Josh Ayeni has reportedly been suspended for 3 games due to “violation of team rules.” That team is likely to have so many regrets when they look back at this season.

They lead the Bonnies by 4 at the half, 41-37. This game makes me appreciate how well URI plays defense. Both teams have had numerous wide open looks.

Kind of interesting to read the SLU board, a lot of the fans seem to think the players are innocent.

Also cmon Bonnie’s, start playing like a tournament team!

Stan saved our season in that game last year, coming out of nowhere and blocking what looked like a wide-open layup at the buzzer and forcing overtime.

If he never did another thing, he'd still be one of my all-time favorites just for that one play.

Davidson is a legit number 2. Disciplined and well coached. If we don't shoot the ball well against them, we'll lose. Regarding the Bonnies, as good as they are, Adams and Mobley seem to disappear at the worst times.

I find the reactions of Saint Louis fans on their message board not at all interesting and completely predictable. No one knows the facts outside of the case, but the default of fans in these situations tends to be, “of course our boys are innocent, we know bitches lie anyway.”

It seems like a long time ago that Bona fans were all upset about anyone saying Rhode Island has a better backcourt than them. They’ll have to work to get into position to get that first round bye.

Davidson is a three point happy team as the Cats put in 14-33. Their freshman guard from Boston, Kellan Grady, alone made 10 attempts - he took ten treys and two lay-ups. To win against Davidson, URI must shoot the ball well and play their usual tight defense, limit the perimeter offense. Davidson basically uses a six man rotation, so the key is to get them ragged enough to commit turnovers. They had 11 against the Bonnies. We need to pressure them to commit 15+.

These wins last night helped increase URI's OOC strength of schedule to #3. The staff did a great job in selecting its opponents.

The thing about Davidson...is that we are not a good matchup for them.
Yes Aldridge will score against us and presents a problem, probably more Cyril and even Akele in that game, and less Berry.

That said, a team with a young back court, average athleticism, no depth and that wants to play a finesse game is a bad matchup against these Rhody Rams. I can't see how their back court handles our pressure for a full 40 minutes and comes out on top.

This.

I'm not worried about Davidson. Our guards are too good and too athletic for them. They rely on perimeter points and they aren't about to run around us

We are about to embark on a stretch very similar to what the Bonnies just had. 4 out of 5 conference games on the road, although the only common opponent is Dayton. It'll be interesting to see how we come out of that stretch compared to how the Bonnies did.

You are very right. URI has started off the A-10 schedule with a very favorable schedule. Bonnies on the other hand have not. SBU has already had to play at Dayton, URI, and Davidson.

That’s generally not the default of fans in cases that involve sexual assault. Most people realize that’s a pretty serious accusation. Remember what happened with Chris Jones of Louisville a few years ago? Well turns out “bitches lie” sometimes. I’m not saying these SLU players are outstanding model citizens but suspending players for one and half to two years seems really odd if the players are actually guilty.

Not to derail this thread, but the finances seem like firing Ollie this year would be extremely difficult.

UConn, whether they like it or not, has committed to being a football school, at the peril of their basketball program. Football drives the bus there.

Because of that, they just paid (or still owe) Diaco 3.4 million as a buyout after he got fired and broke the bank.

Randy Edsall came back on an incentive-laden deal, which to me tells me they don’t have a lot of capital laying around.

Kevin Ollie is signed through 2022 and if he were fired this year, UConn owes him 10.75 million. 2 million of which would have to come from that cash strapped state.

Also, their 2 best players have been hurt all year. This would be like URI fans chanting fire Hurley during the EC/Hass injury year.

As an aside, UConn is the only job that scares me if open. Dan does command a 1.5 million dollar buy out, and if he’s leaving he’s not going to want an incentive laden deal.

Based on finances I’m just not sure UConn can afford to fire anyone for the next year or so at least. Rough optics to pay out 15-16 mil in dead money over 2 years before you even hire the new basketball coach - especially when the one you’re firing won you a national title in the not so distant past.

Hurley's next move will be to a cartel school -- nothing less. As usual, the Storrs Leg-humpers' fans are delusional if they think UConn could poach him.

Consider:

UConn has a poorly-maintained arena -- two poorly-maintained arena if you count the Hartford Civic Center -- and a spoiled-rotten fan base. Also, our league is down this year, but historically the Atlantic 10 is better than the AFC or KFC or whatever the hell league the Storrs Leg-humpers play in. UConn would be little more than a lateral move.

After leading by 19 points at the break, Alabama in the second half got in a dog fight with a Mississippi State team that managed to tie game with less than 7 minutes remaining and the contest was neck and neck to the closing seconds before the Crimson Tide secured the win, 68-62.

There is NO way that Hurley would consider UCONN or the AAC Conference. Good grief, people are way underestimating his marketability of they think that is remotely possible.
As RI Red said, he would go to a P5 school and a rather highly ranked P5 school at that.

In a close battle throughout, Nevada held off a strong Boise State effort to beat the Broncos, 74-68. Nevada retains their unblemished conference record intact at 7-0. Boise State stands in second place at 5-2 and the two teams will meet again in Boise on Feb. 14. Key question is whether the Mountain West Conference will get both these teams into the NCAAT?

No Sunday action in the A-10.

Among URI OOC opponents:

In a battle of the two MAAC leaders Canisius visits Iona. 1 PM. ESPN3. In the first round of this rivalry, Iona fell, 85-78, so it's natural to expect the Gaels to use their home court advantage to take sole possession of first place in the MAAC.

UNC Asheville at Liberty. 2 PM. UNCA is struggling a bit and this contest will be a challenge, but a win would put them back in contention for the Big South crown.

Virginia at Wake Forest. 6 PM. On ESPNU. Virginia is unbeaten in the ACC and Wake has won only one game. Cavaliers will likely get their 18th win of the season.

Iona lost to Canisius at home. Trailed basically the whole game before cutting it to 1 with about 0:10 left, but couldn't close it out. Canisius is all alone in first place in the MAAC, as they appear to also be in the midst of their own post-Baron renaissance.

UNCA got a win today, blowing out Liberty at Liberty. UNCA keeps pace as one of five teams in a tie for second place in the Big South at 5-3. Those five trail Radford, who fell at Campbell today to go to 6-2 in the conference.

As with the game at Dayton, I think there is motivation to beat Fordham. Hurley will use the reminder of the loss to them last year to keep his players focused. Hard to believe that Fordham's win in Kingston last February 15th was the last time Rhody lost to an A-10 opponent.
