It's justified. Excuses excuses.
What about losing close games at the end? Missing one player is the only reason for that? Bullshit.
Ramster, I agree, CFL the 2nd is a bit harsh.
He isn't going to be in the same situation as Baron was.
If he delivers on his promises, I have no problem with him being here for a long long time.

So you are saying calling Dan Hurley CFLII is justified first two words. Then later you say it's a bit harsh. I'm not sure where you stand.rambone 78 wrote:It's justified. Excuses excuses.

From where I stand it is complete BS just so you know where I stand. In fact it's embarrassing imho.

Of course CFL II is an exaggeration But the guy was handed a contract extension after one NIT appearance. This season, with the Matthews injury, has been something of a bust. I'm getting too old for a 20-year rebuild.

Some here think EC is Steph Curry. Or Magic Johnson.
Great with him. Not very good without. No gray area here.
Unbelievable.
Ramster, I didn't mean that's justified about being the next CFL.
I meant we are justified to be critical of the team without EC.
The first part of my post was related to that.
The rest was my opinion about Dan. He's not another CFL. If he doesn't get it done within the next couple of years, he won't be around much longer than that.
The end of this season will be 4 years. Anybody think he'll be here as long as JB was, if we don't Dance?
No chance in hell.

It's an exageration? That was not my take from your statement. Others are now are picking up on it so there's that. There is and always will be a Grand Canyon size type of gap between the two coaches.Ramblinrose wrote:Of course CFL II is an exaggeration But the guy was handed a contract extension after one NIT appearance.

ramster, in some ways yes. Dan is miles better than JB was in some respects.
But, JB went to 2 NCAA tourneys earlier in his career.
So far, it's JB 2, Hurley 0.
Hurley has some time to catch up, of course.
But numbers don't lie.
I guess I'll put MY helmet on now.

No need for a helmet. The question is do you agree with referring to DH as CFLII or not. Simple as that. I'll take from your responses that you agree. Moving on.

Re: Game 19: @ George Washington - TODAY, 3pm RaiseHigh.tv
Many people called this season a wash/gave Hurley a pass for this year once EC went down.
I agree the ending of games has been awful, but if this season is a wash/a pass for Dan, we can expect this.
It's not so much as, "close game, give EC the ball and he will score."
With EC in a close game, everyone will concentrate on him, creating open lanes/space for everyone. We look absolutely lost at the end games, it's really sad.
Like I said, I'm just as frustrated by always losing these close games.
But let's stop the talk of Hurley as CFL II. That's a bit ridiculous.

I'm razzin you guys with silly nicknames because I'm salty over the Patriots loss and because I just suffered a page of you guys pushing each others buttons. Equal opportunity razzing hahaha

Looking over the standings and reflecting on where URI was against certain teams... 3-3, but URI had a shot in all 3 losses.
IN FACT, URI held a lead or a significant lead in all 3 losses.
Frustrating times.

Nobody and I mean nobody is happier than yours truly that the Patsies went down. Genius coach Bill should have tried harder to win the Miami game to get home field throughout the playoffs. It is well know that the game plan down there was bizzarre with all the running plays and the team got what it deserved in Denver.

Patsies? Pretty close to their 7th (GOT THAT?) Super Bowl.
Your stinking team fired their coach for taking the
gas pipe so many times this season.
I laugh my ass off when those loser's sphincters pucker at
the end of games.
Hey, Eli didn't have any INTs this week!
He only does that when he isnt playing.
Jealous much?

As Don Shula stated Belicheat. Where did that come from? Who roots for cheaters?
My recollection is that Eli did ok is his Super Bowls leading 2 big underdog teams to the promised land.
No INTs for Eli today but the pretty boy had 2.
Belicheat blew it in Miami with his game plan. If this game was played here today the Patsies win about 30-10.

Everyone should laugh when the G-men pucker away games...happened a bunch of times this year...just like with a certain college hoops team...
Remember, I'm just a 'pastime' kinda guy...my Giants/Pats memories are all Super Bowl related...so far, I'll take the head to head results there.

uh, I'm just not able to let this opportunity pass, since I'm not the one that brought the excuse train up this time I can't beat myself for perseverating. And let me just say it's always so fascinating to me how we can mostly consume the same product, but all see things in unique ways. In my experience it's been one excuse after another, with a small handful of mia culpa's mixed in. I'm always hopeful, but I gotta keep it real.

Ugly pattern developing with this team. Last 5 minutes with a lead and they fold. When they are down they fight back but for some reason cant play with the lead. JT was awful down the stretch including missing two free throws.
Need to figure this out quickly or come March they wont be playing anywhere.

Re: Game 19: @ George Washington - TODAY, 3pm RaiseHigh.tv
Has Dan even ONCE said after games:
Hey this is on me. I have to coach better. Not just our players have to play better.
With Belichick, like him or not, he always owns up to it after they lose.
Losing close games under pressure time after time after time, is all the blame on the players?
Yes they are the ones missing shots and FT's, and making mistakes.
But the coach has the ultimate responsibility to win. He's repeatedly putting his team in a bad spot, by making them play a style they aren't good at, in the last few minutes of games.
They have zero confidence. That's a reflection on the coach. The buck stops there.
And that's all I'm going to say about it for a while.
Have at it boys!

Odds are we beat Fordham and St Joe's at home, have another tough game at UMASS, probably lead for a good portion of the game, the slowly but surely lose the lead and the game the last 5 minutes.

I agree Dre,Dre3000 wrote:I think you are right, however I see it as highly unlikely there are no NCAA trips in the next 2 years. Hate to say it but I actually think a more likely scenario is NCAA next yr with a deep run, Dan gets picked up by a P5, and takes EC with him to be the star player where he can show what he can do night in and night out against tough comp to increase draft potential.rambone 78 wrote:Dan goes 2 more years [after this one] without a Dance invite, he should be on the hot seat.
Like Brady said, he's not in any trouble right now.
But that won't last forever, if he doesn't produce.
At some point, excuses will run out.
I don't believe that Hurley will go two more years after this year without an NCAA trip - if that happens I would agree with Rambone that he will be on the Hot Seat.
Agree that after next season Hurley will be sought after by P5 Schools and EC would have the option to follow to play in a P5 Conference. EC would show what he can do in a different Conference against different players as he positions himself either for the NBA Draft or for his Professional Career overseas. I'd be surprised if EC is at URI after next season.
Next year Hurley will have a veteran team starting 3 Seniors and 2 Juniors
Martin - Senior
Iverson - Senior
Mathews - Senior with an additional year to play somewhere
Terrell - Junior
Garrett - Junior
Others vying for Starting Positions or Playing Time next year: Robinson, Thompson, Akele, Langevine. Layssard, Dowtin, Tersea, Berry
Hurley's Record at URI:
2015 Conf 3-3 for 6th: Overall 11-8
2014 Conf 13-5 for 3rd: Overall 23-10
2013 Conf 5-11 for 10th: Overall 14-18
2012 Conf 3-13 for 14th: Overall 8-21

Really hurt against GW to have Martin play only 21 minutes before fouling out.
Also Thompson played only 12 total minutes as he was saddled with 4 fouls.
Garrett, Terrell, McGlynn and Iverson all played 35-37 minutes each

Again, with the disclaimer that I like DH and think/hope we are headed in the right direction, DH is in his sixth year of coaching a D1 team and has one NIT appearance to show for it (we'll be lucky to get an NIT bid this year). His overall coaching record currently stands at 94-79 (24-32 in the A10). (.543 and .429 winning percentages respectively.) As has already been stated, if his name wasn't Hurley would those numbers jump out at you if you were a P5 AD? Would you bring this coaching prospect in for an interview? Ask Minnesota how their "name" hire is working out or how the Ronny Thompson experiment at Ball State worked out. Yes, EC got hurt and it was a body blow to the program but good coaches adapt and rely on and develop other players as has been done at Dayton multiple times recently. Good coaches develop leaders too. I see no real leaders on this team with or without EC. Where have you gone TJ Buchanan (who I think is a born leader and whose presence on this team is desperately missed). I think TJ willed us to that NIT bid last year. He got in teammates faces and held them accountable. Maybe leadership potential is a trait DH should start focusing on during recruitment.
As for EC being an NBA draft pick? I've never bought in to that idea. Not yet anyway from what I've seen. NBA prospects dominate the A10 like Mark Macon, Eddie Jones, Aaron McKie, Marcus Camby, David West, Cat Mobley, Lamar Odom, Jameer Nelson and Andrew Nicholson all did. Haven't seen EC dominate the A10 on a consistent basis. He hasn't even made the postseason first team yet. Let's just hope he gets healthy and can at least get back to where he was before the ACL injury. After that happens, we'll see.
With the talent assembled next year, if we don't dance, I think we're in trouble as a program.
Just my two cents...
Sorry to be so negative but the magical thinking on this board is delusional sometimes...

95, you don't have to be sorry for that line of thinking.
A lot of us share your opinion, and more and more are slowly coming to the realization that it might be true, sad to say.
Someone said that Langevine might be as good as Bembry in time.
That would be really nice, if it happens. Might make a difference.

As one of the rumpswabs it is my duty to let you know that the next 5 games are very winnable:
JANUARY
Wed. 27 Fordham
Sat. 30 Saint Joseph's
FEBRUARY
Tue. 2 at Massachusetts
Sat. 6 at La Salle
Tue. 9 George Mason
I'll take a record of 8-3 heading into a home game with Dayton on Friday 2/12. Hopefully we'll be in a position to get a nice home crowd for that game.
GO RHODY!

I think it's a little presumptuous to pencil in St Joe's as an automatic win. Don't think that will be an easy one. And we haven't won on the road in the A10 yet.

To be fair, he said "winnable", and nothing about automatic.UCH21377 wrote:I think it's a little presumptuous to pencil in St Joe's as an automatic win. Don't think that will be an easy one. And we haven't won on the road in the A10 yet.

Fair enough. But I'm scared about that game.
