Ouch.. We can't compete with those programs

steveystuds06

And Malik Mack commits right after they announce Kenny...just a coincidence, I guess...... Yup, the rumor for weeks was that KJ was taking a great player with him to Gtown. Let's see how we respond after losing our top assistant.. Until we see the final roster, I expect Archie to build a better tea...

My brother graduated from Ohio State, so I root for them after Rhody. Zed had a bad year this season, but I think he'll be great at Dayton. Great get.

I hope we land someone soon!!

Luis was the most clutch player on our team. He was a leader and had some great games. I don't think he's a starter on a top-four A10 team, but having a guy who can run the point and play off the ball is great.

steveystuds06

We don't want him here if Hammond decides to bail because he has to fight to start or be a key piece off the bench. Every player should earn their spot. I don't think Hammond would have to worry too much. He is still the only true point guard on this roster. I'm not counting Ways because he won't pl...

steveystuds06

If Hammond is still coming, I don’t think we would land both Coit and Lawerence. Lawrence is more of the player we lacked last year. Coit is another dude who can get you 25 any night but takes a lot of shots, and if he’s cold, he doesn’t affect the game. Lawrence is solid on both ends. He has played...

Nice!

Depends how much of a jump Cam makes this year. But he’s definitely better than the Cam we had last year.

He had a solid year in the big10 and had some good games against legitimate competition. I’d be very happy to land him.

steveystuds06

Exactly. And is everyone going to demand that we pay whatever school our new coach comes from to? Well, it doesn't appear that we have a new coach during this critical time involving the portal. Instead, we're paying a guy to recruit elite players to another school. If it's true that Kenny has been...

steveystuds06

Don’t give up on Wright yet, don’t rely on him either, he is the kind of athlete who may figure it out eventually. If he does he will be a good player. I no issue filling out the bottom third of the roster with “low major” players who work hard and may improve to be more. I had no issue keeping Ror...

steveystuds06

Two players should not be on our team next year: Wright and Traore. They are low-major players. However, I'm completely confused about why people wouldn't get excited about Manyawu. This reminds me of the people who were negative about Green when he also put up decent numbers in the conference USA....

Will there be an option on Rhody excellence website to choose what program your contributions go to? When I contributed it did give you options as to where the contributions go. I specifically picked the MBB program. Hmmm interesting. Just logged into my account that’s already active and there was ...

Hey everyone, I've spoken with Thorr about the concerns of some fans on our message board who seem hesitant to donate without a clear understanding of where their contributions are directed. I proposed the idea of compiling a list of questions from our fanbase and sending them to both him and Stone,...

steveystuds06

Dre Davis would be an incredible add but ya chances are slim

steveystuds06

If we can't do better than Traore, we will be in serious trouble.

steveystuds06

We aren't orbiting anything, we've burned up in the atmosphere. Stealth recruiting my ass, not only nothing is happening we're still wondering if KJ is leaving along with Hammond. Again wake me if we pick up a couple promising transfers. Like Judge Smails said in the movie Caddyshack, "well we...

steveystuds06

Yeah I would be thrilled with him. When we played him was his second game back after a month long injury. I remember him being a problem for Kentucky when Joe's played them. I dont think he'll ever be first team all big east or anything, but he has the size and skill to be a really good player for ...

steveystuds06

Ehh whatever. He's solid but nothing special. Fuchs and Green outplayed him when we played them. If we had gotten him we would be thrilled. You guys always say bigs take time to develop. Looks like his numbers were pretty good for a freshman big. Hey at least we're doing a good job of observing the...

https://x.com/portal_updates/status/1778159550161408006?s=46&t=NTydXGgoYaTZr0wF3SgCbQ He would be a great upgrade replacement at wing for Zek and Weston. Archie should be very familiar with him; Gillis is from Indiana. I don't see the Big10 6th man of the year coming to URI, but who knows? Many...

Kenny is going to bring in better recruits than Green and House. Im not worried about that.. If the new rumor is true we may not even be losing Kenny. We'll see

steveystuds06

It's on Archie. Assistants come and go. Dan lost some great assistants. KJ will do great with more money, but he hasn't done much for us, and neither has Archie. Maybe a new assistant is what we need to get out of this decline. The rumors went from KJ being gone early last week to KJ staying. Then, ...

steveystuds06

Apparently, KJ has a recruit he would take to GTOWN, but it's not one of ours. My guess is we wouldn't be able to afford that player here. I don't think anyone truly knows. There are GTOWN people on Twitter claiming it's a done deal. I think that's who Scott Brand and others are hearing from. We wil...

steveystuds06

I don't think Dan goes to Kentucky either, but they are one of those programs that could make such a good offer that he might need to entertain it. Getting offered by decent high majors while he was at Rhody is one thing. Getting offered a stupid amount of money to coach at one of the biggest progra...

steveystuds06

Coit would be a huge get. He and House would be a problem on the offensive end. The only thing with Coit is if he comes, I don't see how Hammond plays much unless you want two undersized point guards on the floor.

steveystuds06

Dan wasn't a good offensive coach at Wagner and the early years at Rhody. Just like players, coaches get better. Dan has drastically improved his offense, and he's going to go down as an all-time great. I would love to see him win three straight, but they lose a lot after they win on Monday. Either ...

UConn has dominated, but they haven’t faced a 1-2 seed in the last two tournaments. This will be their toughest test. I think people are underestimating Edey and Purdue. As he has against everyone else, Edey will dominate in the post and likely get UConn into foul trouble. I’d put $$ on UConn winnin...

steveystuds06

Edey is a problem man. He fouls out everyone and really does have a nice hook shot. His eyes are always peaked for his shooters too. Nah he sucks. He’s only good because the refs bail him out. No skill. No talent. Anyone his size could do what he does.. This isn’t impressive at all… https://x.com/j...

steveystuds06

Purdue is so annoying to guard. You either deal with Edey, who's a monster, or you double him, and he throws to a 40% 3-point shooter. So far, the Edey haters can't use free throws as an excuse. He's got 14 and 8 at the half and took two free throws. Also Edey didn't sit the entire first half.. That...

steveystuds06

Hammond had issues against the bigger athletic guards in the last two games. He’ll definitely face similar challenges next year. But man he’s so fast and smart with the ball. Overall it was another impressive showing for our point guard. Now let’s get this kid in Kingston and wearing Rhody Blue.

steveystuds06

I don’t think they’re talking about KJ. Otherwise why would they wait to announce it? It’s probably a coach of a FF team. That said, again, Hammond and his coaches have talked about Archie Miller as a main reason for coming to URI. Also, with how overbearing and involved Georgetown boosters are - d...

steveystuds06

Hammond looked great yet again. His shot also looks great today. However, I've seen plenty of games where his outside shot wasn't falling. In my opinion, the two things that prevented him from going to a high major are his size and his 3-point shot. I want to make sure we don't expect this kid to c...

Count me in the team House camp. Without a true PG and playing 1/2 the year as the #1 target for a defense, he managed to be a pretty efficient scorer jumping up a level from what he was used to. 14 ppg in the A10 isn't nothing. Nice to have a guy capable of going off at any point. 1 year left I th...

steveystuds06

Bronny is a good athlete. Good defender. Definitely not a high major player. I’d be surprised if he’s a good A10 player honestly,

That's great news! This kid is an absolute monster on the offensive end

Yes I know it's one move but this is absolutely filthy.

steveystuds06

I’m not saying Edey doesn’t get away with some no-calls or missed calls, but if I had the time, I could easily compile a bunch of missed calls from yesterday going the other way when he is involved in the play. Easily. That said, EVERY game has tons of missed calls. It’s just the way it is. Edey is...

steveystuds06

With the whistles, Edey is borderline unwatchable. It is impossible, literally impossible, to be that big, play 40 minutes, play 100% of your game directly under the basket, while only committing 1 foul. When one player is getting to the line more than the entire other team...that's not a good prod...

Here's the latest Portal Tracker for Rhody: Portal-Tracker'24.png I decided to do a little digging.

I’m seeing a bunch of people complain that Edey went to the line a lot.. His size, footwork, and ability to finish around the rim make him a force in the paint.

Would love a Purdue UConn finals. Best two teams this year. And that’s what I have in my bracket. Edey is unstoppable. What a great game

steveystuds06

Ant Harris was a high-major player. Alex was a high-major player. Weston was a high-major player. Max Ambas played at Oral Roberts and was one of Texas’s best players this season, or close to it. Timberlake went from Hofstra to Kansas. Aaron Estrada played at Hofstra; he’s now one of the better play...

Marquette was awful 1h just awful ! Reef, how is Purdue looking tonight. I haven’t been watching but checked on line and saw they were up 16 late. I expected Zaga to keep it closer.

UConn looks strong against SDSU. AZ can’t hit a 3 to save their lives against Clemson. Yeah, I thought UConn would have a tough game against Auburn, but once they lost, I figured they would kill whoever they played today. The only two teams I think could beat UConn if they play their A game and UCo...
