Who's Going To Madness Next Friday?
I sure will. Got a new Ram jacket for the occasion.
Need to pick up my season tickets, too.
Just found out, my daughter is going to a wedding that night (who gets married on Friday???)
and I will have my two granddaughters with me. Ages four and two. That should be daunting!
Have to buy them a blue and white outfit. I already have pom poms for them, from the Hurley meet and greet.

My wife and I will be there .... haven't been to the Ryan Center in a couple of years. Looking forward to it. Here's one of the reasons:

Re: Who's Going To Madness Next Friday?
I'm going to do my best to be there and try to get some content for AZ's show. Not sure how I'll be recognizable, but I know he was hoping to get some of our opinions on the show. Anyone willing to answer a question or state an opinion or two about the team for the show, while going by their forum tag, that would be great! This is aside from calling in during the actual show, which will also be encouraged favorably. Not to speak out of school here, but it really sounds like AZ wants to feature us forumers almost as authorities on the program.
Go Rhody!!!

Never! The times I've been interviewed for political things on TV, women and children watching, were very afraid. The camera is not kind to me.
Now, just talking. All day long.

Re: Who's Going To Madness Next Friday?
Probably the way it was set up when Hurley came here.
No seats on the ends, but almost the same seating in the middle and upper deck
just as before.
Love that place!

Rod, I also won't be able to go due to a wedding on Friday. I wonder if it's the same one? Could be! The bride is from Cranston.

Rod, make sure you call into the show when its live, just audio...
I'm sure everybody saw AZ got Kenny Green for an interview coming up, I think next weekend and of course he's working out getting Coach D Hurley...

I wish. Someone paint up and yell for me!
I'll be away playing rugby. And Rod and ATP, Friday weddings are becoming a much more common thing. I guess it's a lot cheaper, better for people who are coming from out of town, etc.

If you say you’re a Rhody fan, I know you are my brother. For you have suffered as I have suffered.

I'll be going.
Anybody have any inside info on which recruits will be in attendance? Last year once the event ended Hare was shooting around on the floor and Preston was giving him a hard time about his jump shot.

It's one of those cases where I bet they do end up with at least one additional scholarship (either the Bigby spot or a transfer of a current player) but when they know that for sure is the question.rodfromcranston wrote:Wish we had more than one scholarship to give!

Re: Who's Going To Madness Next Friday?
Bought the dynamic duo baby blue sweaters and new jeans, for tomorrow.
Have some ancient pom poms and megaphones for them.
Only problem, I wish I knew a woman going to the Madness, because at some point,
the older one is going to need to go to the bathroom.
Plus, we'll lose our seats when I have to take her, and stand outside the ladies room at Keaney.
Any ideas? It's not like going to a store and using the facilities. Ugh!

Rod,
I suggest you find an adult female employee to go in with her, if that is appropriate. I'll bet you'll find someone happy to help.

Re: Who's Going To Madness Next Friday?
I thought the same thing. Too bad he's not eligible this year; he's going to eat up the A10. I think that Nigerian kid is going to be a player, too. During the scrimmage, he always seemed to be in the right place at the right time for a rebound or a putback.Ryan Rowdy wrote:Good lord....I did NOT expect Gil to be that much of an athlete!

Re: Who's Going To Madness Next Friday?
My initial thoughts:
-Gil is a freak (as I stated)
-TJ seemed to bulk up a bit this off-season
-I knew Hare was real lanky, but he seems longer in person
-Powell seemed to be vocal during the scrimmage
-Bigby could be a nice little niche player
-Mike Aaman looks like a guy I wouldn't mess with

Re: Who's Going To Madness Next Friday?
Madness tells me that unless the caliber of our out of conference opponets are at least 5 times better than has been here in the past we should do very well. I could not believe my eyes during the scrimmage.. Non stop action, extra passes, picks, dunks ,fast breaks, intercepted passes. The two teams on the floor would have worn down many A10 teams of yesteryear. Put on your rose colored glasses and get excited for Rhody basketball.
