No matter what the actual facts are, it's a bad look no matter how this shakes out.

I would imagine Dan has reached out to our recent commits and hopefully reassured them things will be OK.
No doubt bad PR, but also seems to be a bit blown out of proportion... that's all my point is.

Depends on all the circumstances. Dawan Robinson was arrested for resisting an arrest over ten years ago (2005) at a Narragansett bar. Was suspended a few games.
That was the last night Black Point was opened. I remember seeing that whole thing unfold.

NRF I know you are knowledgeable on recruiting. Not sure why you feel you know more than others about this situation. Stating everything on here is false comes across as an emotional Rhody fan. Your comment above that Ty was trying to extract a kid and it escalated when the cops got involved is not accurate. The cops were already involved when Ty showed up. It escalated when Ty got involved. He started swearing who the F*** are you etc. That is a fact witnessed by several people. The other information I have posted is factual.

I am assuming you don't work for the University and don't know the process that has to be followed for termination of an employee so your comment that Ty would've already been fired is not accurate. I don't think he will be fired but you posted like an expert and slammed everyone else's comments as false.

Also just to correct other posts - the report is that the player struck the officer in the face. It didn't say he punched the officer in the face. That can be a big difference with regards to intent and charges pressed.

this. PC troll wanted to act high and mighty, and I corrected them.

Also, the subject of my post was college basketball players getting in trouble with the law...in a thread about a college basketball player getting in trouble with the law. Technically my post was on topic.

If the fight involved strictly members of the team, then they aren't a completely happy group I guess.

Hopefully this will pass without much further incident.

What I have said and what I continue to say is that there's more to the story than what is being reported. I'm not going to share what I've been told because this isn't the place. I am aware of HR practices as part of my actual work professionally deals directly with legalities of hiring and firing practices. Only one side is being reported on and there's always 3 sides to every story as my father would say. Much of what has been reported from what I've been told by people who were there, not staff or player involved, is that there's more to this story then just what the SKPD is giving to the media. There's been far too many people coming on this board being slanderous and trying to defame one of our coaches along with trying to get the player's name... why do we need to know which player. Whether it's the last guy on the bench or the star of a program they should all be treated fairly and legally... i.e. Not having their name dragged through the mud like Coach Boswell is having happen to him at this moment.

I will state again, are we sure that this wasn't an overreaction by SKPD and the coach gave himself up rather than the player getting into trouble? If that turns out to be the case I say good on the coach for trying to keep his player out of harms way.

That's my 35 cents and I won't be commenting any further.

I think if you went to our board, you'd see that we acknowledged that this type of thing could and does happen everywhere. You guys just drew the short straw this time around. It's smart that everyone in the media and even keyboard tough guys are mostly reserving judgment until the facts are known.

Boswell got his degree from a very highly ranked school. Much more so than URI.

Let's let this play out. URI players weren't the only ones involved. Let's just say the rivalry just got more interesting. That's all I'm saying and this is my last post on this subject until the facts are revealed. I will in no way give any names to anybody. The PC trolls might want to reserve comments.

yup, thats been my stance from the start.

Boswell got arrested because he didnt walk away.

If the player had done anything worse than causing a disturbance/drunk in public he would've been arrested as well. This is nothing more than drunk kid does drunk kid thing and he'll have a fine to pay, student affairs to answer to and coach Hurley's team punishment.

An assistant coach gets arrested and you think the Projo shouldn't write a story? Have a clue.

There's a best-case and worst-case scenario. Boswell's charges are minor; if I was him I'd fear my boss more than the cops at this point.
If the player is also charged with a misdemeanor then he'll probably be suspended for a few games. But if he's charged with felony assault on a cop ... that wouldn't be good.

reading comprehension must not be a strong point.

I was calling out the freaking out because it was 2nd page in the main section and not just on the sports page.

It is probably a nothingburger story without the coach being involved. That's what makes it a news story. Just wish that the local paper would have more details.

Da Process - "like we didn't expect the PC Journal to pass up a chance to run with something negative about URI."
Let's vote on how you would "comprehend" that:
A) He is critical of the paper for running an article on URI Ast Coach being arrested.
B) He is critical of the paper having the article on the 2nd page of the main section and not on the sports page.

I vote A. My reading comprehension interprets "a chance to RUN something.." to mean running the article or publishing the article. Not where the article is in the paper.

As much as we all like info, the story as published so far leaves lots of vastly different possibilities. It could be that the player saying his arm and accidentally struck the officer, which is why no charges have been filed. Then the coach jumped in trying to help, and overreacted when he was arrested. This would probably readily in the case being filed for six months or a year, with the charges dropped if there are no further incidents.

If it's something worse, we'll all know soon enough.

I think this is pretty spot on. My only concern here is that if it is the former, more benign scenario, that the adults involved (particularly in the SKPD) can do the right thing and not play this up for reasons that have much more to do with seeking attention for themselves than with fairness.

What I have said and what I continue to say is that there's more to the story than what is being reported. I'm not going to share what I've been told because this isn't the place.

That's my 35 cents and I won't be commenting any further.
Well. it's a drag you won't be commenting further, because what this board REALLY needs more of is, more people coming on to say, "I know more, but I'm not tellin'"...because that is really helpful and entertaining at the same time.

There are 80 'guests' currently reading this forum. These are not URI fans. Who knows who they might be? But I agree that this is not the place for details or for names. The legal process must play out. Hopefully they get to the truth. All we can say is there's more to the story, which unfortunately cannot be discussed here.

I guess I agree...what I'm saying is, we need to have more and more people coming on here to SAY, "I know more, but I'm not telling" To see people post this (the fact that they know more and ain't tellin') is very useful and entertaining...a great informative value add for content here. So, folks, if you know something and can't say, PLEASE keep posting that (and don't forget to say, you "can't say") :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think this is pretty spot on. My only concern here is that if it is the former, more benign scenario, that the adults involved (particularly in the SKPD) can do the right thing and not play this up for reasons that have much more to do with seeking attention for themselves than with fairness.
You want to talk about fairness? How about stopping taking veiled shots at a group of people you don't know.

Are you directing that at me? And if you are, who/what are you referring to?
