Not being snarky. Just trying to understand. Gotcha... My guess is they are keeping him quiet so that he can work in the phones in an almost incognito way as the portal gets ready to close down on May 1. I am not sure what purpose that serves. I just feal that a deal hasn't been finalized yet. No i...

Archie is being patient. We need to follow Might be some deals at the deadline. Players being too patient or trying to reach, only so many spots on each team. I think last COVID year so realistically too many people in the portal. When the music gets close to stopping they might be scrambling for a...

Lol the KJ stuff was so back and forth on what was actually happening, there were times he was gone and he wasn't. My shots were mainly pointed at Vault who had next to zero insight and just took a guess and was ultimately right weeks after he said it was happening immediately. Hammond was a surpri...

Rhody Sody

Blue Man, are you okay? You had posted many times that KJ wasn't leaving, and you would have the last laugh. You also said that Hammond was staying because of Archie. Now we bring back your favorite Rhody player, Bassy. Just want to make sure you are all good. Of course, you realize this is just so...

Rhody Sody

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...

I like having a local kid who wants to play here, have to trust Archie on the role. He will be good for the culture. All of his fg% have improved each year and hopefully will continue next year. His last 6-7 games with Albany were impressive with 2 games over 30 and a game over 40. Plus, the rest of...

Nice!! Finally some good news!

I'm sure he'll claim he is breaking the news soon.

Excellent news, lets add another this week

Rhody Sody

If Hammond is still coming, I don’t think we would land both Coit and Lawerence. Lawrence is more of the player we lacked last year. Coit is another dude who can get you 25 any night but takes a lot of shots, and if he’s cold, he doesn’t affect the game. Lawrence is solid on both ends. He has playe...

Two players should not be on our team next year: Wright and Traore. They are low-major players. However, I'm completely confused about why people wouldn't get excited about Manyawu. This reminds me of the people who were negative about Green when he also put up decent numbers in the conference USA....

If a player like Joseph commands 500k we are screwed. I seriously doubt that number though. 100k tops. It's like everyone has a price tag attached to them. It's gotten beyond ridiculous. The money is going to eventually run out and the market will set the price. Our conference needs to be competiti...

Rhody Sody

Unfortunately not, can't donate cash directly. See my comment above. What about that? Very questionable, the coach can also attend and participate in NIL fund raising events. His wife could donate. Plus, $50k right now you get double the return. Plus, if you reference “Godfather’s Basketball Fund” ...

KJ has started following former Pitt center Federiko Federiko

Crazy name alone I think he's a natural fit

Did you see his FT %? Foumena percentages

so he would be a natural fit for our team. Definitely has the size we need.

Georgetown Twitter confirming Kenny to the Hoyas.

Big Fou started the season really strong and had big games in the 2nd and 3rd games of the year Wonder if him and Arch never saw things the same way ? He has a highlight reel from this year on youtube. I’m not sure I would have put the 3 point bank shots on it! Too bad he’s gone though, I could see...

Rhody Sody

Archie totally blew this game. How can he have weston on the bench and Montgomery out there. Horrendous in game coaching. Weston has 4 fouls I believe Yes , u r right , he had 4fouls but in crunch time with under 5 left, what do,u have to,lose. u still have him in. Agreed, Weston should have been in

Rhody Sody

Fou put on IG a “highlight tape” last night. IMO it’s not for URI fans. I think Rory and Fou are gone. Based on their body language at the Fordham game, i wouldn’t expect them to stay. Fou was first person to pull his hand out of the huddle and walk back to the bench staring into the stands. Just d...

I know we don’t want to offend people’s delicate sensitivities with the refs - but holy shit this is garbage. Yup! Is that watchdog group who flagged temple for point shaving also monitoring refs? Some of these calls are bizarre. Like the one ref who called I think Fuchs with a foul from like 40ft ...

He was trying to play tough D. Hands up and hustling through screens. I’ll give credit where credit is due. He’s hustling when he is in and no issues with attitude. Give him time.

Rhody Sody

Keep Cam, Fuchs, Weston, Green and Dubs. All set with the rest. I’d add Fou to the list. I don’t think he has played much recently and we’ve looked awful. I have to say it, this is Embaronising howver you spell it…… I’m going to need to give to the NIL this week unfortunstely my funding will probab...

Tough 3-game stretch coming up at UMass, Loyola, and Richmond. If we can take 2 of 3 that would be great. That is a tough stretch for the A10 (8th ranked NET conference currently), Jersey. Good pick up. UMass: I don’t expect a win on the road. Loyola: We are home so we have a better shot at a win. ...

Rhody Sody

This is a question that has me perplexed. I'm interested to hear what others think. Did Archie look too much for shooting and not enough defense as a result of last year? After all, we are shooting well this year (with the exception of FTs, which is ironic because last year we were terrible shooter...

We wanted a beer night. We got a beer night. UConn did a beer night. Who cares if PC doesn’t? Who cares if we weren’t first or the cheapest. You won’t find much cheaper, if at all, than $5 for a 16 oz beer at a restaurant or brewery. It’s better than nothing. There really can’t be anything to compl...

I thought our jerseys looked fantastic vs the jerseys worn by UMASS. Color scheme, design, everything. I could imagine watching that as a recruit and saying “I’m going to rhody”.

I’m not going to complain about the jerseys. Positivity fellas, we are on a winning streak!

I did somehwat question the Archie hire based on feedback from my IU friends but i’m not as down as everyone else. Archie is way more qualified compared to Cox and we have more talent than last year.

Wow, losing to previous 1-4 Quinnipiac at home yet, pretty bad. What is it that Quinnipiac has over Rhody basketball (both teams). I am disappointed at this point and this team is certainly not as good as I thought. We definitely have limitations and shortcomings; shooting is a major problem. Unles...

One day it would be nice to update/remove that giant HVAC vent around the catwalk that an elephant could comfortably walk through. How would you propose to remove or update this?

Rhody Sody

I’m going to agree with Trouser about the impact of losing Dolly so far. Rhody needs another shooter unless Sophie starts hitting 50% each game. I think Tammi needs to play Eva more.

I didn’t watch but followed the game and the season so far. Need better shooting.
