When the Friars come to Chicago, I attend. I don’t get many opportunities to see the Friars live anymore, so I take advantage of it when I can. These were my thoughts, during the second half of the game, from the 16 minute mark onward. For the past few years, the Friars have struggled playing...

Any fan of a Big East basketball team signs up for a roller coaster ride that starts at the end of December and goes throughout the first few weeks of March, wrapping up at Madison Square Garden.

Brad Wachtel has been described as the best bracketologist you've never heard of. While he may not yet have the national popularity of others that project the NCAA tournament field, his history of being able to predict the bracket is unmatched. In fact, from 2008 to 2010 he was the most accurate of the...

Xavier may have given the Friars a run for their money in the paint, but at the end of the day it was the Friars who ate the heartiest on the stat line, beating the Musketeers 81-72. Xavier not only ate Providence’s lunch in the paint, they had a buffet. The fifth-ranked Musketeers made...

The conversation, however, has been almost about two different teams. The team that dismantled St. John’s with a high octane offense that...

While all didn't go smoothly during the nonconference season for the Providence Friars, they certainly began Big East play in style, running past St. John's 94-72. Getting their senior playmaking point guard Kyron Cartwright back healthy, the Friars controlled the second half after taking a one point lead into halftime. It's easy to see how...

After a very successful nonconference campaign, the 8-3 URI Rams begin their Atlantic 10 season on December 30th vs a much improved George Mason team at the Ryan Center. The game is at 4:00pm, and can be seen on Yurview New England, Channel 4 or 1004, for customers of Cox Communications. Not a Cox customer?...

I don’t get to see as many games live as I used to, so when I had the chance to drive down to Mohegan Sun to see the Friars play the Houston Cougars I didn’t hesitate. There were two trains of thought going into this game: the first was that the Friars, despite injuries, would...
