Rhode Island had a 70-58 lead last night at Creighton with 3:14 left to go in the game. They lost 74-73 on a 3 pointer with 3 seconds left.

Rhode Island may have had the biggest meltdown of any basketball team I have ever seen. On February 12, they were 20-4. Then they lost to Temple in overtime, lost to XU by 4 then completely fell apart. They lost 8 out of their last 9 games to finish 21-12. All of that in about 1 month's time.

Have a nice summer Jim Baron.

This season's results will not go into my list of Rhode Island Fun Facts.

NIT or not, it would have been another nice little perception "building block" for an A10 team to have taken out a leading MVC team.

Pathetic.

What a complete fraud. They aren't even an Island.

Could you imagine the meltdown if this ever happened in Muskie Nation? What a complete and total collapse.

The were nationally ranked and a lock for the dance. They had some legit talent. Baron is going to have a fun summer indeed. That is an ugly situation.

See my thread over on "Around the NCAA". Nice Choke job fellas! That was an excellent clinic on how to lose a basketball game.

It's gonna be a LONG offseason for Jim Baron. That was inexcusable.
