Wasn't that where Dustin Hellenga was from? And didn't he wind up at a Division 3 school (Grand Valley State?)?
I think you might be onto something.

And Helenga would be a big Baron defender, why?
Helenga went to South Lakes High School. His family now lives in Michigan.
Dustin was the second of a long line of Baron Doghouse
members. Troy Wiley was the first, but surely not the last.
Loved Helenga's game. He was like a poor man's Steve Chubin.

Can we please stop conflating defending Baron and critiquing Hurley? My ID is not gonerodgone. It is gonebarongone. I doubt there is a soul on the planet happier than I am that JB is gone.

If you disagree with anyone on this board, its because you're a Baron-lover. Its been like that for years, it will probably never change.

And so it should be. As a coach, the man has done nothing really. Guess it depends on your aspirations for URI basketball. Glad he's finally gone. 12 years. Man, has it been 12 years?

No it shouldn't be like that. We should be able to argue and discuss the program on this board without everyone invoking the "you must love Jim Baron!" card every 5 minutes. Its immature to think that like that. I don't agree with GBG that often, but he backs up his posts with his reasoning and has never said a positive word about Jim Baron (that I've seen). Give it a rest already.
