Re: State House
Somebody tell the GA we have a team?
I will give Raimondo some credit. The governor was actually following Rhody's NCAA run with several tweets and made a bet with the Oregon Governor. I hope she likes Gansett and Del's.

Re: State House
Their small batch stuff is not bad. Oregon has one of the best beer scenes in the country, so surely it won't be the best they've ever had, but what she sent isn't terrible at all.

Re: State House
......couple of suggestions; team reps leave behind road maps/GPS info to get to the campus for games next season.....invites for the Legislature to occupy ALL the boxes for a game next season, not just the Presidents box......make sure any Legislative invites do include weekend games, when students are in session, so that a bus tour of down the line housing can be included.....others?

Re: State House
As I mentioned in the URI Athletics board, it seems the new Senate President is open to help the PawSox build a new stadium. The Speaker of the House had previously supported the downtown Providence stadium deal. We all know the General Assembly supported Ri taxpayers buying and renovating the DDC and subsidizing its operations every year. If the state has all this money available for facilities that mainly benefit private concerns (PawSox, P-Bruins. PC Friars), then it should be able to help its own state university. It is interesting to note that the state's funding for the improved McCoy stadium in the late 90's was used just a few years later to help persuade legislators for help in paying for the Ryan Center.

Re: Team to be Honored 4pm Thursday @ State House
If Dan is at the State House today he can't be in DC meeting about the GTown job. That is a good thing.
Speculation is GTown will announce new coach tomorrow.

That's what I was thinking if GT zero in on him at first they may have gotten him now the longer it takes the more confident I am DH is our coach going forward

I know my state rep was happy the team was stopping by the state house today, though he didn't know anything about it until I mentioned it to him last night.

Green to DC flight is an hour or so, and flights go
out often.
Besides, where is it in stone that Georgetown has until
Friday to hire anyone?
Didn't they just commission a firm to help with their search?

This seems very private, I would expect this to be a big deal for the school.

I saw him there myself. Thorr's tweet photo is also proof. Entire team here and were each introduced along with Dan, President Dooley, and Thorr. A number of congratulatory resolutions passed with several standing ovations.ATPTourFan wrote:What is your source that says Dan is there now?

Maybe Dan could impress some legislators to help finance a BB practice facility......
This certainly doesn't seem like a coach that is ready to leave.

Re: Team to be Honored 4pm Thursday @ State House
Dan made a joke to the House about the GA authorizing a 2m increase to the URI basketball budget. Thanked the team for its accomplishment and thanked the staff, university, and legislators for their support. Commented that he hoped to be there again next year. Dan brought his wife Andrea and two sons along with him. All the players appeared to be there along with ARD, Bjorn, and Dooley. All were individually introduced by name. They then went from the house to the senate for a similar ceremony/resolution and I believe visited the governor afterward.

I'll bet that's not a joke. I'll bet that's what he wants.
Maybe that's why we haven't heard anything about the extension yet......we were told we would know this week....but nothing yet

I was there and they weren't there from what I could see. They also were not introduced by name as the others in attendance.
