Rhode Island Game Thread

[lhsgolf19]

Time to shake off that loss to a very tough St. Joe's team... We are still in 1st Boys and Girls, and I want to stay there!


Leave no doubt tonight! Punish Them!

Go Flyers! Go Archie!

Tv for this game?

[UD Sam]

It will be on WHIO-TV, Channel 7. Not sure if anyone else is carrying it.

[San Diego Flyer]

We don't dare flub up this game. After the Rams, we have 4 out of 5 on the road. This long road stretch in the next 3 weeks is going to tell us a lot about ourselves.

[udstevied_D87]

pretty sure it will be on here too:

Thank God--video with Larry and Bucky doing play by play

[frisco flyer]

i would like to see parker and KD in the game together. These guys are going to try to pressure KD all game long

[frisco flyer]

Thanks CJ

[frisco flyer]

Paging PW!

Hahahahahaha

[udstevied_D87]

anyone else having low audio volume issues?

[NCkevi]

URI is bad - the way we're playing, a decent team would be up by double figures

[frisco flyer]

DO is playing well. Good to see.

[frisco flyer]

Yup. Now it keeps going up and down during the commercial break.
I can hear it OK, but it is low.

[udx2]

Big time. Thought it was just me.

Devon is much more aggressive tonight. He needs to use his hops to get above the rim.

[frisco flyer]

PW finally makes one!

[frisco flyer]

We are struggling mightily in the paint. We can't win this game jacking up threes. Kavs and Gavs need to step up.

[udx2]

Luke for 3. Would love to see him have a good game.

[udx2]

No! CJ down.

[kiefaber455]

8 TO's already?

[kiefaber455]

That last URI basket was a result of PW not hustling on defense

[TommyGola]

Agree with Frisco Flyer. We need to get the ball in the paint. It seems big athletic players haunt us on both sides of the ball.

[TommyGola]

Paul, come on, you are a senior. You need to play under control and play smartly.

[Bill McPeek]

We are totally out of sync

[udx2]

PW what is going on? Seriously, is he suffering from something because this is not the PW of the past.

[kiefaber455]

I know because there's shortage of healthy bodies Williams has to play, but it would be nice to just thank him for his time at UD and then plant his asssss on the bench for the rest of the year.

[jack72]

PW has gone from bad to pathetic to a complete joke. no shooting, turnover and poor defense. Sit, sit, sit...

[frisco flyer]

"I don't know if you can play Paul"

"You don't have a choice ... that's the problem"

I actually think we do have a choice. JP, RH, DO; any of them would do better the way PW is playing. I don't know what's going on with him, but I have to think it is in his head. He is better than that. The guy is hurting us big time. I sure hope he starts playing better.

[kiefaber455]

I hate Baron and the entire family--and he coached my HS team

[TommyGola]

I hope there are no more Baron brothers coming along!

[TommyGola]

As thin as the team is in depth, we cannot afford to have Paul in a funk. I don't know what it is, but he just seems to lack court awareness and judgement. This is a freshman malady...not something that you should see in a senior.

[Bill McPeek]

What is it with us and Rhode Island? Get the ball down low and get to the foul line!

[FlyingArrow]

Up 3 at halftime. Could be worse. Could be better.

[frisco flyer]

Off topic:
Lego man in space. If you don't know what I'm talking about, google it. Pretty cool stuff.

[udx2]

Agree, being up is a good thing, but with a Baron coached Rhode Island team, I simply cannot relax.

[NCkevi]

Was hoping for a big win - now just hoping for a win
Can't afford a loss because of the big RPI hit, but that would also drop us to somewhere between 3-6 in the A10

[kiefaber455]

Would love to see someone have a big 2nd half and carry this team to victory.

[kiefaber455]

A phucking bank shot for 3?

[frisco flyer]

We're getting RI'd

[kiefaber455]

This looks like a BG team coming out to begin a 2nd half

[TommyGola]

Archie wants to get it in the paint...and we continue to fire 3's!

[kiefaber455]

Originally Posted by TommyGola Archie wants to get it in the paint...and we continue to fire 3's!

Unfortunately, Kavs has missed 2 point blank shots this half

[Flyer 86]

and where is the ph&&ckin defense?

URI lost 6 in row and have what 2 wins. craziness!!

[FlyingArrow]

15:54 to go.
Rhode Island is up by 1.

[FlyerGuyer]

Slobodan Milosevic's grandson plays for URI. Nice. Didn't know that before.

[kiefaber455]

A-10 officials are the worse

[FlyingArrow]

50-50 RI
13:55 to go
RI ball

[kiefaber455]

What a horrible effort--down 58-52

[FlyerGuyer]

What happened to our defense? It's been atrocious the past two games.

[Canonball]

Yuck.

[frisco flyer]

No spark today and no leadership.
The team needs a kick in the @$$

[TommyGola]

Rhode Island is getting way too much dribble penetration and this is opening up both their game in the paint and the threes. We need to get our guards to step up on defense. Boy, do we need Paul Williams to get his game together. Why is it that so often our senior fade when they should be excelling?

[Sea Bass]

The shots r unreal. A banker 2 step backs and a fadeaway

[FlyingArrow]

58-52 RI leads
11:51 to go

Ugh.
RI can't miss.

[NCkevi]

Originally Posted by kiefaber455 A-10 officials are the worse

URI is the worst team in the A10 and we should be up enough that the offficials shouldn't matter

[Flyer 86]

Baron better not fri**in have any more eligible kids

[Flyer 86]

Cj playing very inspired ball.

let's do this!

[frisco flyer]

Defense!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[udx2]

Tied at 60 with 9:50 to play.

[udx2]

We take the lead with Matt's stuff.

[NCkevi]

How does a team shooting 40% (310 in D1) go for around 55% (so far) this game?

[FlyingArrow]

Looked like all ball to me on that last foul on Kav.

[FlyerGuyer]

Kav turns up the heat...

[kiefaber455]

Ralph Hill with a mid-range jumper

[kiefaber455]

URI was 1-7 from 3 in the first half--bet they haven't missed 3 the 2nd half

[TommyGola]

They always light up the scoreboard when they play us. We need to defend that three-ball much better. How has this team lost all those games?

[FlyingArrow]

67-66 RI
6:47 to go

[FlyingArrow]

Gav with 2 big free throw attempts...
hits both
68-67 Dayton
6:23 to go

[FlyerGuyer]

Alex takes the charge...nice...

[FlyerGuyer]

KD makes one of two technical foul shots...CJ follows up with two...71-67...

[FlyingArrow]

Foul plus a technical on RI. And an RI player fouls out.
4 Dayton free throws in a row.
Dillard hits 1/2 on the technical.
CJ shoots two.
First... made
Second... made.
71-67 Dayton.
5:18 to go.

[kiefaber455]

CJ got away with an over the back

[FlyerGuyer]

CJ is stepping up BIG TIME...

[Canonball]

Billy Baron is a sophomore. I feel like I've been hearing 'baron for three' for a decade now. Worn me out.

[Flyer 86]

was about to post same thing about CJ. h'es killing it.

and hope this CJ stays with us all Season!

[NCkevi]

Need to finish strong - a loss here and an at large bid becomes a long shot

[FlyerFanatic08]

CJ got away with an over the back, terrible time for that kid to get a T, thought the kid had a point. i'll take it, going to need every point we can get

[kiefaber455]

It just seems that URI is blessed when they play at UD

[TommyGola]

75-72...good things happen when Kevin Dillard goes to the hoop.

[FlyerGuyer]

Baron for 3...tied...

[Canonball]

Paul couldn't hit the ocean right now.

[FlyingArrow]

1:26
77-75 RI
Ugh.

[TommyGola]

Paul needs to get on Baron...you can't let him set his feet!

[kiefaber455]

This is a totally unacceptable effort from this team especially defensively

[TommyGola]

Turnover by Kevin Dillard...RI has the ball with 1:08.

[FlyerGuyer]

Billy Baron again...

[kiefaber455]

Guess Archie is going to be here for a while

[Canonball]

cheese and rice. the is putrid.

[UDDoug]

Becoming a trend. Poor effort and no desire.

Luke for 3!

[dnutz77]

Paul killed us on both ends again tonight. Good grief. Guess Shocka knows what he's talking about after all.
