Re: '24 VA PG Ben Hammond (URI LOI ---> ??? )
I agree, if Lawrence is a floor general type PG. However, some respected posters have indicated he may be more of a 2 guard (I don’t know myself as I haven’t done a deep dive on his game). I favor floor general/coach on the floor type PG’s and I hope Lawrence fills that role for us. He's not a floo...

Re: A10 Outlook for 2024-25
Some of these transfers just don't make much sense. This is 1 of them. Follows his coach across the country.

Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
Loyola is doing what I thought Archie would do. They are killing us so far. Hopefully, that will change. Is it really fair to compare ourselves to them? They had one bad year after a bunch of key players graduated and got right back on track. Their program was waaaaay healthier than ours. I know so...

Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
Bottom line, in my opinion, is we have zero D1 point guards on the roster right now so I think we need two (I don't consider Kortright a true PG even if he does come back). How we end up getting there is anyone's guess! I'd go as far to say having Hammond + either of those portal PG's makes us a si...

I'd say he is probably more talented...at least more athletic than any of our other guards.
