Real good road win. And, short handed, too.

Props to the players, Archie and staff. Well done!

Very happy for them. Hope they remember this and build off it.

Go Rhody!

Wow. Pleasant surprise. Big bright spot with Zek FINALLY getting going. Hopefully he can get some confidence and consistency going now. I think Green being out was what this team needed honestly. I feel like his body language and complaining to the refs progressively got worse each game. I also feel like he was one of the players Arch was talking about in the last presser. Maybe the illness was really a "rest and reset" by Miller, who knows. Just nice to finally have a decent game. I'm also not going to get fooled by this one. GW looked pretty damn bad. Oh well. Onto the next one.

78, that’s a well rounded game. Good pick up.

We needed it being shorthanded and the young guys having an off night statistically (I couldn’t watch tonight either but did get to listen from near the end of the half).

This game officially has turned us into a “could win by 15 or lose by 15 to any team in the conference, home or away, who the hell knows” type of team.

No expectations for me any game moving forward!

Hell of a game by Zek.

Happy for Weston getting the start and having a productive game. He’s had a tough couple years.

Great response by this team tonight after the last game.

Nice turnaround by the staff and team.

Hopefully this effort will carry forward.

Every win on the road in this conference is a good one.

It is nice to feel good again after a Rhody game.

Who was that team that played GW tonight.

Best defensive performance of the season after what looked like the same old same old first 4 minutes.

Best game as a Ram for Brandon Weston. He has probably been our most willing defender all year. Made good decisions on offense and his body language was great all game. Was competing. Rubbed off on everyone.

Zek shows the ceiling many of us saw in him. Hopefully we can see more of that.

Still not sure what I just watched but I’m loving it.

That and Umass are this team’s ceiling. Need to see it consistently.

I don’t think it’s the role. He was in a funk long before Green got eligible.

He was injured. Notice the lack of KT tape on his shoulder the last 2 games.

Plus he’s been battle back injuries all year.
Eh he wasn’t really in funk before Green.

Scored 18 the game before Green became eligible.

8 straight game with 10+ points to start the season, only single digits three times before Green.

Zek also hasn't scored in double digits once since Green started playing.

Tough to say with those numbers that Green playing didn’t affect Zek.

Hell of a game tonight, hopefully gets back on track.
He was pretty bad at PC. I think he had about 5-6 turnovers that game. Then he had three bad games against Brown, Charleston, and Deleware. We were wondering what was up with him before Green played. But of course, Green playing has hurt his role. He's not getting nearly as many looks, so when he's missing everything he's taken, it seemed to get worse and worse for him. Maybe it was an injury, but he seemed pretty healthy when driving to the hoop like he was tonight, but he would just flat-out miss layups. Either way, we are a much better team when he plays well.

Yeah no doubt it feels really good to play like this

If we play to our capabilities and are totally healthy this is easily a top 4-8 team in conference

Would love to see more of this the rest of the way.

More ups less downs.

Finish the season around .500.

Maybe get a single bye and win a game at the A10 tourney.

Do that, and I will have a lot more hope for next season!

Also for folks that clamor for zone. A bad man to man team isn’t going to be a great zone team. We were even worse. They got 2 wide open shots and we were out of it. Defended like hawks tonight beyond that opening stretch.

Can have whatever opinion you want of him, but you can’t get pissed at that tweet.

It was a fact.

It’s also something Archie and a ton of people here have said over the last couple weeks.

Love the clips Stevey. That late game turnover where we moved the ball up the court without it touching the floor ending with a Weston to Zek layup was a thing of beauty. Not on the level of that play in the Hurley years but pretty nonetheless.

Wasn't able to watch/listen to this one, so glad we finally got a nice road win and very happy for Zek. Makes me wonder if something finally clicked at practice this week, or is GW just that bad? URI can definitely score, so I imagine our D stepped up to some degree. We'll take it!

22, periodically I look back at the past games by the schedule that we lost and think we should have won this one, that one etc. I end up getting myself really frustrated over things that can’t change. I try not to do it anymore. I cut look back bait. Hopefully I stick with it.
