Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
you interview Green tonight? wow busy week for RhodeIslandRams.com!!
Can you ask him if he really did trash talk Coleman when dunking in his face? And if he did, what did he say? I heard a rumor at the time that came through the Kaull family that Kenny told Coleman, "that's how we do it in the A10."

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
i always heard similar rumors about that game, that Sherm Douglas and DC were trash talking our guys about the big bad Big East and us being the lowly A10....so it wouldn't surprise me when the tide turned in our favor if one of our guys threw it in their faces. Between Silk, Tommy and Kenny we were not short on guys that had cajones!!

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
I loved that team, my 2nd favorite after the '78 team. I wouldn't mind just hearing him reminisce a little bit.

REQUEST for video...and....Yup he said it.
OK, so two things:
1. does anyone have any vids of Kenny playing I could have/see? He also would LOVE a copy of the Syracuse game if anyone has it!
2. Yes, Kenny said the 'this is how we do it in the A10' but as he puts it 'with more colorful language'
You don't want to miss this interview, he's a fun guy.

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
As monumental as the Kansas game was for us.....to me our greatest win was that over Syracuse!
It came over a big east power and I dislike the big east immensely.

I have the Syracuse game on DVD. It's EPIC! I can send you a copy in exchange for your excellent interviews!RhodeIslandRams wrote:does anyone have any vids of Kenny playing I could have/see? He also would LOVE a copy of the Syracuse game if anyone has it!
PM me if you are interested in any other DVDs. I sort of put together, with the help of many other Rhody fans on this board, a fairly complete collection a few years back of the games that matter, and some that don't so much.

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
Ah ATP YOU are the guy who did that, I knew someone did.
I'd love to 'trade' for a DVD and I'll make a copy for Kenny, who says his kids don't believe he ever played Syracuse lol

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
I can send two copies. No big deal. PM me your mailing address.
It's a great honor to hook up Kenny Green with a video for him to share with his kids and enjoy one of his shining moments.

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
My alltime favorite is Cuttino telling Paul Pierce "there is more [brothers] on this court right now than you've seen in your whole life." (I'm sure he mistakenly believed that Pierce was from Kansas and not L.A., but still.)Running Ram wrote:you interview Green tonight? wow busy week for RhodeIslandRams.com!!

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
Best Part of the Alley Oop dunk from Kenny was watching 12,000 Duke Fans going nuts rooting for us. We ended up having a home game at the Dean Dome.

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
Anyway we could get some of the games up on YouTube or another video sharing site? Are there still copyrights in effect for the older games? As a younger fan it would be really interesting to watch some of the older teams play.

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
I'm not going to start putting complete games on YouTube. First of all, I don't think my YouTube account would allow anything past 10 minutes. Secondly, I'm not going to mess with CBS' rights to their NCAA Tournament telecasts. Anyone else feel free!
PM me if anyone wants to get their hands on some of these DVDs. Commercials are edited out and there are usually two games per DVD, in logical pairs.

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
it is a wonderful collection of games. the only two or three games from the last decade I would add,
URI/USC to open the ryan center
URI/st joes during the undefeated season.. mostly because the ryan center rocked that entire game
UNC/URI NIT semifinal. just a good game that espn paid the refs off in the end
URI/USC to open the ryan center

Maybe URI @ Duke in 2008. You could hear a pin drop in Cameron when Jimmy was nailing all those 3's in the 2nd half.urirx wrote:it is a wonderful collection of games. the only two or three games from the last decade I would add,

I think the DVD of the 88 Duke game has a pregame interview with Steve Nelson and hilites of that putback he missed at the end of that 78 gm

Re: Questions for: Kenny Green?
I've seen scant amounts of footage of the 78 URI Duke game. I saw a few seconds of it years ago....and that's about it.
John Feinstein wrote a book about the 78 Duke team...and he devotes a few pages to the URI game.
Btw, that 78 PC URI ECAC championship game was epic. I've seen crazy pics of the postgame celebration of Sly holding the MVP trophy and URI players sitting on the rim. Great memory!
