Rhody crushed Fordham Saturday, but Fordham turned the tables and won easily today. Regular season results don't mean anything in tournament play. Hope UMass knows this lesson

Decent take that Rhody (and UM alum Thorr Bjorn) aren't likely to make a change.

Rhody still had a solid season. I wouldn't fire Archie.

It was a middling OOC schedule but they did play a ton of home games which probably helped their overall record. Only 10 away games total and they lost 9. Their RPI is still 100 spots ahead of us, I wouldn't fire him.

I’ve been seeing the vitriol from uri fans on TwiX after the 1st round blowout, had no idea they were that unhappy with him. As you said though, who’s his replacement?

I know you're kidding, but no thanks regardless. I hate Archie's attitude.

Let’s take a chance on a coach we never heard of as I am tired of these retreads getting jobs where they eventually will get hired/rehired because they had success one time!
