KeaneyBlue - The URI Basketball Forum

OK, so back to Madness. A-10 newcomers, George Mason, posted a video from the opening act to their Madness celebration:

I enjoyed Rhody Joe's before Madness. Was a good time watching the first few innings of the Sox game.

Ken Pomeroy is making a rare change to his ratings system for college basketball teams to better cope with situations where excessive margin of victory would inflate or deflate a team's position. He explains it all in his blog of 20 October. http://kenpom.com/blog/index.php/weblog/entry/pomeroy_rati...

Yeah, I will guess 72ppg for these Rams.

One of the intriguing aspects of this edition of Dan Hurley's Rams.... How will they cope with these changes?

Neil, I don't expect you will really need any help, but I will look for you. Always great to talk Rhody Hoop with you.

I think a small piece of tape, appearing as a dot or a dash, is OK.

I am hoping to keep his tickets in RI and when he cannot come I will post to let some fellow posters know of the availability of extra tickets.... Worth mentioning that in these scenarios, there's no need to hand the physical ticket to someone. If you log into the Ryan Center ticketing site, you ca...

Yes, scrimmages between D1 teams are called "secret" because they are closed to the public and coaches/staff are not allowed to discuss what happened during them.. a la Fight Club.

RF3, I feel you are correct there.

2nd edition of A10 Over/Under is up on CollegeChalkTalk.com

http://collegechalktalk.com/2013/10/18/ ... d-edition/

So 3500 of 4400 is about 79%.

79% of 3500 is 2784, which is what Rod and others who attended would estimate.

Yeah, so maybe adjust the number "officials" gave to Bill Koch by applying the % full to the more recognized 3500 capacity possible given the seating configuration that night (no stage seats).

Another useful Bill Koch tweet!

Watched it this morning. Really enjoyed how the Cox team had a good mix of the trip and the basketball highlights.

Thanks for the reminder, Ace! Setting the DVR!

Agree w Rod.

OK, Hal Kopp's on record for 10k. I dunno. I would think it will be at the same level assuming weather is good. Can anyone remember when we had 10k at meade? In 2010, that season where we could have gotten to the playoffs had we not been screwed out of a game-winning TD in the back of the North endz...

REEF! Come on, Man! Let's dream of a world where Dan and Shaka are leading the best national programs in the A10 then!

OK here's my dilemma...Quarterbacks

Matt Ryan (my typical starter)
Alex Smith
Eli Manning

Good one, BFC!

I dunno. I have no problem with the base and the other "guaranteed" portion and even some of the performance bonuses for acadmics and on-court success. However, some of the sub $10k perks are a bit ridiculous. What's another $2k here or $5k there when the guaranteed portion of the contract...

Yep, can't watch it. Shhhhhhhh... it's a secret!!

Iggy , I posted about the additional orders of PC tickets a few posts up. Nobody was denied tickets who requested them. Mine hit my credit card on the 17th of October. I didn't get a call so I would assume I got what I wanted. The box office would have called had there been some sort of conflict in...

So excited to cheer for Gilvydas this year. You can so obviously see how much he wants to get out there and play for this school and for Dan Hurley.

Yay! Just got my tix! They look great. Love the saturated blue look! Very professional.

What if you put a little Dot or something between the GO and RHODY to help people's eyes discern the two words. I've seen that done with other vanity plates.

I was surprised when the event ended. I thought there would be more.

Guess we'll get to see them during the Nov 1 Exhibition game.

Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if the general application pool has improved at VCU because of the Shaka Smart (and to a lesser extent the prior coaches, Anthony Grant and Jeff Capel) era. It will be very interesting to see what happens if DH gets Rhody to a few NCAAs. I believe DistrictBaller has sa...

In what is almost an annual thing, VCU has reaffirmed their commitment to star head coach, Shaka Smart. I sure hope he never leaves VCU.

Tip of hat to our friend @DistrictBaller...

I think most fans, especially students who may have never attended a Madness event, walked away pumped for the season and generally pleased with the hour of entertainment they had. Good mix of spirit teams doing their fanciest routines (cheerleaders had protective floor mats so they could try out st...

Gilvydas repeats as Rhody Madness Dunk Champion!!

Yes!!! Was saying the same thing!

Thanks, Ace and Bill Koch.

Just rushed here to see why Jordan wasn't introduced.

Almost full house here at Keaney!

I was at Giros with a few Keaney Blue members years ago the week before they closed. Glad to see them back!

It's awesome! I'm jealous.

Do you think they will mail the extra PC tickets purchased along with the season tickets? The additional PC game tickets that season tix holders have ordered will NOT be included in the season tix mailing. They will be available for pick up at the Ryan Center Box Office starting next week. You can ...

The pick your seats functionality has been enabled for the Providence game. There are no seats available in the 100s (no surprise) There are maybe a few dozen single seats scattered around the 200s (one left in 205, for example). 300 level is full at half-court both sides and the corners are half-fu...

Checking with the Athletics Dept the configuration that prevents the creation of many "singles" is in place and is widely used in the industry.

Yeah, a little compared to a game against a BCS whale.

WHAT?! $1000 to post an obit?!

That's awesome news. A10 needs some time to settle in with Davidson rounding up the membership.

The choose your own seats feature is disabled on the PC game TODAY ONLY due to the high demand for that game in the first 24hrs of availability. Tomorrow they expect to enable that feature once the initial flood of orders passes.

Wow, you're right. I had only tried for the PC game.

Ha, those are, I believe, in the back row of section 205. 205 is the mid-court "club" section with padded seats on the east side of the building with access to the less crowded east concourse overlooking the football field. Sounds like I got lucky. Was really fortunate because I couldn't ...

Mine was also charged. Did they ever call you to tell you what seats you got?
