URI goes down fighting

Congrats to baby Hurley and his guys.

Former ru assistant that was fired here certainly has done well for himself.

Terrible coaching down the stretch. He's talked about so much that I expected more.

He used his last timeout too early and then his player made a bonehead play (ala Craig carter in 91 for us). Then Oregon kid makes a great shot. It's march. It happens.

Then he allowed his team to dribble out the last 20+ seconds for a step back 30 footer... quick 2?

Awful final minute... and why did they waste so much time down just 3, and chuck up 2 deep three pointers when there was 45 seconds left?

Refs didn't give Rhody any breaks either

Agree. I would have thought quick two and lengthen the game there.

That was a head scratcher for sure.

Horrible final minute. It probably extends to the last couple of minutes. They didn't box out (twice) on that one possession. Hurley used his final timeout too early. They looked lost trying to figure out how to tie the game (or go for a quick two).

They weren't helped by that questionable call, but lost this game on their own (and give Oregon credit for executing at the end).

You guys are truly clueless. . He took a mid level team to within a minute of elite 8 against a powerhouse.. We haven't done anything but watch for 25 years.

What a terrible coach Hurley is. You guys are funny.

 

[shields]

I like our coach.

Within a minute of the Elite 8? They lost in the Round of 32 not the Sweet Sixteen. Who's clueless?

God I hate the Hurleys.

Hey, were not even at the sweet 16 yet, ok guy? God I wonder who's more clueless

Second guessing is easy while watching a game but coaches have to make quick decisions at the spur of the moment.When the team wins the coach is a hero and when they lose the coach is a bum.There is no middle ground with some fans.

I think he meant to say "within 41 minutes."

 

[TMCB]

That's just an hour from a trip to the Final 4. Well 61 minutes.
