Seems like Twitter and the Pittsburgh press are scooping Ronnie too, hinting at what the trick up the sleeve might be:

Quote:


The Minutemen have struggled mightily this year but according to the coaching staff, they are poised to surprise some people and make a serious run to close out the A10 conference slate. The dribble-drive offense that Kellogg brought with him from Memphis is apparently going to be unleashed in ways that will surprise some fans and opponents. Although the staff obviously isn't about to reveal any trade secrets, one assistant coach may have inadvertently slipped us some inside information. "We didn't expect it to happen so soon but City managed to swallow skinny man at the team breakfast this morning", said innovative assistant coach Vinnie Van Wohl-Berg. "My plan is nearly complete". Sounds like some kind of secret code to us.

The skinny man would be Putney. That would about sum up the season when Putney loses his redshirt year by slamming home the pass for the one-point lead with one second left, only to get a technical foul because he did not properly report in to the game.

He also called Thor Bjorn Thor Bjornssen when interviewing him during the halftime show of the URI game.

I thnk someone may have spoken to Josh, because I believe the last time he called one he actually said "alley" and not "ollie." Oh well, all good things come to an end.

Dukes coach Ron Everhart said. "We have to extend the defense out on the perimeter and protect the 3-point line because of how well they shoot it." Shocked

This is a gut-check game for this team. It is always hard to win on the road, but if they start off strong like the Memphis game, this is a winnable game. Come on guys, get the momentum started tonight.
