…….love the home openers……should tell us something early where we stand…….gotta get both against UMess……..go Rhody…….looking forward to this being back in the RC…….with many penciled work sheets, I keep coming up with 10-8…….

[reef]

Nice I wonder what NBC universal platforms is ?? We gonna need a peacock subscription??

[ace]

It would have been nice to have students on campus for a Dayton game. La Salle, GW, and St. Joe’s are the others that fall over winter break.

[neil]

I agree with you Ace about the importance of students being on campus for games. A big part of our home court advantage is taken away. Hopefully, the students can show up for our first three home games. The more winning we do in December might improve attendance.

If masks required, attendance will be woeful regardless...jmo

[Rhodymob05]

Good point. I can't see more than 80% capacity all season.

The Ryan Center also is somehow mandating masks for an upcoming concert.

Yea, making drunk college kids wear masks after not going to a concert in two years seems like a great idea. I can’t see there being any problems with that at all.

Good luck to security that night.

If Covid transmission remains high in RI, URI should limit attendance at basketball games. Mask wearing is just an added precaution. Vaccination provides protection from getting seriously sick. You can still get the virus and transmit it to others even if you are asymptomatic. College basketball is not that important. Unless you have some medical condition that prevents you from getting vaccinated, not getting vaccinated is a selfish decision. Let's quit the niceties and call it what it is.

So the vaccine is not a vaccine? More like a flu shot? Maybe you get it, maybe you don't? And if you do, it's not as bad? Pffffft.

[DeanDome88]

Two of the better teams to watch in the conference will not be coming to Kingston. This schedule stinks.

[section(105)]

…….so there is an upcoming season ticket holder event, on campus…….with some food and drink…….and cause it is in the RC…….with masks…….going, should be an interesting take……

Aaaaand just like that, concert is cancelled.

Makes me wonder if basketball season will now be looked at and modified…

"Pffffft" pretty much sums it up.
Gonna be a mad dash for boosters.

Inching closer and closer to not having to worry about "asking" to roll over tix...

What are we 7-8 weeks away? My guess is no fans... Ain't nothing going to happen that's going to change that... apparently not even if 100% of the country was vaxxed tomorrow...just doesn't even matter....

[RamStock]

No need to get out the ketchup. There is no chance of having over 6,200 in attendance with masks, a very weak schedule and a middle of the pack team.

[Rhody72]

...

As I said, those who could get the vaccine and don't are selfish people, they can't see beyond how it affects themselves. They are not smart enough to understand or care how viruses mutate. This fits the profile.

“As I said, those who could get the vaccine and don't are selfish people, they can't see beyond how it affects themselves. They are not smart enough to understand or care how viruses mutate. This fits the profile.”

Based on this comment, you also do not understand how viruses mutate. It’s less likely the virus will mutate if vaccinated, but if one can get it after vaccination, then it can mutate. As long as it exists that is the case.

Good to know you've got "profiles" to put people in... hopefully you find that helpful/comforting in some way.

…….yes, from Athletics, but there seems to be some full season holders that did not get……

My understanding is the bulk of it will be outside next to the Ryan Center and if people want to go in for things like the locker room tours they can at that time

Yes, the food and drink, meeting the players and coaches, etc. are all outside. If the weather isn't good, it will be rescheduled.

[Rhody72]

With the postponement of the Polo concert, it appears the regular attendance at URI basketball games will not happen until the pandemic subsides, This is my projection of where things are going.

Omigosh...is this Carnac the Magnificent???

[Jersey77]

I still plan on attending several home and away games, regardless of the requirements. I always look forward to my Rhode Island excursions,missed them last season. At least getting tickets shouldn’t be an issue.

Only someone who is too immature to understand the seriousness of the pandemic would suggest there was anything negative toward "the team, players and their families, or the fans" in my post. Well, at least the mature fans.

[section(105)]

………me thinks we all need the games to start, so that we can then beat on each other up discussing the basketball……..like, “ why call a TO after we just scored………”

[ramster]

Anything but that time out discussion

As RR2 stated about the season ticket event………

[Obadiah]

If Covid is the reason for the postponement, then why is the Stephen Colbert show at Ryan on October 2 as part of Homecoming still on?

[ramster]

Good question and point.

[JimSidd]

If Covid is the reason for the postponement, then why is the Stephen Colbert show at Ryan on October 2 as part of Homecoming still on?

Probably because some portion of that whopping $70 ticket price is revenue for the school.

I think that's still cheaper than the filthy rapper, isn't it?

No idea. I’m nowhere close to his target demographic.

[Rhody15]

Man, less than 2 months until the season and only 1-2 threads posted in daily it seems.

Obviously, a lot more important things in the world have been going on that have peaked people’s interests. But still, I would’ve thought there’s be more activity this close to the season.

So little interest in this program just a few years after back to back tourney appearances.

Let’s hope we get back to that soon enough!

[section(105)]

……..hey 15, I am all in……..was set for the season ticket thing last nite, but that got pulled…….looking for some Kearney Blue color masks……..got my vax card ready…….too bad no beers in the seats cause that way I could no mask…….just win, against whoever we play……..think it is gonna be decent season……not sure how to measure that…….10-8 conference and NIT home game……..go Rhody…….

[Rhodymob05]

I’m startin to get Rhody basketball fever. Lots of uncertainty but also a new exciting season to come.
