I liked the way that Fordham played this season. Like Bill I am not an Urgo fan due to his antics. Guy can coach them up though. The Fordham fans love him. Usually when a team is good and people hate on a coach or player of that team it is a good thing. Nobody cares if a team is losing.
Meh… sometimes. I have no issues with Rhoades or any of these VCU players, and they’re good. Same goes for Anthony Grant and his roster. Urgo, on the other hand, has that Napoleon of NYC thing going on. NOBODY can top my disdain for The Pageant Mom, though. Urgo behaves like Bob McKillop compared to that total asshole.
True. I went a little overboard on the winning part.
Other than the issue in the handshake line with Rhoades, what else has Urgo done?
AA said that if a team is good and people hate on their coach/players it's a good thing b/c people would not care if they are losing.
He also yelled at Rhoades near the end of the game. He tends to complain quite a bit on calls. Hey, I like his enthusiasm but he is an opponent. He took my teams's COY when they won the league by three games and won the tournament. I knew Urgo would get it though. I guess to sum it up something about Urgo rubs me the wrong way BUT I respect what he does for the Fordham program.
That was my point. If a team is getting spanked coaches and players are an afterthought for other fans.
Fair enough.
Thanks Rich. I am glad you are with me even though I think your coach is an a-hole. Ha! You remember what I said about Urgo at the Village. I stand by it. He is a heck of a coach. Nothing like having a guy who motivates his team and the fanbase. Fordham has that.
I felt like when VCU played UMass that Dominquez was underutilized. What do your fans think about how Martin used him throughout the season?
We wanted him out there more for sure, and we wanted him more involved overall. There was a big issue where a lot of fans felt Martin was using his son too often as well...but that might be a different story.
Yeah. There’s a lot of rumors about Travis possibly on his way out. The AD just a couple of weeks ago said he would be the coach for a long time to come.
