from the rest of the guards and makes it harder for them to get in a flow. He can’t shoot, turns the ball over a ton and hasn’t played recently. I would have trust in Carey in this game. He is more suited for the Harvard, BU, Holy Cross type...

Ultimately I don't think today changed much. Give him until the end of the year, but get that short list ready. It proved the reoccurring issues that everyone has stated ad naseum for years: No feel for the game…momentum, substitutions, time outs, anything. An inability to make adjustments. The tea...

The Mitchells are too emotional after a mistake. Just now,, he turns it over and then tries to reach in. Could have easily been his 5th.

That press looks so easy to break. They have 3 players near the ball handler. Space out and get a layup. Not rocket science.

Second straight game they got dominated in the 3rd quarter. They definitely need to address that.

Dan had other options at guard if Fatts got out of line. EC, JT and Jeff were all above him on the roster and he could be yanked at any time without a drop off in talent. He had no leverage at the time.

So how do you fix it? What do you recommend? How do you fix it? Coach em up! Do not force passes and show some patience.
