Wow! Very exciting

Rhodysk

For an athletic department that’s lacking money, where do they find the money to pay exit fee from AAC ( reported 10mil ) and pay the Kevin Ollie ( up to 10mil ) situation? What do they do with football? Is it dead? Beg the CAA for football only? Go independent like Umass? It’s very obvious this dec...

Rhodysk

Idk About this UConn to big east stuff but: If the big east had and BALLS they would not accept them. Honestly the big east really doesn’t need them. Plus UConn tried for years to get out of the big east to go to a power 5 conference and when that didn’t happen they cried about the AAC. There is a r...

Rhodysk

I can’t remember when ESPN/ESPN2 does it’s friday night A-10 basketball games? December seems early to me and I don’t know if it’s only league A-10 games? Either way this game has TV written all over it. Maybe NBC sports but most likely CBS college sports. Can you imagine what the scene is going to ...

Rhodysk

Any new updates or pictures of the field renovation?
I know it’s been a couple weeks since last picture but I am very excited to see it done!

Rhodysk

Yes UConn does it real good but so don’t every other university expect Rhode Island I guess. I’m guessing the banner would cost maybe $100-$150, can the athletic department not afford that? Just doesn’t make sense at all. We are a school that has to teach people about our history because it doesn’t ...

Rhodysk

Every year I ask for 1 improvement to the Ryan center and its an absolute shame it never gets done. My bitch is to start having banners hanging with former players and years at school. You don’t have to retire there number or anything just something that shows we have a HISTORY! So sad that they don...

Rhodysk

The blue print looks great! That field is really going to look good!
Eventually I still would like to see stands In the end zone ( scoreboard side ) nothing too high to close in and then the band would have a place to be at all times.

Rhodysk

Maybe a 3:30 game now that there is lights. That would be great for pre game tailgating and even post game victory parties!

Rhodysk

This settles where the game will be!!!

Rhodysk

As a long time fan and someone who played on that field it’s kinda sad to see the grass go. The sod on that field was really good. As I say that I’m also very excited to see the field turf be put in along with the lights. It’s about time URI “ thinks BIG”. Now a days you have to have field turf. Kid...

Rhodysk

Thanks rhody83

Rhodysk

Word on the streets is the former ECU player has committed to URI!
Per @evendaniels twitter page

Rhodysk

All great info!!! Football program moving forward and winning games, getting people to Meade is such a huge plus for URI in general.

Rhodysk

Any word on where the spring game will be? I thought meade was getting the field turf and lights? Or was it pushed back another year?

Rhodysk

As I watched the Carolina/duke game last night I wondered would I really want URI and Pee Cee in the same conference. There is nothing I HATE more than anything Pee Cee. But as I watched Carolina/duke play for the third time this season maybe even a 4th later in the NCAA, I don’t know if I could sto...

Rhodysk

What heart this team has! They finally found how to play with each other. Tate stepped way up today!

Rhodysk

Up and down half for rhody but we are in it!!! Time to ball out in the 2nd half!

Rhodysk

Rest up boys. Tomorrow is going to be an all out fight.

Rhodysk

Good timeout. Tired legs. Sloppy offensive.
Cox is learning!

Rhodysk

When the game seems to have no emotion rhody wakes up and goes on a run!!!
Great ball movement

Rhodysk

CL is the a man child but don’t let the refs take you out your game. Do you!
JH right in the balls. I speak for every guy and say ouch!

Rhodysk

Now rhody plays like this?
Is this a dream or is GW that bad?

Rhodysk

That video was great to watch but then depressing. It’s crazy how much things are different from less than 12 months ago. Watching that video you could tell that those guys really enjoyed playing with and for each other. I don’t know if you can say that now. Does winning hide things maybe, does losi...

Rhodysk

With the lights and turf going in this off season ( which is awesome) there was some questions about the spring game and where it would be played. Would Narragansett high school be an option? They have practice there before in the spring. Also what about Cranston stadium? Middle of the state, could ...

Rhodysk

This game has set free throw shooting back 100 years. Wow.
I thought rhody was bad, good lord. I would be pulling what hair I have if I was a St. Louis fan.

Rhodysk

Time to mix in some zone coach cox. With JH and CL in foul trouble it would be nice to see some in the 2nd half.

Rhodysk

An over the court scoreboard was in the original plans but with cost cutting plans they lowered the roof some 10-15 feet which did away with the plans for an over the court scoreboard.

Rhodysk

ProFootballTalk: Report: Dolphins to interview Darren Rizzi for head coaching vacancy

Rhodysk

Tate looks pretty good this game. Doing a lot of little things. Looking more comfortable

Rhodysk

Fatts just needed a trip to Hawaii to find his shot!

Rhodysk

Ok rhody I see you!!! Defense is on point!
Fouls shots are rimming out but overall a great start

Rhodysk

Looks like the refs are slowing down on the calls. We actually got a few minutes of basketball being played

Rhodysk

I love how cox got the T! Might of been the wrong time but at least he showed some fire. Even tho he looked like he was gonna cry the whole time they were shooting the T! Lol

Rhodysk

Anyone know what conference these refs are from?
I would think they won’t be very much longer.
Between too many calls and even some missed calls ( as hard as that seems ) both teams may not have enough guys to finish the game.

Rhodysk

Harris is looking comfortable each possession

Rhodysk

I think fatts needs to come off the bench the next few games.. he can still play 26-30 mins a game but not as a starter. His speed coming off the bench after the first timeout could help him get going.

Rhodysk

I would like to see a lot more out of Harris.
When he has the ball you think it was a grenade he looks lost with the ball in his hands

Rhodysk

Wow no one on this team can make a jump shot...

Rhodysk

How does the referee review a targeting call if there is no broadcast/scoreboard replay?

Rhodysk

Who is going to score the basketball for this team this year.

Rhodysk

Even with all the time spent together you can tell this team is still learning to play with each other. Defensively this team is in mid season form.

Rhodysk

My take was just how the stadium is built with an upper deck plus a full house. I definitely don’t think JM should be thinking of fbs. They are definitely in a good place. I don’t think you build a 40,000 seat stadium but a 12,000-15,000 would be ideal for fcs. I still think rhody should shoot for u...

Rhodysk

Rhody forces a turnover and I have no idea what replay was looking at, leads to JM TD 7-7.

Is it just me or is everyone else jealous when looking at JM stadium?

Rhodysk

Tough game for rhody. Never thought this team would get blown out.

Rhodysk

Anyone having any luck finding whalers to watch this game?
Says caa.tv but nothing comes up?

Rhodysk

As much as I love the fact that the game says “SOLD OUT “ how is that possible? I get selling out actual tickets for seats but if there is such a demand they can’t sell “ standing room “ tickets? I remember the days when all around the field it use to be about 4-5 people deep. So sold out to me seem...

Rhodysk

Is this really real? URI could be knocking on the door of top 10!
Who would of thought that in July?
Good stuff!

Rhodysk

Rhodys Defense and Wide Receivers are dominating this game. Easy pitch and catch. I don’t think I ever seen a group of wide outs dominant a game never mind a group of rhody wide outs! ( maybe cy butler and bobby apgar against BU one year.) Only URI would put the brown band behind there team bench. R...

Rhodysk

This team is something else I say!
I still can’t believe I’m watching a URI team that can score on offense, defense and now special teams.. wow

People need to wake up and take notice! Is 10,000 next week for the brown game a possibility???
