Ooohhhhhh could be Stanford round 2!!

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 9 years ago

So we would go to Stanford if we win?

Stanford revenge match later this week.

Stanford in the 2nd round let's go....didn't care about NIT much until now....I will never forgive that school

URI96 · Unread post by **URI96** » 9 years ago

Long plane ride for the second round which I don't particularly like.

RF1 · Unread post by **RF1** » 9 years ago

No students in Kingston as it is spring break this week.

ace · Unread post by **ace** » 9 years ago

I love the way Iona plays. Don't overlook them- this game should be fun.

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 9 years ago

In a few Hours we should be able to redeem our season tix for the NIT game Tuesday on ESPNU.

adam914 · Unread post by **adam914** » 9 years ago

Yeah Iona is a good team, for sure.

I want Stanford in round 2!!!!

REVENGE!!!

There MAY be 3,000 people there Tuesday night.

I am very disappointed that the Stanford game won't be at URI.

A chance to play Stanford

i live about 5 minutes from iona... saw them play alot this year... they love to run... it should be ininteresting game as they put up a shot like every 12 seconds lol

Sweep The Leg · Unread post by **Sweep The Leg** » 9 years ago

I wish they made us the 2 and Stanford the 3. Imagine if Stanford had to come to the Ryan Center? That would have been entertaining. 17 years of pent up fan frustration to be let out.

Looking forward to Tuesday, go UC Davis!

Rhodygirl2 · Unread post by **Rhodygirl2** » 9 years ago

Went from excitement of getting the home game to "f'ing Stanford" in1 second while my sister said "motherf**kers" and picked up the closest item nearest to her and hucked it at the TV. Luckily it was a hat and did no damage.

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 9 years ago

quick check shows 3 common opponents....

Wacked Delaware St and lost to Mason and Massachusetts.....

Also lost to Jim Baron.....

RF1 · Unread post by **RF1** » 9 years ago

If Stanford gets knocked out and URI advances, Rhody would host another game. UC-Davis is just a bit west of Sacramento and not all that far from Palo Alto. It will be a big deal for them to play Stanford. You can be sure they will want to win.

Sweep The Leg · Unread post by **Sweep The Leg** » 9 years ago

Richmond is now added to my teams I dislike and especially Kendall Anthony, who is an uglier version of Kevin Hart and possibly shorter.

Rhodygirl2 · Unread post by **Rhodygirl2** » 9 years ago

Good thing I taped this because I was in such a blind rage at seeing Stanford in the same bracket section I missed everything else and now have to go back and watch

PeterRamTime · Unread post by **PeterRamTime** » 9 years ago

Uhh Iona Rhode Island is not going to be a high scoring game

Lets hope not, cause that would be right into Iona's strength.

ramfan85 · Unread post by **ramfan85** » 9 years ago

Would we prefer to go to Stanford or have another home game?

McRam · Unread post by **McRam** » 9 years ago

As much as I want revenge on Stanford, this is a royal f...ing. Emotinally and physically drained team that needs to play in two days on Tues and if we win, travel across the country for a game on Thursday. I wonder how many of the glory teams traveled across country and won that game. Compare that to Richmond, who is home for all.

This format is beyond stupid. The bottom line is that they want a Pac 10 team in Madison Square Garden.

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 9 years ago

don't care about Stanford.....and UC Davis is not a cupcake, won conference 25 wins....

I want home games.....any chance to show off our building on TV is good business.

BPR2010 · Unread post by **BPR2010** » 9 years ago

Game is on ESPNU for those wondering...

ramfan85 · Unread post by **ramfan85** » 9 years ago

I want a home game, too. I'd change my mind if it was a to-the-death cage match.

Well first off I don't think the game would be Thursday, where did you see that? I see Round 2 as being Friday-Monday, so for all we know it could be Monday.

Tough break playing on st pats w/o students

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 9 years ago

Went on GORHODY and they're not selling tickets yet.
Iona is a wild team, with some really fine players.
The good news is, they don't play much defense.
Should be a fun game.
Who the hell wants to go to the West coast to get screwed playing Stanford?
Whose bright idea was that?

BPR2010 · Unread post by **BPR2010** » 9 years ago

Normally the 2nd round NIT games don't begin until Friday at the earliest, at least in years past.

Just win the next one......

if we beat Stanford,unless colarado state loses its another long trip

adam914 · Unread post by **adam914** » 9 years ago

I am always impressed at some of our fans ability to only look for the negative in a situation and get unreasonably pissed about it.

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 9 years ago

Iona is also no cupcake....26-8 and MAAC can be tough.....

I wanted that program in the A10 a few years back actually.

Blue Man · Unread post by **Blue Man** » 9 years ago

I'm jacked. I hope my noodle voice is gone by Tuesday. The nice thing about our program right now is that this is EXCITING. Freshman/Sophomore teams SHOULD be in this tournament. This is how you get better. This is how you build for the future. This tourney isn't for veteran teams with a terrible coach trying to pad their win totals. I AM SO IN LOVE WITH EVERYTHING URI RIGHT NOW.

Also great for TJ and Gil who have shown what seniors should look like on the floor these last few games..awesome for them to get some post season play.

Let's get back to NYC in a couple weeks. F train to Jay Street for Pacos Tacos shots.

Season ticket holder, ticket window has been open for w few minutes, she scored our seats confirmed....

Bee311 · Unread post by **Bee311** » 9 years ago

You can select your season tickets for the game now. I just bought mine.

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 9 years ago

So, Adam, you think going to Stanford is nothing to bitch about?
Really?
Also, went on GO RHODY after they sent an email to go ahead and order.
To order additional tickets, you have to wait and call the box office
tomorrow.
WTF!

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 9 years ago

Prices look good if they are accurate.....we advertise the heck out of this we might actually fill the lower tier......$20 and $10

Season ticket holders of course need to step up with students gone, this should be a decent game against a good team.

Billyboy78 · Unread post by **Billyboy78** » 9 years ago

With students being on break, what is everybody's expectations for attendance for this game?

rodfromcranston · Unread post by **rodfromcranston** » 9 years ago

3,500 tops.

At least we are the best at something!

PeterRamTime · Unread post by **PeterRamTime** » 9 years ago

Iona will really be tough. If they were in the dance they'd be threatening to do some Cinderella shit. But they aren't going to like going against our defense.
We are probably in the easiest bracket. Still there are some good teams in this tournament. All of the one seeds except Richmond are tournament teams in my eyes. Especially Colorado State and Temple. No question. Miami destroyed Duke at Duke!

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 9 years ago

At $10 tix pricepoint we need to work the local High School athletic depts selling a fun night out.....

Wish there was a way to give freebies to local kids but I believe NIT controls all tickets distribution not URI am I correct?

I don't believe group sales can be done it's $10 or you don't get in the building....??
