Who can you envision? Just guessing but maybe Charles Thomas on the short list, unless Joyce hires him back for the Dukes. He was an assistant last season at SLU and before that many years for Dambrot at Akron and Duquesne. He also happens to be from Dayton, Ohio. But the source said the person was...

Just as Kenny Johnson was kept secret as well

The only reason we found out about Johnson was someone found a blurry picture from a URI practice and somehow identified it was Johnson.

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.

Would be a better fit in the MAAC imo. Wouldn’t have minded him off the bench but if he was wants a starting role and more playing time he’s better off at Marist or Sacred Heart.

Ramfan22

I swear if he goes to Providence…

I'm guessing Tom Ostrom, now at Drake. Another possibility would be Bruiser Flint, although I think he's following Cal. Interesting that Wyoming transfer Cam Manyawu (6’9 F) just visited Drake. Could Ostrom influence him to pick URI? Assuming of course that Ostrom is the guy. Saint Louis - April 15...

Yes, if Archie’s going in a different direction than Kenny it makes sense that it might be a former head coach. There’s a lot available who may be looking to get back into the game, would be a good move.
I meant, a former URI coach?

Oh, probably not

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 actually think Lawrence could be an all-conference player this year if he makes a jump. Lawrence ha...

So,where does this leave us? Probably outside looking in.

I have a feeling we were never seriously involved with him. We were all desperate for news and the only thing everyone found was Cunningham was following him.

I don't see any reason to believe Cunningham is our lead recruiter. It’s because the other assistants have definitely learned not to follow the guys they’re recruiting Kenny and Duane both have. I’ve looked and Duane hasn’t followed any transfers this off-season, Kenny has but it’s guy we have no c...

Hasn’t gotten an On3 prediction to go to Dayton, the percent thing doesn’t mean anything. If he decides to go there though that would be a huge pickup for the flyers.

Schertz just got a 1.5mm raise and will take his whole team with him and likely compete at the top of the league for a bid just like he would have done in the Valley. It was a no brainer move. Who would turn that raise down? No one. He’ll get Robbie Avila, and maybe 1-2 other starters. But I don’t ...

If I had a spare 2 million, but the donation was conditional upon it all going to a certain player or players, would they actually consider the idea? Let's say I had 5 million, could I pick the team?
