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 ...

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

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: ↑2 days 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 !

If Arch disses the packline defense I will not be upset !

Yeah I’d like to know his top 3 reasons for choosing URI

I recall the Hazards that played @ SK in the mid 80s

Ostrom is at Vandy
He just got hired there, definitely won’t be him
Martelli SR then? any other guesses?

I am a YES on Phil Martelli SR , that be a nice 1-2 combo Arch and him

reef

Now all the injuries are piling up , we weren’t a deep team as it is , not feeling good about the post season !

reef

I would have guessed more assists then I saw the Vault quote about he’s more of a 2 than a 1

Looks like he’s looking for a bigger role than he had with Nebraska so that could be good for us !

reef

I’m expecting him to score maybe 12 a game hopefully with 4 dimes and hopefully he is one of our better defenders

reef

I'm as disappointed about Hammond leaving as anyone else, but it's not the end of the world and some of these responses are a little over the top. Players decommitting isn't really even anything new. When Jared Terrell asked out of his LOI from Oklahoma State and came to URI instead I don't recall ...

Yeah I’m with Kyle on this , I wouldn’t look too much into that

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.

After the Hammond debacle, why should we waste our time trying to recruit high level high school talent. Go straight to the portal and maybe after a couple of good seasons, if that’s even possible, you look back into recruiting freshman again. A couple of interesting things I noticed while watching...

Hate to lose Ben but great to add D Lawrence !

Even if Ben came here and had a great season the odds were probably low that we had him more than 1 year

Again, props to the staff on getting Lawrence. I really didn't think we get a PG transfer this good in the portal. I liked him immediately once I saw him play as a freshman. He had some huge games against top teams.\ This praise from Tom Izzo. “The Lawrence kid is going to be a hell of a player,” I...

Doesn't seem like a ton of portal guys have committed yet..like across the country. Slow moving portal season.

Agree and I think the last 2 weeks of April there are going to be tons of commitments coming , let’s hope we get some good ones!

Would love nothing more than Ed Cooley falling flat on his face @ Gtown , he gets a pass year 1 but you would expect some improvement in year 2 I just don't think you get a pass when you have unlimited money to go and buy a team. If I'm a Gtown fan I think the most "tempered" of expectati...

To me Tyson Wheeler makes all the sense in the world: Experienced Assistant Coach in New England Bleeds Keaney Blue Undersized star PG to mentor Hammond (and convince him to stay?)
