TP, I want nothing more than the Rams to be a great team. I hope you're right. I need someone with more basketball IQ than I have to explain how we're going to compete on par with last season with no threat off the dribble? I despise eternal pessimists, I'm not trying to be pessimistic, I'm asking a...

Keatgsr07

Wow. I HATE losing, but I am absolutely not mad right now. I think this team showed incredible guts this morning. Giant marbles for this group. I'd love to have this game in my back pocket, but I am more encouraged than I was before the game tipped that we are going to be OK. Not being contentious,...

Keatgsr07

who's the fuck that's whistling

Keatgsr07

This is going to be a really, really stressful season.

Keatgsr07

I don't have the stomach or patience to watch Hurley allow Iverson to "shed rust" or "learn on-the-job."

Sorry kid, only two games in, but you shouldn't be getting minutes in high-test games like this.

Keatgsr07

Get Kuran OUT OF THE GAME

Keatgsr07

Keatgsr07

Get Kuran out of the game and let's take it to Hernandez (foul trouble).

Keatgsr07

We need to right this ship here, not let ourselves fall behind again.

GET BACK TO WORKING THE BALL AROUND THE FLOOR.

Btw, Kuran is totally that kid who scores and then every time he touches the ball in the near term takes a shot.

they have all their players, we don't

Keatgsr07

we should be CRUSHING this team

Keatgsr07

we need a dunk

Keatgsr07

oh no

Keatgsr07

Unless someone miraculously steps up to be a threat off the dribble, the ENTIRE season will be "what if." I think someone mentioned earlier, but Valpo is one of the best handful of teams we will play and maybe the best defensively, and we are three days out from losing EC so we haven't ha...

Holy shit this is stressful.

I love our D.

That -18 is an error, it was up yesterday while no one issued Tuesday lines yet. I don't bet on the Rams, and I'm not recommending anyone does, but -1 is a TOTAL URI line! Vegas giving us credit for the "locker room rally" effect. Key player is out and the team plays at another level/extra...

Keatgsr07

No place . This one is an unusual one from me. While it only applies to 5% of the audience in attendance (and probably not one reader here), it's important for the integrity of the college game experience. At several points during the second half, while Rhody was persevering without Matthews, yet s...

Keatgsr07

Line isn't out yet, but it should tell us a lot. I'm hoping for the "locker room/comradery" effect to show up in the line, that will add some needed confidence.

With EC, I'd guess it would open at -1.5 Rams. Without him I'm hoping it's no greater than a +5 Rams, a URI line.

Keatgsr07

This team will still have a decent shot at the dance? Really, you actually think that?

Completely RIFan. I still don't even believe it, hasn't settled in yet.

Keatgsr07

I see something similar to last year too. Flashes of really good basketball, flashes of really sloppy basketball, and slightly above avg basketball taking the majority. I do agree that we have talent on this team outside of EC, but it will take time for the guys to learn to run an offense effectivel...

Keatgsr07

If EC is out for the year, what does our season look like, realistically?

That's not going to bode well

Keatgsr07

This is still a strong powerful team folks. Let's not toss the towel 20m into the season! sorry, but if EC is gone for any extended period of time, you cant realistically keep the same expectations for the season, he's that good and that important to the team. Yea, I'm all about optimism, but ignor...

Same. Total shock.

We all think it... Acl

Keatgsr07

The guys better shake this off or AU could be up 5 by half.

Keatgsr07

Team is lost right now. Speechless.

Keatgsr07

Oh God

Hassan shed a lot of weight, wow. Almost too lean?

I'm not sure that Vegas releases betting lines for games involving Patriot League teams. Many of the smaller conferences won't have a line with their games unless it's tournament time. That's so crazy to me, never heard anything like that but I suppose it makes sense being that we can't find a line...

We could totally win this game. Focus.

Looked like Coach Hurley said something that Bembry agreed with after the foul call on Martin, he reached back toward Hurley like "no kidding, these refs are horrible."

Looked like a makeup call to me.

Keatgsr07

Would be crushing to lose this game ahead of the tournament.

Keatgsr07

PRT, re offensive program, agree.

Keatgsr07

Any idea if this game will be broadcast via live stream?

Keatgsr07

we need an offensive coach.. Davidson and Dayton showed how effective a motion offense can be.. We continue to stand around watching guards that don't handle the ball well dribble dribble dribble... Don't want to play this team again.. Ha, I truly hope you mean like an assistant who's focused on th...

Keatgsr07

I think it may be the lack of consistency that is most frustrating about this team. They have sparks of absolute great basketball and then complete washes other times. I am hoping this is just growing pains and we will see more consistent play in the future. Overall, I am happy with what the team h...
