They look annoyed that they were forced to come out and play another half of basketball together.

Cox just called time out, and the entire team took off to the opposite end of the bench. What am I watching here?

Unless they pull off a miracle can wave postseason hopes goodbye. They look frustrated on the court which is never a good thing.

We, as a collective, are struggling. From top to bottom. Not very encouraging. Everyone needs to take a hard look in the mirror, or we are in trouble.
Missed FT’s, layups, mid-range, 3P’s, assignments...just bad basketball.

Did Cox lose this team with how he handled the Tate situation and Dana's subsequent leaving of the team? Certainly looks like it

I left at halftime. This isn’t a big deal anyway. I’m sure someone will point out that we can go 15-2 down the stretch. More likely we are under .500 in conference. We have no shooters and need to recruit them fast.

Been hanging around online since 1996. This wouldn't be the first time I have seen a URI coach completely lose the confidence of the team.
It makes you wonder what has been going on behind the scenes since the MT game.

It’s called being a bad team. You are right in terms of me not being someone who could predict the future. I said they win this game.

Tyrese is playing well.
Coaching has been bad.
Play has been bad.
What else is there to be said?
Nobody is getting canned.
Nobody can be benched.
They have to figure it, or rollover and die like some of their fans are doing.

Hey, at least this team is learning DISCIPLINE and knows who is in charge. That’s something.

Benching Fatts May have been the best adjustment made all day. Let’s play BIG.

Well, statistically speaking, they doubled their point output in the first 10 mins of the 2nd half, from the first 20 mins of the game.

2 for 21 for two guards. I do not recall Tommy/Silk ever having as bad a shooting performance as that.
...but my feeling is any comeback is going to start w/ Defense. Below standard today.

Just terrible guard play. They really sucked all day long. The team got better with Fatts on the bench. Even though he leads the a-10 in scoring...

What happened to Dowtin? He stinks. The return of Fatts 2018-19 is upon us

Good lord, you'll contort everything to give Cox credit. It's not an adjustment when the player is sitting because of fouls

For me, Jeff has been the biggest disappointment this season. Who gets better, better, better each season and then gets worse his senior season? This should have been his year to show everyone he deserved A-10 1st team accolades.

Kinda need another guard to play on this team I think.... kinda hard to be good with only two guys who can dribble.

Don’t mean to be that guy worrying about their personal lives. But their body language looked terrible at brown and today on the court. What are they doing off the court?
I have a bad feeling Cox is losing his players and that Tate leaving destroyed their confidence.

Re: 1/5 | Richmond | 12:00PM (ESPN+/YurView)
Well, Brown was a fluke. This isn't a fluke. This is quickly turning into a "see you next year" kind of situation.
At least we do have an entirely new backcourt coming in, and a veteran shooting guard in Sheppard will likely be available. Lack of one more solid lunch pail, hard hat, back to the basket, box out, front court player will hurt though.

Re: 1/5 | Richmond | 12:00PM (ESPN+/YurView)
I said about a month ago that it might be an issue that Dowtin and Fatts both need to have control of the offense to be at their best and because of that the sum might never be as great as the parts. That was working before because we had good Fatts. Now that we have Fatts from last year back everything has grinded to a halt.DanInAZ wrote: ↑4 years agoFor me, Jeff has been the biggest disappointment this season.

Re: 1/5 | Richmond | 12:00PM (ESPN+/YurView)
I think it is probably time for some changes - lineups, minutes distributions, offensive and defensive approach/philosophy. Basically anything they can think of to tinker with, I would turn that knob just to see what happens. There’s nothing to lose now. Everything is about trying to catch lightning in a bottle two months from now. It is apparent that the way we are currently doing things is not going to suddenly become enough.

I can't believe what I just heard coach Cox say on the post game show. "I thought our defense played really well."
