Due to his turnovers Thomas is incapable of being a competent floor general. It doesn't matter if he goes up the floor at the speed Archie wants if it's going right back down the other way even faster when the opponent gets a fast break off of his mistakes. It's not just that we know he's unplayabl...

Irv Chatman https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/irv-chatman-1.html He was a defensive force and rebounder on the '78 team. He didn't have to score a lot. We had Sly Williams, Jiggy Williamson and Stanley Wright, 3 all-time greats, for that. Averaged 1.4 pts per game at TN. Was not a big co...

Yeah it's depth guys that are left. Having 3 core guys who've played together, and a bench guy who has, is a key these days. For some reason I think people are dismissing how much Green being out of basketball/practice and not expecting to play this year affected him and the team. I expect a big ju...

He's not coming back

Although it would be nice if he wasn't made of glass and was coming back!

https://youtu.be/0mTe6d74O9c?si=JrlxnGdNT1_iLVwd Here's his final game at Albany, at Vermont in the AEC conference tournament. He puts up 31 points here.

Money or not, it's a hard job for Miller to attract talent here. Recruits know we suck and have sucked for a while. Might mean we have to offer more than our peers to get players here. It's not just about playing time anymore. We have to somehow have enough success to make it easier to recruit. It'...

The only good tournaments URI seems to get into more recently seem to be restricted to when it plays at Mohegan Sun. Unfortunately that can only happen every four years. Given we are coming off four straight losing seasons and do not travel well outside this area, we are not really a desirable team...

Every game archie was waving to push the pace and luis just didnt do it and looked like he was sucking air. He had a high floor which was a good contrast to the rest of the team but Archie always praised bassy for how fast he is so i am thinking its pretty clear what archie is looking for. Luis was...

Now we have Bassy and Always! Bwuhahah

PeterRamTime

Remains to be seen if it was an upgrade or downgrade but it was clear that at least 1 was going to go portaling from current back court after adding 2. My preference would have been Ways, but my #2 would be Luis. Too much of a tweener and we have better options at the 2 and 3 spot. I think Luis lea...

PeterRamTime

https://x.com/jamieshaw5/status/1782434292892590487?s=46 Kinda saw that coming. Wish him the best! Thomas and Lawrence at PG is an upgrade. Even if Ways is back too, he will be a better player. Won't have to rely on him though. It was hard to see how Luis worked out here considering the moves we ma...

Didn’t you say you live in Nashville? Go to Broadway, go to The Gulch. Go watch the Predators playoff games. Don’t be counting the goddamn centers in the transfer portal.

PeterRamTime

It is hard not to like Bassy’s attitude, desire to play for us -his hustle, his improvement, his ability to run through a wall for his team and the intangibles that he brings to the team. That being said, my question is where does he stand compared to the other A10 guards that we compete against. H...

PeterRamTime

I really hope Bassy has been on the phone trying to recruit Miranda. I would think he would have some good selling points. That could get me excited for next year. We really need some more positive additions to keep us all out of Rhody Rehab. It would be a lot of fun having 2 RI kids helping us get...

PeterRamTime

Also, this is not a knock on Hammond as I was excited to see him play here and develop, but since when did a true freshman PG lead a team to a title of some sorts? And yes, in high school games Hammond was pressuring the ball very well. Doesn’t mean he’d be effectively doing that from day 1 in a gu...

PeterRamTime

I like the Lawrence pickup Not sure how I feel about Thomas. Can see pros and cons to it but willing to see how rest of roster shapes up. What you need in this league is 2-3 dogs and then role guys. Our issue last year was a bunch in the middle with House and Green our highest end talent. You eithe...

I concur.

I don’t understand how we would lose more guards. Teams need at least 4/5 guards. Yeah Bassy is the only guy who would solely play the PG. Ways is def left out. Luis/JLaw can play 1-3. They'd provide spot duty along with playing the 2 and 3 with Cam and House. The only thing is the wing player we g...

I said "our record". I stand by that. Do you stand on business? There were several games, but the one I can think of right away is the game we beat UMass and Cross was out. I'm pretty sure that's a loss if Cross plays. And like I said, there were a few like that. We don't lose to UNH, Del...

Blue Man, are you okay? You had posted many times that KJ wasn't leaving, and you would have the last laugh. You also said that Hammond was staying because of Archie.

Like it. Use Albany as our feeder program. Send Wright there to play and improve and bring him back next year. Archie is a genius Or if Ways stays and redshirts I'd be totally cool with that too!

It takes talent and effort to play it. We didnt have much of either last season. We are still about 3 beers short of a six pack in order to rectify the issues.

Yeah URI (tried to?) play Packline. The larger point is UVA which won a national championship playing Packline got smoked multiple times this past season. Obliterated.
