May 1: Bobby will work with our guards and forwards on outside shooting, and defense, since those were the things he did best. It will be great working with him.

Jeffy is a freshman here and he’ll do stats for us and sit in on the coaches’ meetings.

June 26: 4 scholarships. Looking at 20 recruits.

Aug. 7: Marv Gany is #16 on the Norton list.

Aug. 21: We offer to 3 PGs. We want a big but don’t see one we like.

Sept. 18: We get a PG.

We’re going to the JAG Holiday. Tough schedule with a few ranked teams.

Oct. 2: We got a PF.


We have a few good players back, and a few newbies who looked good at practice today. Ted Brag looks really good inside. Bobby wasn’t shy in his new role, which is great.

We’re picked behind Dayton again.

May is about the same. Dave says he really needs a caregiver there whenever he and Jeffy are not at home. May’s mom is great but she doesn’t have the strength to help May get to where she needs to go. With the state of health insurance these days that will cost a fortune but there’s no choice. We’ll be moving within a couple of years.

“Either that or my family will go on welfare.”

Oct. 23: We got a 2nd PF. Just want a 2nd PG now.

Nov. 6: We’re going with a 6 man rotation again. We don’t like it but it is what it is. Seniors Ben Fine and Jed Troy, and soph Mick Lee will be at guard. We had hoped to play senior Marv Gany at PF, his natural position, and he’ll play some there, but he’ll start at SF. Inside are frosh Ted Brag and junior Juco Len Nich. We really think this team can go someplace.

Bobby has made a noticeable difference with our outside shooting. We’ll see if it sticks. Jeffy is giving us some really expanded stats. Having him on board has been a definite help.
Our kids are doing Dave and I proud. Oh, Dave officially adopted Jeffy on Jeffy’s 18th birthday. It was a beautiful thing to be part of.

Davey continues to grow like a very wide weed. At 4 ½ he has 7 year olds for breakfast. He was born to be a linebacker but don’t let Dave hear that. He was also born to be a Power Forward and he already plays with a basketball. Dave is smart enough not to push, but Davey comes to practice now and then and loves all the attention he gets from the players.

May is confined to a wheelchair, of course, but she will continue to come to all of our home games, and she comes to practice now and then, too. Dave is an incredibly wonderful dad and husband. I am proud to call him my friend.

Nov. 13: We start with Marquette at home, then it’s off to #25 Utah. We’ll learn a lot from these two tough games.

Two of our committed recruits fell in the ratings like they had rocks attached to their ankles, and the third lost ground as well. Oh well, it happens. Maybe they’ll be okay.

“It can’t be easy, Dave.”

“I love her, Red. When you’re a kid you don’t see it goin’ the way it went but maybe I
realize how much she an’ Jeffy, an’ Davey of course, mean ta me more because of all this. I guess it ain’t easy but it don’t matter. I’m with her all the way, no matter what. I just wish she had less pain.
An’ I don’t worry about the money part. We’ll do what we gotta do. Wouldn’t want ta be doin’ all a this without you, buddy.”

“No worries on that, Dave.”

Nov. 20: 87-60 with Marquette. 32, 6, 4, 4 for Marv. 12, 5, 2 for Len Nich, and 12, 3, 5 for Jed Troy. 8 TOs. This was an impressive debut. We really played well.

56-71 at #25 Utah.
Tough team. 10, 12 for Nick but he fouled out. 12, 9 for Ted Brag, 11 each for our guards Jed and Ben. They really focused on stopping Marv and they held him to 9, 6, 2. Lots of foul calls, about even but they’re deep and we play 6 guys. We needed 10 tonight and #7-10 are not ready for prime time.

This week one game, 0-1 Mississippi ST here.

Nov. 27: 71-52 with MS ST. 18, 5, 1, 8, 2 for Marv, 16, 4, 7 for ben, 12, 8 for Ted. 13 TOs, 31 RBs.

At 2-2 Rutgers this week.

Dec. 4: 63-55 at Rutgers. 20 for Ted, 13 each for Jed and Mick, 5 and 9 for Len before he went down. 11 TOs, 31 RBs.

It was a hugely costly victory. Our starting center, Len Nich, broke his leg. He is out for 6-7 weeks.

At #11 Charlotte, 5-2, this week.

"It stinks but better now than later. Len'll be back in January, for most a the conf. season- if the docs are right."

Dec. 11: 59-67 at #11 Charlotte. 14, 11, 2 for Ted, 14, 5 for Jed, 11, 4, 3, 2 for Ben, but 20 TOs. Part of that was fatigue. Our starters are playing a lot of minutes, and this is as tough a team as we’ll play before conf. play starts.

“Not bad with only a week a practice without Len.

This week we're at the Fryers, 7-1.

Dec. 18: 63-81 at Prov. They jumped all over us early and we never got in it. There were a lot of bad calls, most against us. Dave got a T, mostly out of frustration. He kept it together though. 15, 5, 3 for Ben.

“It’s gonna be a long d*mn month.”

Yes it is.

This week we host #10 Tulsa, 8-2, and then off to the JAG Holiday, where we play 9-1 #16 Penn.

Dec. 25: 58-43 with #10 Tulsa. The D was incredible. 17, 10, 5, 5 for Marv, 12, 10 for Ted, 11, 2, 2, 5 for Ben. We forced 24 TOs.

86-68 with #16 Penn. The shooting was on fire. 23 for Mick Lee, 18, 5, 8, 8 for Marv, 17, 2, 3 for Ben, 15, 3, 2 for Jed, 8, 10, 2 for Ted, 9 TOs.

“They’re lookin’ great but they’re tired. These back ta back games are tough.

8-3 Xavier in the semis, 62-49. 20 for Jed, 13 for Marv, good D, good bench play, +9 RBs.

Later tonight it will be #17 Memphis, 8-4, for the title.

This coming week, due to a computer error, we have 2 games tomorrow- yeah. We play NC ST, 9-1, at home, and 3-6 Davidson, there. Then back home for VCU, 3-5, and ending 7 games in 8 days at home with 4-4 UMass.

XMas on the road. May can’t travel by plane so we spent some televideophone time together with Davey and her on the big screen for present opening. Jean and Sandy were also part of the vid.

January 1, 2035: 89-86 in OT with #17 Memphis for the JAG title. 18, 4, 8, 3 for Ben, 6 in double figures. 27 TOs but somehow we hung in. Great bench play.

75-60 vs. NC ST. 20, 8, 2, 3 for Marv, 17, 5, 5, 2 for Ben. 7 TOs.

70-81 at Davidson. 18 TOs, -5 RBs, not a lot of D.

53-40 vs. UMass. 4, 10, 7, 12 for Marv. 8 TOs, 30 RBs.

This week we’re at Geo. Wash., 9-2, and we host ST Louis, 5-7.

103-94 vs. ST. L. 25, 12 for Marv, 29, 2, 3, 2 for Mick, 21 for Jed, 16, 1, 6, 2 for Ben. 9 TOs.

Ranked! #21. RPI #3.

A one game week and the last missed game for Len Nich. At 6-9, 2-3 St. Bonnie’s.

[/BMarc Camm strained a knee. About 10 days.

85-75 at VCU.] 25 for Jed, 20, 5, 4, 6 for Marv. Having Mick Lee coming from the bench really helps us.

9-9 East Carolina is here this week.

Jan. 29:[B] 83-70 with E. Car.
22, 4, 4, 8 for Marv, 21, 5 for Ted, 8 TOs.

(Author’s note: Yet ANOTHER scheduling glitch. For the 2nd time this season URI has 2 games on the same day. It happened on 12/26 and now on 1/30.)

This week we’re at 8-10, 3-6 LaSalle, and 1-19, 1-10 St. Joseph’s. Then we host 5-15, 5-6 Fordham.

We’re alone in 2nd, 2 back of Dayton.

Bud Smit hurt his shoulder. Day to day.

March 8: 77-68 over Richmond. 28, 7, 3, 4 for Marv, 19, 3 for Len, 15, 3 for Ted. 7 TOs.

Mick Lee got a pretty bad bruise on his head when he went to the floor. He’s probably out of the title game.

#1 in the country Dayton, 32-1, 18-0.

March 9: 67-62 over #1 Dayton for the title! 25, 3, 1, 5 for tourney MOP Marv, 14, 6, 1, 4 for Ted, 12, 7, 4 blocks for Len. We overcame -13 RBs to be the #1 team in the country.

March 12: We think the win over Dayton could get us a #2 seed. 27-6, 15-3, #15, RPI #4.

#4 East, We play #13 Presbyterian, 23-7.

Dave is really angry.

“We shoulda been at least a #3, prob’ly a #2, and not in the toughest bracket.”

March 16: 81-62. 6 in double figures over Presbyterian, 11 RBs for Ted. 9 TOs, 35 RBs.

Next is #5 seed, #18 ranked Arizona, 21-8.

March 18: 85-64 over Arizona. 21, 8, 4 for Ted, 15, 11, 2, 6 for Marv, 18, 4 for Len, 13, 5, 3 for Ben.13 TOs, 35 RBs.

March 23: 54-74.
3-19 on threes, 17 TOs. FL was just better tonight. Last game for Marv, Jed and Ben.

#1 Dayton also lost so the A10 is out.

April 4: #2 Syracuse won it all.

Awards: Marv made 2nd team All American. In conf., Marv was MOP, Def. MOP, 1st team. Ted Brag was frosh OY and 1st team. Ben Fine made 2nd team.

April 9: Some very good schools called but none in New England.

April 23: We ask for a facilities upgrade. Nope.

We end the season at 29-7. Ranked 14, RPI #4. Dave’s #s are: 461-192, .706, Reputation up to 71, after 21 seasons.

(Author’s Note: Almost lost the association. We crashed exiting the Awards screen. Both saves and one backup were locked up. The second backup saved me... for now anyway.)

May 1: Dave and I talked about May and about his finances.

“It ain’t good. She’s either doped up or in a h*ll of a lot of pain, and she’s in pain even when she is doped up, just not as much.

“As ta the money. We can stay here this season, maybe one more, but that’s it. I’m outta money some time late in that second season the way I figure it. Hope something turns up next year cuz that second year we’ll need ta go ta where the money is, like it or not.”

Dave wants to fulfill his dream of winning a national title at URI, but I’m not sure we can do that within two years. We’re getting better all the time but I don’t see us as quite at the level we need to be at to win it all.

June 16: We get 2 transfers, junior sf Scot Hall from Houston, and junior PF Matt Roy from Geo. Mason.

June 26: Marv Gany was drafted #28. That’s a steal. He’s much better.

2 scholarships and we need guards. Looking at 10.

July 4: Down to 5.

July 25: Down to 3 but we hope to get commitments from 2 of them. All are interested.

Aug. 21: Offered to 2 PGs who have us highly rated.


Sept. 18: Still chasing the 2 PGs.

No in season tourney. 4 ranked teams on the schedule.

Sept. 25: Lost one.

Oct. 2: Got both PGs we're now offering to.

Lots of questions about this team, but it’s early.

Apparently others have questions. In what is a weak conf. this year we are picked 4th, behind Dayton, UMass, and GW.

“Hope they’re full a crap!”

May is weaker. She spends at least half the day in bed. They get her into a recliner when possible. She gets PT and OT services as well, but she spends a lot of time reading and watching TV. She has an electronic reader because it is easier to manipulate than a book.

She is very brave about all that she is going through. She doesn’t complain.

Nov. 6: Junior Mich. ST transfer and junior Mick Lee will start at guard with soph Marc Camm subbing. Junior juco Tom More will start at SF backed by junior Dan Grim. Inside soph Ted Brag and senior Len
Nich return. Tom More will play inside some.

We start at #20 Kansas, and then at Arkansas. Real tests to open.
