I'm guessing Tom Ostrom, now at Drake. Another possibility would be Bruiser Flint, although I think he's following Cal. Interesting that Wyoming transfer Cam Manyawu (6’9 F) just visited Drake. Could Ostrom influence him to pick URI? Assuming of course that Ostrom is the guy. Saint Louis - April 15...

Interesting to see the NBE's Villanova get their #3 Scorer in the Nation recruited away by Iowa of the Big 10 as a huge gap exists with Caitlin Clark #1 in WNBA Draft.

My man. Standing by his guns. Tough guy on the boards. LOL. Can URI currently contribute to NIL? No, they cannot. You are defiant on this aren't you? You think fans should pay for players and the schools reap the benefits? Well, I'm sure you weren't a frequent visitor to Ballentine Hall. Just watch...

I'm still not sold on Loyola. Wake me up when they actually bring something to the table. No, making the NIT and losing to Bradley in the first round isn't bringing something to the table They bring plenty to the table as noted by the presidents’s council, even regardless of their record. Adding th...

VCU should be a top contender in the A10 for 24-25. Only 1 player so far in the portal; Wheeler who averaged about 5 minutes last season. Yeah forsure. They do lose a couple guys to eligibility exhaustion in Bairstow and Shulga at a minimum. Shulga still has another year (Covid) if he decides to us...

My guess is he goes to a power conference. It's a combination of money and going big time. GM? I doubt it. I doubt George Mason as well, but it’s a good “stay at home” option if he prefers that. Why go to URI if he can stay in A10 16 miles from home? I agree he goes P5 which is where he would end u...

Let’s see where Hammond lands too Rambone. Money is part of the equation but not all George Mason is 16 miles from Paul VI. Could stay home and play in same A10 Conference Or he could aim for a P5 or NBE team Hammond was not seen at a single URI game this season. Not all that surprising he would opt...

If everyone on this board gave $10 like you said, I bet Hammond becomes affordable. I hold anyone who can donate but chooses not to accountable. He was affordable. We got him. Kenny left. The money wasn’t everything when that happened. I refuse to believe that he doesn't "have a price." I...

I didn’t think Hammond was coming so I’m not surprised. I won’t form an opinion until I see the final roster. Lawerence was a great get. I wish Hammond the best. What a fucking waste of time watching him play…. College basketball sucks. At least I get to see my Lakers get swept by the Nuggets now. ...

Archie must have really hurt Vaults feelings. Imho, Vault brings no value to me as a fan and brings no value to the program. True Jdrums#3, but I’ll take it a step further and say Rhody Vault brings negative value to the program. What he puts out on URI MBB is heavily biased against the team and co...

Down to 7 Long way to go til November Likely more movement to come as players are added to the roster in the remaining 6 months (half a year!!)to go til November.

Excellent news signing Lawrence. We need a stronger starting 5 to really move upwards to Top Tier A10. He gives us a solid potential starter - a good starter.
Good work by the staff!!

I just find it pathetic/funny in a said way/hopeless all we’ve had this offseason are multiple players leaving, coach leaving, and ZERO incoming transfers. Archie is not doing things on fans' timeline. Lets see what the staff and roster looks like when it's done. Potential benefits to waiting. Stil...

Traore and Manyawu do not move the meter Traore hasn't played and basically plays the same position as DG and Farrell. If he plays at the 5 he is undersized.
