Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
I guess with the Mohegan developments we would probably be calling PC right about now saying "sorry we have to call it off, need another cupcake on our schedule now." Lol

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
So it is now blatantly obvious to that PC would not want to play us in the third week of the season after we get together.
I normally am not so anti PC unlesss we are playing them - hope they lose every other game this year

After getting their asses handed to them today...PeeC will be playing Davidson in the consolation bracket tomorrow at the Maui Invitational.
Let's hope Davidson shows them what the A10 is made of.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
Hey Ed if you were really concerned about doing what's is best for your team you would play local teams and limit travel. But in reality you are just worried about yourself and your record. You figure nothing to gain and everything to lose. You are afraid of a loss, you are just a chicken shit, no if or buts about it. You can't beat out of conference teams, look at last year you were terrible in out of conference and then fattened up on the over-rated Big East teams. If you had any confident in your team you would had played us but you had to duck us and give us some bullshit.
Seeing the way you played yesterday tells us why you are such a pussy. You are an embarrassment to the state of RI and college basketball, duck-in out of a rivalry game in the middle of a pandemic when the state could use some entertainment because you are afraid of a loss on your record.

Right on "79". With the pandemic getting worse by the day this guy will be putting his team on a plane a week from today and going half way across the country to play ONE GAME. Someone please help me know how this is in the best interest of Providence College and his basketball team.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
C'mon guys, everyone knows the Friars had no agency over their schedule, the Big East FORCED them into these games. Although somehow Villanova was able to just tack on games to their schedule on the fly without consulting the conference first? The nerve of them to keep the BE out of it!!

PC was lucky to win that game....and Davidson is not predicted to be a top 4 A10 team this year.

Absolutely. If Davidson finishes that layup with a couple of seconds to go, his press conference would have been far different, especially after blowing a 19 point first lead.rambone 78 wrote: ↑3 years ago PC was lucky to win that game....and Davidson is not predicted to be a top 4 A10 team this year.

You don't Tweet much, do you? Check the usual suspects, Seany and @dhoopster07. A lot of Rhody fans have had to block that loser. There's also some snaggletooth guy who comments at me sometimes. Can't remember what his handle is.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
Um, I think you guys are missing the boat on this one. The point was that the T hurt them, not helped them. PC was up 12 when the T was called. Davidson finished the half on a 10-2 run from that point. KMAC even pointed out "Two Davidson freebies were the middle points in a 10-0 Davidson run." I don't see what's wrong with that ... To me it's no different than blaming a coach for not calling a timeout during an opponent's run. He's not on-the-court messing things up, but he can do something to help try to change momentum.SmartyBarrett wrote: ↑3 years agoHope he doesn't dislocate his shoulder by patting himself on the back too much.

To answer the thread question, PC game is cancelled because they backed out and are a worse basketball team than us and would have lost at Alumni Hall.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
I absolutely enjoyed listening to Cooley whine on the news last night.
Even better on a night we beat another BE team!
Alabama absolutely throttled them last night. PC didn't want to play us.
Watching the twins and Jermaine play so far we would have worn down Watson.
I can't remember ever having so much size. and the twins are basically freshman ,
they only played 10 games at Maryland last year. They are only going to get better.
We have power 5 size and it will really be an advantage in conference.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
Now we see why Cooley was afraid to play us and wanted an easier game. What I can't figure out is why no one in the local media has calling him out for replacing URI with FDU. What kind of coach says I need an easier game I am afraid of a mid-major I need to replace with a cupcake. Not a coach who is winner, no wonder they are getting their asses beat.
Anyways since this was the weekend the game was supposed be played lets pretend Cooley wasn't such a pussy and predict what the score would have been if the game was played. I will say URI 83 Providence 62.

Yup Pee Cee's chances of beating us this year zero point zero....
Rhody 87 PeeCee 64
A total blow out!
Btw, apparently we're 5-1 in our last 6 against the BE, that must be why they directed Pee Cee to duck us, they are embarrassed of the record we are compiling against them.

I forget what the score was last year and too lazy to look it up but remember by the end it was not that close. That was with a better PC team and what seems like a URI team that wasn't as offensively strong than we currently have.

I agree. Move on.
Play other Big East teams, beat them, and forget PC.
The amount of nonsense from PC and their fans thinking the Big East is the Big East of old is delusional. They are lucky they have Villanova and Butler (who I'm sure they said sucked when they used to be in the A10).
Couldn't care less if we play them if they're going to act like this

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if the A10 is so bad in the Big East's eyes, then why do they keep needing to steal teams from the A10 to survive? You could make one heck of a conference out of the teams that the BE stole from the A10:15 Year Lurker wrote: ↑3 years agoI agree. Move on.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
Maybe you should also ask why did these teams jump at first asking once Big East came calling. Also any team right now in the A10 would jump if the Big East came calling . Think that is all you pretty much need to know.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
The A10 is recognized as one of the premier mid-level basketball conferences and the Big East will always poach the top teams from our conference. That is something we have gotten used to and will probably continue, and any program in our conference will jump at that opportunity, can't blame them.,

Definitely true (looking at you, Fordham), but still it is beyond hypocritical to claim the A10 sucks and then at the same time keep pilfering their teams to remain viable.woodennickel1 wrote: ↑3 years agoMost conferences will have a few good teams .

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
50% of Conferences are playing back to back conference games at the same team site. Play Friday and Saturday against the same team in the same arena. This reduces the chances for Covid. The A10 looked at this but chose not to.
But the most overrated Head Coach in College Basketball is still flying his team from Providence to Ft Worth Texas, in the heat of a Pandemic, for one single game vs a team picked to finish near the bottom of the Big 12 Conference.
St John's and Texas Tech backed out of their schedule encounter.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
Nickel how do you defend Cooley being afraid to play URI, seriously what kind of coach says he needs an easier game on his schedule. It does not instill confidence in your team to back out of a game because you are afraid you might lose. I would thank that would upset Friar nation. I would think the players want this game and the fan base want this game for bragging rights. But your coach is afraid of losing so he backs out. I would think someone in Friartown would call Cooley out on this. I know if the shoe was on the other foot and Cox backed out because he was afraid of losing this board would be going crazy. But we don't have to worry about that because Cox isn't a big pussy like Cooley. Cox will play anyone!!!woodennickel1 wrote: ↑3 years agoSo your going to compare PC to the likes of George Washington, Fordham and LaSalle.

Re: PC game cancelled - WHY???
I don't agree with it and thought the game should have been played. Although after watching them play the first few games I guess I can understand his concern but still think you need to play the game. I have heard from some people that URI wanted it to be PC home game but don't know if that is true. If it is then that would be the only reason I would side with Cooley.79RhodyFan wrote: ↑3 years agoNickel how do you defend Cooley being afraid to play URI, seriously what kind of coach says he needs an easier game on his schedule.
