apparently we can't touch a fordham player on defense without the whistle blowing. 5 fouls in the first 3.5 minutes

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:28 pm**

REBOUND!!

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:29 pm**

get an effing rebound

comedy moment of the atfernoon, behind the back pass by #10 on Fordham into the backcourt

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:34 pm**

so sloppy on both sides. c'monnnnnnn

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:37 pm**

these announcers are awful

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:38 pm**

This game is ugly. I'll still take the W, but there aren't many positives regardless.

Which came right after Bigby got a pass through right to himi at the top of the key and he fumbled it away. We can't buy a rebound in this game on the offensive boards. Ugly game.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:40 pm**

Does the ball have no grip or something? It seems like no one can hold on to it.

And I agree, the announcers are terrible.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:42 pm**

good job Nik. sigh.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:43 pm**

apparently URI can't touch anyone without a foul being called. This is ridiculous

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:44 pm**

I'm trying to figure out how we're going to win this game...and I am struggling to see it. Hope I'm wrong.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:46 pm**

i see playing hack a #42 when he's in

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:47 pm**

I'm stuck at work so I can't watch (been trying to get a stream on the I phone without m boss or any of my tables seeing me. No luck so far). Sounds like another ugly game that's going to come down to the wire. My main concern from the GW game was the massive struggle the had inbound in the ball. Have you guys seen any of that so far today?

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:47 pm**

horrible call there on andre. unreal

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:47 pm**

Can we just save time and let them shoot free throws every possession without running the clock down?

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:50 pm**

this is remarkable.

kinda puts to rest the argument some posters were making over the past couple days that "we're not good enough to get homecourt calls"

Fordham's worse than we are and the refs are doing all they can to help them

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:52 pm**

what was that little argument right now?

I clicked away during the timeout and missed it

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:53 pm**

The refs are making this game almost unwatchable. This is frustrating.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:53 pm**

15 fouls on URI in 13 minutes

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:54 pm**

Down 5 with 8 left? Come on guys, these are the games we have to win. Buckle down and finish strong!

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:55 pm**

tough when playing 8 on 5

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:57 pm**

one of the ugliest games ive ever seen, AWFUL

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:58 pm**

we can't step in to take a charge it gets called a block every time so now the help defense is hurting us

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 2:59 pm**

I feel like the past few games we've been treated like Rodney Dangerfield... No Respect

I hate when the refs affect the outcome of games, really bad calls both ways, just more bad calls against us

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:01 pm**

WE NEED A LEGIT BIG MAN LIKE PAULY D NEEDS GEL

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:03 pm**

horrible foul by Nik - come over the back like that makes it so obvious then he acts like he didn't do it

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:04 pm**

Munford leading the A10 in FT shooting then misses 2 today - tough shooting day for all of our guys today

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:05 pm**

GOD we are making this Fordham team look like they are 14-5

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:05 pm**

On the court: Powell, Munford, Buchanan, Bigby, Malone. WOW

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:09 pm**

Besides this game being downright awful. Nik is a whiney b*tch and wish he was off the team, Bigby is awful, Powell needs to be told to stop shooting 3's as he's short every time,team should stop guarding the perimeter and shut off lanes instead. Let Fordham beat you from the outside!

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:11 pm**

Can everyone shut the F up with complaining about the officials.... yes they SUCK, but so does our effort today. We are not a good team and we need everything to break right for us to win games, especially on the road regardless of opponent. Sloppy defense, crucial missed free throws, defensive breakdowns, lack of inside game... we will be fortunate enough to win ANY games this year.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:13 pm**

two huge 3's there

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:14 pm**

We were due for a bad game with the team having played relatively well in two straight. This team lacks talent and is just too inconsistent to expect very much. Thankfully, only 11 more games of this left for this season. Much better times ahead next year.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:15 pm**

OMG IS POWELL EVER GOING TO SMARTEN UP?

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:16 pm**

don't need that 3 there, then don't get the rebound on the missed free throw

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:17 pm**

They are calling everything but over the back...

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:18 pm**

yup, absolutely easyed

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:19 pm**

19 O-boards for Fordham! Worse stat of them all! This team is awful with boxing out! Can't do anything about the height advantage by Canty & Leonard but box outs have been non-existent by Rhody

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:21 pm**

I think Hurley did Fordham a big favor today by staying with the man to man defense. Fordhams only 2nd half offense has been driving to the basket and drawing fouls. Fordham was in the double bonus with 10 minutes remaining and we never switched our defense to protect our foul situation and force them to shoot from the outside.

Let see what we draw up for the final possession of the game.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:21 pm**

they have boxed out some times but don't get the over the back calls when they do

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:21 pm**

Bigby boxed out Leonard pretty text-bookly (words!) and got climbed on. They have been shitty rebounding the basketball today but I think its more a lack of size and no over the back's being called rather than lack of effort.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:22 pm**

i cant take this anymore this season im sorry

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:25 pm**

Well there goes any chance at the A10 tourney.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:26 pm**

I don't ever want to think about that basketball game ever again. ever.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:27 pm**

Worst loss this year by far. Team played like dogshit for 40 minutes, and had no business even being in the game at the end. Don't understand forcing the ball to Munford three times at the end of the game when he had played so badly. Give Malone, TJ or Mike a shot. Most aggravating game since the Baron era.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:28 pm**

Gritty performance for Fordham. They came to play today and Rhody didn't. If you are not all that good, you have to put forth your best effort for every game, regardless of opponent.

This season was a lost cause from day one and today is the exclamation point.

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:28 pm**

Truly dissappointing game in every way. I agree that Hurley should have switched to zone after realizing that if we touched the other team it would be called a foul, especially because Fordham barely took take ANY jumpshots in the second half, just drives to the basket. See ya A10 tourney

Posted: **Sat Jan 26, 2013 3:29 pm**

we may have played bad but the refs cost us that game, Fordham shot 25 free throws the second half because they called 20 fouls on URI, I have never seen that many calls against one team. Most were not fouls, many fantom calls or call a hand on a guy.
