URI Facts
1. There are 250+ schools who would hire our coach tomorrow if they could
2. 2015: back against the wall (play in game), we persevered
3. Last three times in NCAA we were an 11 seed and advanced
4. UD embraces the underdog role
5. URI shot an unreal 56% from the field
6. And 52% from three.
7. That is just going to beat almost any team
8. We only had 9 turnovers
9. No longer undefeated in the grey uniforms, put those away already
10. I have been drinking. Shocker

URI shot 56% and 52% because the defense was horrible. Good college players can drain shots all day long when open.

Stop making such reasonable posts while you are drunk.

...if they choose to get "their feces aggregated", instead of leaving it strewn across the court...

Are we sure about this? What I watched yesterday was in no way, shape, or form an NCAA caliber team. I can't see them winning another game if they don't fix this and continue to play like they have these past few games.
I'm still optimistic and I believe that Archie will find a way to bring these guys together, but for an NCAA bid there is still work to be done.

He is like Dr Johnny Fever from WKRP in Cincinnati. As he got drunker, his reaction time improved. In CoffeeCan's case, he makes more sense.

Its all good. SO what if we are not ranked, not going to win the conference and losing badly in our own gym to a depleted team- we're going to the NCAA's( now likely as a later seed. Whoopeeeee. Nothing to worry about -We still have Archie who will have all summer to figure out what went wrong- Oh and most of the same team comes back next year, minus our best player. Gonna be great, can't wait.

Let's Face It
This team stinks. It appears to have a chemistry problem of unknown origin. One thing is clear.
UD has two big guys on this team who cannot play a lick. As February turns to March it will be up to greater minds than mine to figure out if this is a player problem, coaching problem or recruiting error. While many believe UD will go to the NCAA what does it mean when they are playing so poorly and without confidence. This team is playing as though they would prefer the season to be over soon.

These points are all well and good. However if there is team dissension or personality problems - then we will achieve NOTHING this year.
Not saying that will happen. Just that i see there is one on 1 basketball with Cookie Monster , Scoochie is not himself or perhaps doesn't have control of the team. And then there might be more issues.
who truly knows. But whats reflected on the floor doesn't look promising or healthy.

Personally I like those rather than many of the "unreasonable posts while they are NOT drunk" that have recently surfaced.

Don't like the gray unis. With URI wearing UDs old light blue I thought I was watching a 1970s game between the flyers and the Buckeyes.

Let's just say Lady Momentum is not in our locker room right now. If she doesnt come back, looks like a fun summer for all us on line assistant AD's.

Agree 100% - and lose 2/3 or 3/3 over the next 2 weeks and the only decision will whether not to accept an NIT bid.
