Drums you see KP hurt his calf ?

reef

Maybe 8 minutes is a little low but this guy looks to be an 8th 9th type man on a good team so I wouldn’t expect him to average 12-15 minutes. If he’s supposed to be a 6th or 7th man then I wouldn’t be too thrilled

reef

UConn gets Liam McNeely , who was Cooper Flagg teammate and Aiden Mahoney who was a really good guard for St Mary’s , 2 excellent pickups

reef

FG% of 43 and 3 pt % of 29 isn't good. Maybe you think it is. He took 28 shots in the game he got 41. If he's doing that here, we're in big trouble. I've seen this posted by a few people. A FG percentage of 43% is not as poor as you and others are making it out to be. While shooting around 29-30% f...

reef

Ok 9 guys now , let’s get 2 more solid gets hopefully

reef

Sounds like a Nikola Akele type , fringe rotation piece great culture guy , if he gets 8 minutes a night and busts his backside that’s all we can ask for , heck he played in 28 games for Coach Pitino so he can probably do that here

Still hopeful we can get @ least 1 decent big for the rotation

reef

He would seem to fit the criteria discussed last week... EDIT: Also, I see STC threw out this name last week to. So shout out to them for potentially nailing this one! https://twitter.com/RhodyVault/status/1785014378393375213 Battle Tested knew before any of us, I think. Good intel from them. Yes ,...

reef

Traore played a season for Coach Pitino so that’s good , sounds like an 8th man hustle guy ?

reef

Yup Tennessee State the Alma mater of Ed Too Tall Jones

reef

Still plenty of time to get a couple decent big guys to compete for rotation minutes, the portal isn’t even closed yet , I’m optimistic

High Point. Good level for him this coming season. He does well and he can move up in level for the following season.

Has he discussed High Point U with J House ?

I like that pick , always good to have QB depth , and he could be a trade chip

How did you like him as the Vols QB ? I didn’t get to see him

Bos8 wrote: ↑2 days ago Not sure how to post a picture, but heading into the 4th round of the draft, ESPN has Lorenzo Thompson as the 16th ranked offensive tackle remaining.

I noticed that last night ! Hope he gets picked !

Who can you envision? Just guessing but maybe Charles Thomas on the short list, unless Joyce hires him back for the Dukes. He was an assistant last season at SLU and before that many years for Dambrot at Akron and Duquesne. He also happens to be from Dayton, Ohio. But the source said the person was...

Yes that’s the key Drums , get out and defend those 3s

The Heat beat us @ our own game !

Spo is a great coach , wish he was the Olympic coach over coach Kerr

reef

Yeah I don’t really get what the Falcs did considering their needs on defense

Nice !

Gregory last coached in 2023 , someone said the guy we are considering last coached in 2022

UConn baby ! He be a nice replacement for Cam Spencer

reef

Really nice pickup for us , can’t wait to watch him !

reef

Do we k ow of the guy is Turgeon or is that just speculation

reef

Awful loss last night just awful !

Coach Joey deserves half the blame and KP was horrific as well as Jrue

reef

I’m guessing the Pats stick @ 3 and draft Drake Maye !

reef

Really good pod , love the fact that JLaw can fly with the ball , Arch going to bring the Running Rams back

reef

Consistent scoring JLaw Bassy DG and JH all can avg double figs

reef

I have a very good theory (not a source this time lol) but it could be Mark Turgeon, he was seen behind the URI bench at the GW and GM away games in DC & Virginia and checks the boxes of former head coach and hasn’t coached since ‘22 Nice ! Had no idea he was @ the GM and GW games , wonder what...

reef

Yeah I’m actually on the Bassy train think it’s a nice pickup and I think he will do well , I’m thinking he averages over 12 a game as well as being a solid distributor in over 30 minutes as a starter and I've never seen him just 'give up' either...and I can't think of anyone on last year's team th...

BattleTested wrote: ↑5 days ago Looks like math is hard for me.. my source said he was last a head coach in 2022..So he has been out the past 2 seasons. So we should be looking at guys who left their jobs at the end of the 2022 season. My bad!!!

Cool can we compile the list of coaches who lost their jobs after 2022 ?

ramster wrote: ↑6 days ago Brea highly regarded……

Wow the bluest of bloods ! Hope he picks UConn , DH loves guys that shoot that 3

reef

Agree with those that want 2 more guys who play the 4 and 5 and able to crack the rotation , then we should be pretty formidable

reef

Here’s what I’ll say about Thomas. Experience and confidence are key to being an effective PG. You would hope some of those FR/SO year mistakes were due to trying to do too much and inexperience. I would expect some of that part of his game to be cleaned up. Can’t forget there where moments of his ...

reef

Arch find us 2 more rotation bigs !

reef

We have an interesting fan base. This rotation, as of 3:47 on 4/22, is already better than last year's and it's not even close. Bassy > Luis Sr House > Jr House Lawrence > Montgomery/Weston Sr Green > Jr ineligible Green So Fuchs > Fr Fuchs So Estevez > Fr Estevez Farrell is a TBD freshman defensiv...

reef

I figured Luis would be the one to leave , we will be much more uptempo with Bassy playing point instead of Luis walking the ball up

reef

I’m thinking we finish over .500 next season but not too gaudy of a record maybe 16-18 wins

reef

ramster wrote: ↑1 week ago

Great article Ramster, Bassy had a couple decent schools after him , glad Coach Carroll made a phone call

reef

Agree with those above Hammond is a loss but we did very well getting DLaw and Bassy , we got some good guards for sure

reef

Bassy has to be penciled in as the starting PG. Don’t see any way Thomas accepts URI’s offer and not be the starting PG in his final year of eligibility. Do you think that was promised? I'm not sure...I almost think he'd have come here for practically no promises at all. There's no question the dud...

Call me crazy but I’d love to have him as Green’s backup

Yes definitely he avg 7.4 rebounds in 27 minutes, huge list of schools though !

Arch will never ever press !

I watched the complete interview last night , very good listen

reef

Let’s shift the focus and find a couple bigs that can fit the rotation , our offense should be solid and more uptempo with Bassy in the fold

reef

jcru wrote: ↑1 week ago No way Bassy came back to be a backup. Starting PG

My thoughts exactly, I will be pretty shocked if Bassy doesn’t start

reef

Let’s get a couple of bigs now !

reef

Wow Bassy is back he’s back !

I would think someone is going to leave now maybe Luis ?

If he played for Dan, I have to think he has a good attitude and is a hard worker.
Maybe Dan can Put in a good word on URI to him!

I was thinking that also ! Steer him to URI , DH !
