Has anyone noticed on Twitter there’s been a TON of new Rhody accounts made within the last couple weeks? No. We all have jobs, families and other things to do. This may be the biggest hardo comment on the year so far. 😂 God forbid I click on Rhody tweets responses! And see new Rhody fan accounts! ...

Everyone knows you don’t need more of that when you’re posting.

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

Rhody15

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...

Rhody15

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...

Rhody15

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.

Ok - I know this has been asked before, but now with the "new" Rhode to Excellence being run by Stone, I'm donating what I can afford to both the Athletic Dept's director's fund and the NIL. I started my donation to the NIL about 6 weeks ago and initially am doing half of what I am donati...

Okay I counted 72 centers in the portal without new homes. Haven't seen that we've reached out to a single one of them. Didn’t you say you live in Nashville? Go to Broadway, go to The Gulch. Go watch the Predators playoff games. Don’t be counting the goddamn centers in the transfer portal. It’s not...

Nothing vicious, just some good conversation.

So after Thomas was All America East and averaged 20 4 5, you think Hammond is better after completing his high school career?

Rhody15

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...

WTF are you talking about? Show me where I said we'd be worse. I don't even remember commenting on that. Maybe I said we still wouldn't have been good. But worse? That's just dumb. I do remember playing a lot of teams playing without some of their good players so maybe we won some of those games bu...

Show me 3 or 4 more guys like him or better. Otherwise, we're no better than we were last year. You're the same person who thinks we would have been WORSE last year completely healthy and available team.

Loving the people who now are like “eh, never really wanted Hammond anyways, too short, would've taken too long to develop and adjust, give me a more experienced player” when for MONTHS they were salivating at Hammond coming here. The ole “I didn’t want to date her any longer anyways” after a girl d...

Wild list of schools.

Rhody15

Or are we sending Ways to Albany 👀 Like it. Use Albany as our feeder program. Send Wright there to play and improve and bring him back next year. Archie is a genius Or if Ways stays and redshirts I'd be totally cool with that too! Good old fashioned development. In what world what he stay and redsh...

Luis and Always have to be leaving. House, Always, Luis, Thomas, Lawerence, Cam is a logjam. You’d expect Luis/Always would be getting minimal minutes now. Lawerence and Thomas didn’t come here to be bench pieces. House isn’t staying to come off the bench. That leaves Cam as the 4th guard? He can’t ...

Rhody15

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. Now with Bassy who excelled at Albany and had stepped up his game, we should be solid at guard in our conference. As I said before, time for frontcourt help no...

Everyone here should be expecting WAY more in Archie’s third year than getting a one year rental Sebastian Thomas. He’s better, but not a needle mover at all. Disappointing.

We should be ahead of a lot of these clubs in the pecking order. Is it possible Miller cut bait for some reason on Hammond? It’s all s...

The only good tournaments URI seems to get into more recently only seem to be when it plays at Mohegan Sun. Unfortunately that can only happen every four years. given we are coming off four straight losing seasons and do not travel well outside this area, we are not really a desirable team for tour...

Why would you root for him?

Couldn’t be less relevant.

That’s like cheering for Anthony Harris at his NAIA school.

Just so ironic to me Hammond decommitted (supposedly) because Kenny left, and now he’ll go to to a school where Kenny isn’t coaching at either lol

Hey Rhody15, it seems I got the rule changed in less than a week. Anything else I can bring up that prickles you?
Last I checked, URI isn’t in Virginia.
My man. Standing by his guns. Tough guy on the boards. LOL.

Can URI currently contribute to NIL?

No, they cannot.

Rhody15

I need to see the A10 media rights agreement that was just signed and how much URI gets from it first. So it's a no for me. Why the hell do you need to see how much they get? For the millionth time, If it’s $1 or $1000000, URI is allowed to contribute ZERO to NIL. But continue bringing this up! May...

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 Top 100 team, won the conference. Helped bring the A10 to the 8th ranked conference. Did all that in just their...

Just posted this over in the recruiting thread, but warrants a double take: The new reality is that portal movement will be the primary way to build rosters. Then fill with the incoming frosh with potential. Just the opposite of the NBA teams, who tend to shy away from 4/5 year college players and ...

Rhody15

Hammond in a second. He would have been the future if they could have kept him somehow for 4 years For one year? Lawrence, without question. Lawrence is a better player right now. You want Hammond because he could have developed into an all-conference guard. He wasn't going to be that next year. I ...

Here is my two cents. Worst I have ever felt about Rhody hoops. I dont like the state of College Bbal or most other College TV Sports. But good or bad in order to have a chance at winning games we need to support NIL. I am signed up for a yearly subscription. I aslo believe that Archie is a great c...

Preston Murphy - go get a guy that has brought talent here before. He looked pretty active on a final four team's bench. I doubt Archie feels anything but happy for KJ given that he gave him a job when he was handicapped by the ncaa and now he's ok. Kind of took care of the guy. He needs to take ca...

How good is this kid? Don’t know too much about him. Stats aren’t eye popping, but coming from the Big10 should say something. How does he slot in at Rhody? I don’t think he’d leave a tournament team where he started to come here to be a bench guy. Complete guess here but I’d say he starts and play...

Hammond is dead to me. I'm sure he's gotten some bigger offers since he blew up late. Loyalty only goes so far as the size of their wallet. It's the world we live in. I prefer the old days. It's no wonder the birth rate is down. Who wants to bring in children to this shithole? I for one did not hav...

This is a depressing thread. God this fanbase just doesn’t get it. If everyone on this board gave $10 like you said, I bet Hammond becomes affordable. I hold anyone who can donate but chooses not to accountable. He was affordable. We got him. Kenny left. The money wasn’t everything when that happen...

I would assume this guy is on here, his tweets are not very bright/don’t make much sense most of the time under Rhody accounts, but this one is pretty pathetic.
