Nice of you to completely skip over the fact you fell for ANOTHER easily detectable troll account.
I'm not as perfect as you think you are.
Hey, that's Captain Callout you're talking to... pretty sure no clapping back allowed

Yeah, sorry 'bout that.

This account was created in March, has 78 tweets and 96 followers. His bio, amongst other things, reads “Father of 2 virgins” and is a PC fan account. Complete troll. You really think that is a legitimate news breaking account? Has a tweet saying Foumena committed to LSU. Has a tweet saying Gavin G...

Well I’m givin this one the old bump bumperoo!! I just pony’d up the dough to Tyler for another year of Rhode Island Ram 🐏 Men’s Hoops. Who else is in? He’s gonna be calling have your credit card ready! Go Rams! I already got a call from Tyler, got a letter in the mail to renew and got several emai...

Big recruiting news involving a local player. This kid from Fall River is a stud. Let's hope it's not PC.

Billyboy78

Remember when BillyBoyOldMan claimed he did not care about College Basketball anymore because Hammond left. And that he was done with it. But yet posts 19 times a day. Yeah clearly you do not care anymore. LMAOOOO Yes, obviously I care. It's in my blood and has been for 55 years. Sorry a teenager (...

I don’t believe binding letters of intent were used during the Sly Williams era. He merely changed his mind on the train trip to Rhode Island. Read Bob Terino's book. There's a great story about what happened there. 78, could you share a synopsis of the story when you have time? I haven’t read the ...

Billyboy78

The literal first sentence of YOUR post says "I think Green could end up at shooting guard." So yes, you thickheaded idiot, you did say Green at 2 . Jesus Christ (sorry for triggering some of you), you're going for the leg sweep huh, Johnny? Lol To quote the Falcon, "he's out of line...

Check out his per 40 stats 23.4 ppg 2.0 BLKS 13.4 REBS So by your analysis Wilborn is worse than Zapala. But did you bring that up. No you didn't. Also a much better league. Zapala played against a future Pro in Drew Pember. And the big south Freshman of the year that could go Power5 anywhere in Bo...

Billyboy78

What am I missing on Wilborn? I can't keep track of which angle people are taking to discredit our own guys to apply - but what need does Wilborn fill at URI? He's the same measurables as Traore - though Traore rode the bench in one of the best conferences in the league, and this kid played more on...

Billyboy78

To all on the side of reality here, just remember we are no longer talking to URI fans. We are talking to anti-Archie bots who have just decided that no amount of positive news will overshadow their own miserable worldview. Just like the same crew who said that we should fire Dan Hurley and if the ...

Billyboy78

So, put Green at the 2? At our deepest position by far? That makes no sense. I mean, are you surprised Ramster said that? He knows little to nothing, just makes monologue posts spewing a whole lotta nothing. Reading comprehension issue number 99999999999 Nowhere did I say Green at the 2. Was just m...

We're not talking about a project in Zapala. We're talking about a 5th year senior. C'mon.

This is a guy who couldn't get off the bench for Utah State for 3 years, transferred to Longwwod and played 16 minutes per game. I guess we just need a big body, but he does nothing for me. That's the best we can do? Yes Billy didn’t do much at Utah State. He would be more of a depth piece for us. ...

Would've been nice, but he didn't break any rules...hate the game, not the gamer? As far as "hand tying"...didn't Rhody already get two players better than him for the same position? I did not say he broke any rules But, why did he not tell us sooner. After all, we were not his enemy! Two...

Billyboy78

There's a huge difference between Danny and Archie. No matter how bad the team was, they always played hard for Dan. As we saw last year, that's not the case with Archie. Forget the X's and O's of Dan's offense. Forget the packline defense of Archie. If kids are at least giving 100% effort, I'm some...

Billyboy78

It’s all about how the coach connects with the kids on top of NIL, I don’t see Archie connecting with kids in today day and age. Then why did our 4 best players stay? Even though the lead recruiter on them left? Why did Lawrence come? Not everyone is as salty and negative on our coach as an unfortu...

Billyboy78

I'm not trying to make him look bad at all. I've said I don't blame him one bit. I blame him for not telling us sooner. Can anyone deny that he tied our hands on other options ! Would've been nice, but he didn't break any rules...hate the game, not the gamer? As far as "hand tying"...didn...

Billyboy78

Again, Role the dice on Miranda and gimme the uConn Greek Sniper and let’s go!! (My big worry is we’re clearly doubling down and digging in with the Packline which I believe has been figured out by good coaching staffs and is limiting the talent willing to come to Kingston- here’s hoping I’m wrong)...

Billyboy78

Sure. It just gets frustrating when it seems like every assumption that is made is an effort to make the players look bad. I'm not trying to make him look bad at all. I've said I don't blame him one bit. Fair enough. The stuff that really frustrates me are all the posts we see from others about pla...

They were in the NCAAT this year. Why are you surprised? Their first NCAA appearance since 1977, and the coach who got them there retired…so yes, surprised. Who cares about the past. They're a much better team/program than URI right now. Exactly. And that's the problem. The fact that Duquesne is a ...

Billyboy78

No, nobody knows for sure. But just put 2 and 2 together. He wanted to play for a better team (fact, VT is a better team), in a better conference (fact, ACC is a better conference than the A10) for more money (not a fact, but pretty obvious.) He was getting national attention all season receiving c...

Why'd he pick Rhody in the first place and what made him change his mind? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ How do you know that? Common sense? Isn't that what they're all looking for now? It certainly isn't for playing time. And as I've said, I don't blame him. He should get as much as ...

78, it’s what have you done for me lately syndrome, I think? Duq made noise recently while we haven’t. We are irrelevant at this point in time in comparison. Temporarily lower than Duq in the A10 pecking order or fallen below them, as you posted. We are like a business that can’t advertise. Unless ...

I have had the same thoughts Ramulous… And combined with the fact that the $$$ is only going to the P5. (Is it the P4 yet? Soon to be the P2???) We used to be able to compete, even though we were always always always punching 15 feet above our head, with the Dukes, UConns, Oregons, Kansases, Syracu...

Quite the coincidence, 78. How come all these other coaches changing schools, except for coaches coming to here, bring players with them ? Btw, I do not normally post here on KB this late. Is this KB adult swim time ? Asking for a friend. :lol: I was up watching that incredible ending to the Bruins...

Ramster, out of sincere curiosity on my part, do you know for a fact that Hammond is doing what is best for his family or are you making an assumption ? I don’t know his background, his family situation, his family’s financial situation, etc. which is why I ask. I get disappointed, frustrated and j...
