Re: Whose # should be up in the rafters?
How about Andre Samuel? IMHO...One of the most unsung players in program history. Points, Rebounds, Steals? You name it. He did it all. I think he was listed at 6'5" but he was closer to 6'4". Started from day 1 and was a huge contributor on some great Rhody teams that competed in a tough ...

Re: Not All Conspiracies are Fake: Archie Miller Next HC of URI
Thank you for nailing this slam dunk hire, Thorr! Game-changer!
I was also there in SacTown 5 years ago to the day and it was magical. With this hire, we will have days like that again.
