Has Hurley used a TO?

40 points in a half to a D2 team is not close to acceptable...If it's broke fix it

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

I guess KMac's comments were justified.

Good college feed here these guys are pretty funny....

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

Alright, let's get it to 6.

Er, make that 8. Can't tell which scoreboard is correct.

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 10 years ago

Nice charge take there.

Yeah, why No TO's from Hurley?

EDIT: There's one.

bigappleram · Unread post by **bigappleram** » 10 years ago

our defense is a huge concern. its like our guys are afraid to even attempt to get in front of someone for fear of fouling. atrocious

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 10 years ago

Minnis is now and forever "spina ram a"

Ha ha ha, love it!!!!!!!

NJ03 · Unread post by **NJ03** » 10 years ago

At this point getting it to 6 by half would be a major accomplishment. Gotta make a bucket here

All I want for my birthday today is a Rhody win..... and this is the effort they give me?!? C'mon Rhody!!!

Unread post by **TruePoint** » 10 years ago

That was just about worst-case scenario. Really hope I am not proven wrong in the second half.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

40-30. half.

Snarky, I mean, Adam. What do you think of Metro State compared to NCAT?

i could repspond to the what else do you need ad but that's too easy

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 10 years ago

OK let's go eat a snack!!!

These guys are killing me!!

Iggy1979 · Unread post by **Iggy1979** » 10 years ago

Hurley told us this was a good team. He was wrong. I guess Gil is out with the ankle injury

We should have never played this game----i blame the coaches...we should have pulled out once we were informed of the matchups...we can still win....I'm just saying

gorhody89 · Unread post by **gorhody89** » 10 years ago

This team hasn't been too much fun to watch so far this season...Unless you like senseless turn-overs, missed shots, and horrible defense....Let's get our act together Rhody

Note to self: Remember not to feed the trolls...

bigappleram · Unread post by **bigappleram** » 10 years ago

well none of that happened and we are up shits creek as the pressure will mount in the 2nd half and fans will start pulling for them as they fill the empty arena.

how is gil healthy enough to start but not to put back in?

we have zero low post threat without him because Iffy is a garbage man, not a go to low post guy at this point.

for all the Hare detractors he would be having a field day in this game blocking shorter white guys taking layups, it'd be like high school for him.

our defense is embarrassing.

BPR2010 · Unread post by **BPR2010** » 10 years ago

Correct me if I'm wrong, but does this look like Baron ball to you guys? Slowing the game down, and playing methodical half court defense is the only way I see this team improving their defense for the rest of this season. We had one of the best D's in the A-10 last year simply because we limited possessions. This team has looked absolutely atrocious all season.

Shinze88 · Unread post by **Shinze88** » 10 years ago

This is an absolute disgrace, I'm moving on to MNF. We are getting taken behind the woodshed by a D2 team who looks more athletic, better coached and hungrier. We are soft and play with absolutely no clue on both ends of the floor. Never did I ever think I'd see a Hurley coached team look so much a Jerry D coached team.

There is absolutely no excuse for what this team has showed so far this year.... transfers, blah, blah, blah.. This is not a very good team and Hurley isnt exactly showing me much so far this year. I think last years team was easier to watch to be honest, at least those kids looked like they care.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

You asked for it.

I'll give you another half to figure this team out. k?

Your pal.

He had 2 quick fouls for walking on the court at the wrong time.

Where's the intensity (of last year's team)????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? This surprises me, having been to the open practice prior to the Italy trip. What happened to the cohesion, team spirit?????? Maybe they should get back to making pizzas together………...

The Roadrunners shot 52 percent. URI is not athletic and can cover quick teams

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

They rely, well try to anyway, too much on athleticism. When the going gets tough, they go all Jerry D AAU out there.

We said this after the SMU game, but this is Metro State now.

Maybe they will settle down for the second half, at least make it respectable.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

EC and Biggie with the start for the 2nd half.

RIFan · Unread post by **RIFan** » 10 years ago

I just don't know what to say...I guess the only positive is we shouldn't have to worry about any schools trying to take our coach this spring.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 10 years ago

6 point game.

Still a chance here. Hurley has made some adjustments.

hrstrat57 · Unread post by **hrstrat57** » 10 years ago

need more of that!!

Attack the rack!

Unread post by **ATPTourFan** » 10 years ago

Gilvydas with a nice interior move and EC goes coast to coast in exciting fashion. Damn, he's good.

bigappleram · Unread post by **bigappleram** » 10 years ago

the starting lineup many have been clamoring for to open the half

and 5 good shots as a result, made 2 of them

Rhodygirl2 · Unread post by **Rhodygirl2** » 10 years ago

I don't understand why Biruta isn't dominating tonight. Let's hope we see more like that.

I wish Biggie didn't master how to play defense the old way. Its like he is perfect every time but that low arm gets a foul now.

Blue Man · Unread post by **Blue Man** » 10 years ago

I'm with BPR. This is baronball.

All we had to do was stick with hurley's suffocating defense from last year, and methodical half court sets. WIth the talent we have this year, put into that system, we're undefeated and it's not even close.

WHY ARE WE RUNNING WHEN WE CANT RUN!?
