:evil: https://x.com/RhodyVault/status/1763007596682953009?s=20 I guess "what went wrong" with media relationships could be interesting to some, but I'm more interested in "what went wrong" as far as the winning goes Surprised it took this long for Vault to get a dig like this in...

I mean, that tweet was just stating a fact. Can’t really argue with it. BAR posted earlier too that the first four minutes seemed like the same ole shit. Rhody Vault is an asshole. Let him go cover Bryant & Brown Can have whatever opinion you want of him, but you can’t get pissed at that tweet....

How would you propose to remove or update this?

Matt Keebler

Without being too specific, I work for a nationally known equipment & service provider and have worked in all of the athletic complex buildings and buildings across campus for close to 20 years. The way they maintain the facilities on campus is deplorable and the antithesis of how anyone with ha...

Matt Keebler

I heard Andrew Chrabascz as well several days ago from a reliable source.

Matt Keebler

I saw and spoke to Silk at multiple games (we ended up in the beer line under the stands together a few times) and asked him at one point why they had not recognized him. He said he preferred to be under the radar but I suspect he was being polite. Kind of mind blowing that the programs all time lea...

Matt Keebler

Next year is an audition for him to get a job overseas, can't fault him for wanting to go to a school where he will be a major part of the rotation after the way he was misused here so that both twins could start.

Matt Keebler

Thrilled to admit I was 100% wrong. Thor pulled it off, donating today as we all should.

Matt Keebler

ESPN reporting that there is mutual interest, thrilled to potentially be dead wrong on this!

Matt Keebler

I would love to see him come here but why wouldn’t he take a P5 job with far more resources and deeper pockets? I don’t mean to be pessimistic, I just don’t think it’s realistic. He would be regressing to a situation behind what he was in at Dayton.

Matt Keebler

While I would LOVE to see Archie come here, You are completely delusional if you think he is, stepping back from $10 million to far, far less than $2 million. Too many power five jobs available, again, I would love to see him here but it’s probably not happening - he’ll chase the money we can’t/won’...

Matt Keebler

Silk was at the game again today. I said hello and asked why there was no engagement, he said he doesn’t really have much back & forth with the athletic dept. and doesn’t really let them know he’s coming. I think he was being polite, I was 12 when he was a senior and I recognize him. Such a sham...

Matt Keebler

But really, where were the students? There were almost none in attendance.

Matt Keebler · Re: 2/12 | Davidson | 2:00PM (ESPNU)

Matt Keebler · Re: 2/12 | Davidson | 2:00PM (ESPNU) Where are the students? 101 empty.

Where are the students? 101 empty.

Matt Keebler

What about Aris Tsourgiannis?

Matt Keebler

We’re not exactly big on honoring tradition. Silk Owens was in the building last Saturday and we didn’t even bother mention it on the PA, doubt we will be selling legends jerseys anytime soon, makes too much sense and might generate $$.

Matt Keebler

How long can the “leadership” let this go on? Such a clear regression year over year.

Matt Keebler

Matt Keebler

Antwan is our best player. Infuriating that he’s not play more.

I know I’m harping on this, but how bush league is it that we have the programs ALL TIME LEADING SCORER In the building and he didn’t merit so much as a mention.

Matt Keebler

Our all-time leading score was in attendance, how does that not even get mentioned? Where is the pride and sense of history?

Matt Keebler

Chatted with him in the beer line under the student section. Don’t know if he got a shout out as I go to the alumni lounge for halftime but disappointing if he didn’t.

Matt Keebler

Silk Owens in attendance, did he even get mentioned?

Matt Keebler

BAR, I think he would be great, but we’re not throwing a $500 K base at him. The offer to Hurley was to get a proven, successful coach to stay here, based on our history do you think there’s anyway we pony up with that type of offer again?

Matt Keebler

Big Apple, we’re not paying him over 1 million, state salary is $315K, he gets some Adidas money, a free car and some other stuff, but he’s not over $1 million.

Matt Keebler

Why would Boals leave his alma mater to make similar $$ here?

Matt Keebler

Archie isn’t coming here. Kevin Ollie?

Matt Keebler

Back to back atrocious performances against the bottom teams in the league. Got lucky to sneak out with a W on Wednesday but it caught up to us today. Cox has to go, stacking our schedule with cream puffs may inflate his record but it shouldn’t get him extended. Players arent engaged, the assistant ...

Matt Keebler

We did what we were supposed to do, this was a terrible team. We played an OK game and beat them handily but there are still multiple times in every game where there are baffling decisions made both by players and the coach.

Matt Keebler

If either of the twins shoots a three, they should be pulled immediately

Matt Keebler

I particularly enjoyed that possession that started with our two centers that Cox insists on playing at the same time so their Mom won’t complain standing out by the three-point line passing it back & forth and ended with El Amin throwing a lay up over the top of the backboard, beautiful.

Matt Keebler

Seems odd that a guy who is excelling as a point guard professionally wouldn't play the same position for us...

Matt Keebler

Seems pretty absurd that we can’t have working Wi-Fi and a scoreboard capable of showing replays. These are hardly large ticket items.

Matt Keebler

Hard to believe that Archie would step back from a multi-million $$ position with one of the most storied programs in CBB history to take $750K (or less) job with us but certainly nice to think about. As JimSidd said we should be looking for a climber who moves up to this job, has some success and m...

Matt Keebler

Archie isn't coming here and even if he did, it wouldn't be for long.

Matt Keebler

He's in over his head and has been since day 1. He's a good recruiter and 1st chair assistant but not a good HC.

Matt Keebler

Made it to my first in-person game of the season tonight and I had the most incredible (Verizon) cell service from my seat. (Didn't even need to TRY the WiFi.) It was so good that I had to shut my phone off because I didn't want to be distracted by all of the texts and push alerts that were causing...

Matt Keebler

Fatts getting some run with Trae Young and other NBA guys. Oh, and Adam Sandler.

Matt Keebler

For example, RIGHT NOW, why is our second best player not in the game?

Matt Keebler

Outside of foul trouble (tonight), not shortening the rotation is inexcusable. Walker is the second best player on the team, he should be playing more far more minutes, tough to get in a groove when you’re on the bench.

Matt Keebler

This team is a dumpster fire. Missed layups, turnovers, stupid fouls & blown assignments. Cox certainly isn’t without fault but can’t blame it all on him.

Matt Keebler

Repulsive? I said he has no experience, which is true. I loved him as a player here, I was only saying that as an assistant coach hire he probably wasn’t the best choice.

Matt Keebler

I’ll adjust my previous statement, no collegiate experience. He’s a nice guy, but this would be a bad hire. Should we be looking at Luther Clay or Michael Anderson because they were also successful post players here? No, if we were hiring a coach, which we are not, we should look for the best experi...

Matt Keebler

This whole thread is absurd. He has zero experience and we aren’t hiring. (For the record, I love Kenny and some of my earliest memories of Rhody hoops are watching him and the 88 team!) He has zero experience? As of June 2019 he had no coaching experience, forgive me if something changed in the la...
