Couldn't agree more with your entire assessment. It is a failure from the top down and has been for decades. I would actually say that it is not only the URI administrations thinking small, but the entire state system needs to be reconfigured for the benefit of URI as a whole. I am not from Rhode I...

The Foundation has been known for having an extremely parochial mindset when it comes to where money is spent. That’s why it’s such a revolving door there with employees. Work 80hrs a week for peanuts!

SG EDIT: Reminder about keeping politics out of these threads. Post edited.

Taylor Swift

Seriously- she is that great of a coach and leader she inspires me to be better. I kid you not. Her charisma and transparency are rarities these days. She’s a fantastic person and I need to get myself over there to support her and the team. She has built a program!

Taylor Swift

Hear me out, but what if we brought in Jimmy Baron (2005-2009) to lead this program? It would obviously be a major challenge but who’s to say he couldn’t form an experienced staff of former HCs to help with running the program? Maybe bring in Rob McClanaghan for Player Development? Who wouldn’t be ...

It has happened before lol

Taylor Swift

I have a few other thoughts right now as I’m looking at Twitter after the Friars beat Cincy tonight. If Rhody pulls out a win, there’s zero energy. No post game hype from the locker room. Monotone post game interviews talking about process. Getting back to the lab. Adjustments. Fatigue. Do we even h...

I did see where there’s the annual viewing party at George’s. I usually love going to this every year but certainly going to pass. Going to prep for the snow we are going to get and curl up on the couch and enjoy a relaxing Friday night.

Taylor Swift

Thomas played 38 minutes because he's the only point guard on the team. He came out in the 1st half for about 30 seconds, then fouled out late in the 2nd half. Otherwise, his minutes would have been around 39:30. So when Cox says “fatigue”, Sebastian is the only one who’d really qualify as “fatigue”

Taylor Swift

I miss going to the games, but starting to miss it less Question: not starting a discussion here, just want a yes or no answer. If Pitino was the coach and we were 17-1 and beer was allowed in the seats and masks were required, would you go? Absolutely yes and I’m not a fan of beer so don’t need it...

Taylor Swift

Tammi's energy and leadership = incredible to see! SO happy for these ladies to see success.

Taylor Swift

My take was signing DC as HC would have kept that recruiting class and then BUILD on said recruiting class the subsequent seasons. We did not see that. Anyone not on a contract would have lost their job already with this dismal product.

Taylor Swift

Note he didn’t just hit bingo on “it’s all part of the process” he dropped multiple “you gotta give them credit”. Nearly drove off the road. Didn’t seem disappointed with loss and didn’t seem to have a clue as to why they lost. Agree wholeheartedly with my fellow 205er who turned around in the last...

Taylor Swift

Jeez part of the process and you gotta give them credit it’s Baron all over again . I do think Baron was a better coach than Cox Makes no sense to not give Jalen some minutes in the 1st half without Shep available Cox has to be gone end of season He certainly had a better philosophy I.e. let’s have...

Well, can you think of a funner healthy snack? Fruit Roll-Ups? I ABSOLUTELY think that NYGFan won the "Best Post Comment" Award for this orange slice one! I cant stop laughing since I read it last night! :lol: My guess is you as mom brought orange slices for the kids? 💜 it really is so no...

Yup. I think the fan base is fatigued from hearing the same rigmarole for the past few seasons.

Taylor Swift

I am trying to wind down tonight and I’m still trying to wrap my brain around the way this is going. If this is the end of it for David as HC, they will have to do a buyout for his contract next season. That being said, my understanding is that whatever guaranteed salary he has without any perks and...

We did but just because so many people were getting on the road early that getting out of there would be a breeze.

That’s a valid decision. I’ll stand behind that.

Taylor Swift

I was watching the rebound stats all game and they were basically even at every point I looked so I was shocked driving home to hear that we were out rebounded by 9. Just checked the game cast - after Antwan foul around 5 min mark (and I think he was pulled out quickly after) we didn’t get another ...

Alexander Mogilny and Jeremy Roenick were my go to guys in that game. Unstoppable.

Hah! I always was the Red Wings or Kings. My game strategy was shooting as many one-timers as I could.

so, I met Tyler Burton's dad after the game at a local restaurant. Asked him why Tyler didn't stay local (he's from Uxbridgde, MA) and consider URI...his response was "Ask David Cox"...BTW, he is the leading scorer in the A10! So what's that about Cox's recruiting ability?? Wow. I was jus...

Taylor Swift

Cox blamed the loss on fatigue. Someone asked why Carey didn't play in the first half and asked if it was disciplinary. Cox said no, coach's decision. Maybe giving him a few minutes in the first half could have helped with the fatigue? Nothing this guy says makes any sense. The fatigue comment baff...

I'm listening to Steve, they have so much canned nouse playing in the background... it's like they're trying to make it sound like there are people still in the Ryan Center?! Ooooof!

Taylor Swift

Steve is trying to tell those of us listening on the radio that Richmond is a good team, compared to our last two losses?

Taylor Swift

This is unspeakable at this point. Ladies and gentleman, this is it. Over. No redemption whatsoever.

He’s either going to a bad P6 team or a strong mid major program. If we offer Archie what we offered Dan I think we would have a shot. He had a bad final season at Indiana, so I don’t see why a program is going to offer him 3mm I don’t know about that. He was 10 games over .500 at IU but made no NC...

"Maybe get a win".. .this is seriously the mentality of playing in a summer volleyball or tennis league.

The Good news with this loss is that there will be no more arguments about the NIT and Cox should get replaced. This is such an unlikable team. Next years team will be no better with where they stand now. They were lucky to win some of the other games against bad teams. They earned this At this poi...

Grasso was horrible in the game we beat Bryant this year. Way overrated especially by the local RI media. Lost his composure in that game, was a bad leader for his players then the last 3 minutes of the game just sat on the bench contributing nothing - just gave up. I’ll keep our current staff befo...

105, as much as I would like to have Pitino here [yes I would sacrifice my morals to do so lol], there's just no way. His buyout at Iona is rumored to be around 10 mil or so. That's unless some BIG booster of ours decides to cough that up. Since Dooley retired, maybe the new prez would say let's go...

Taylor Swift

The way I feel about this season is how I felt during CFL’s last two seasons. The program has regressed terribly. I believe it was 105 who said this recently, that there’s absolutely zero excitement around this team locally. I have many friends who are casual fans and make maybe a handful of home g...
