Can I offer. Tyson, Zek, Rory, couldn’t sniff a BE roster. That alone is an upgrade to me. No? Brandon Weston was a Top 100 Big East recruit. He is now on Tennessee St in the Ohio Valley Conference after failing to consistently contribute on two terrible A10 teams. Being on a benchwarmer on a Big E...

Someone said it before, URI basketball fan accounts are popping up everywhere on Twitter lol. I said that. They ALL are like “random name from random town in RI” and they all tweet bizarre things back and forth to each other. I’d guess they’re all the same person with too much time on their hands.

The dude played 6 minutes a game in the Big East last year.

He’s not coming to the A10 thinking he’s playing 8 minutes a game, that number was just randomly thrown out and people are running with it.

Rhody15

Well they could be in play. We bess not have Traore backing up Fuchs, so we could (should) pick up two guys that can play center. 0.0% chance a 6'8 215 lb kid is playing center I wouldn’t say 0. I could see a situation where he is the 5 at times - depends who else we bring in. He was used to spell ...

Do people really think Stone Freeman, someone with absolutely ZERO collegiate coaching or recruiting experience, is reaching out to prospective transfers before anyone else?

As expected, Anya commits to SLU. I would have liked him here, not far to go from Brown, oh well. https://x.com/kaluanya_/status/1784630069391917275 Would have liked to see him here too.

re: Miranda, I don't think he's posted a list and to me its unclear if he's actually interested in ever playing college ball again. He could simply be "in the transfer portal" to see if someone is willing to give him significant NIL money. He's played three games and 16 minutes across two...

I agree, Jersey. Lawrence is better at the 2. Watching the clips Scott played in the interview, I was impressed with his passing. That skill should help our O significantly.

…are people really confused about whether Thomas is faster than Luis?

It’s not even close.

Luis could not be any slower, Thomas is 2X as quick.

Hahahhaa what a pathetic response Yep! Players can't get better! Still far less pathetic than watching an Albany basketball game. Get more hobbies Aren't we all college basketball fans? You never watch any low majors? Do you watch anyone but URI? By that logic it's pathetic to watch URI basketball ...

I know we're all bummed about Hammond. I want to show that it's not a URI thing but a part of a larger problem that even blue bloods have to deal with. I agree…..but that kid was probably over recruited in the portal. In a sense Ben was too, but not until after he opted out. I think he was on track...

After multiple horrible years and losing our top recruit, if our plan G was landing the leading scorer of the American East, I think that's great. If he wasn't named Sebastian Thomas, I think we'd have a lot more excitement about landing a guard who dropped 30-40 in multiple games. But for some rea...

Rhody15

Due to his turnovers Thomas is incapable of being a competent floor general. It doesn't matter if he goes up the floor at the speed Archie wants if it's going right back down the other way even faster when the opponent gets a fast break off of his mistakes. It's not just that we know he's unplayabl...

Bottom line is Luis is an A10 level player but not an A10 level starter on a top half team.

This is one of the more unique exits as it seems the group is divided 50/50 on an expected, good, exit, or an unexpected, bad, exit. It's shocking to me so many people on Twitter (Barstool Rhody, etc.) are surprised, and frustrated, by this exit. I think there's value from a depth standpoint with L...

Gone are the days of Jarvis Garrett who could have been a started in many programs (and was here until Dowtin surpassed him). He stayed here to accept a good role on a talented team that went to 2 tourneys. Why would Luis stay on a backup on a shit team? Cannot even compare him to Garretts situation.

Rhody15

Just too slow to stick with/get by A10 guards on a consistent basis. Agreed. He could have been a nice 10-15 mpg steady backup PG but I am sure that is not the role he would want. God forbid these kids take lesser roles. All they have in their heads are pro ball, pro ball, pro ball, pro ball I mean...

I thought Luis actually was 1 of the only guys who pretty much performed at or above what you would have expected coming in from QU. But he has limitations and he was going to command minutes. Higher floor lower ceiling type profile. Just too slow to stick with/get by A10 guards on a consistent bas...

Luis goes from being brought to Brooklyn for A10 media day, getting talked up by Archie a ton to national media outlets, to being forced out in a year.

Life comes at ya fast.

What is production? Do wins and losses count towards production? In this case, I'd go with mpg, ppg, rpg, and assists per game. Others may differ... Ben is a much better player than Bassy....right now. And I'm not one of the ones who dislikes Bassy. I guess it depends where Ben ends up as to what k...

Actually !5, I am really good with it. I was very impressed that we were able to land a player like Lawrence who made an impact in the BIG.
