Re: 3/6 | George Mason | 7:00PM (ESPN+)

Speaking of potential returnees… Personally, I like Lou K. He is one of the very few with any sack on the team. Could be a good locker room guy if he stays. Unfortunately, I think he doesn’t have the talent or quickness to be more than a backup at this level at best. It is probably best for him - f...

Re: 3/2 | Saint Louis | 4:00PM (CBSSN)

The thing I'm optimistic about is that this season is almost over. And the ONLY thing that will help this clusterfuck is Archie bringing some LOT better talent in next season. Who the fuck would want to play here? I don’t understand how next year will be different than this one? It’ll be another ro...

Re: 2/28 | VCU | 6:30PM (CBSSN)

The players we have are a result of the recruiting efforts. Archie doesn’t fill the funnel with players; that’s his assistants’ jobs. Novel thought here but how about a change in assistants and bring in a new lead recruiter. Maybe we can fill the funnel with players who have a little more ability, ...

I am glad I took advantage of a beautiful Charleston night than watch this garbage Just looked up the score then just deleted my dvr recording “Free Dubs” though right?

Re: David Fuchs Appreciation Thread - A10 Rookie of the Week

Fuchs has a great upside. Works hard all of the time. No, he isnt fast, but he is strong and competes. He cares too. You can tell by his passion which is evident to see. Ugonnna Kingsley went from Putnam Science to Kentucky and got paid well. I know its not same same, but things can be done. Or, we ...

Boosters could make it up to Fuchs in other ways. Other schools do that in a big way.

Re: 2/21 | Richmond | 7:00PM (ESPN+)

No I am not a “clown” but can only wonder why so many on this board ridiculed responses. The opinion expressed is but one person’s. You don’t have to like it. And it’s okay if you don’t. But name calling and acting as if only a few people are allowed to offer a viable opinion. I think not. Folks in...

Re: 2/21 | Richmond | 7:00PM (ESPN+)

Can't those who've heard share some generic info and leave player names out of it? I'm not looking for names, just want to get more of a feel for what's going on behind the scenes. Dangling the ole carrot and then yanking it away is brutal. I mean, it's no surprise to hear there are rumblings, but ...

Re: 2/21 | Richmond | 7:00PM (ESPN+)

Just watched Archie's post-game. JFC, get a load of these comments. He calls the team "mentally fragile." That's just for starters. "Where we're at, the evolution of our program, this is new to me. This team has not been able to make any jumps defensively to get better. Part of it is...

ARCHIE IS THE PROBLEM !!! At this time of the year college basketball players are thinking about two things. Either a post season run. Or where am I going to play next year. The signs are always there and usually very evident. Concerning our Rhody Rams when the spectators are talking about how many...

Re: Who is Archie Miller?

There are several things working against URI's recruiting better players. The name Archie Miller simply doesn't carry the same cache that Dan Hurley does. Better transfers such as P5's aren't likely to want to go to a losing program, they want to win right away not just get more playing time. NIL m...

Re: Who is Archie Miller?

I honestly think you nailed it. I don't think he's really running any traditional halfcourt "system." I feel like we see some masterful playcalling out of timeouts and inbounding scenarios. Just nothing in the halfcourt. From what I remember of those Dayton teams it was transition offense...

Re: '24 VA PG Ben Hammond (URI signed LOI)

I would be more concerned about the current team than new recruits. Current team, each player, was brought in, had expectations, maybe promises from coaches or the NIL collective, or opportunity. Do doubt, some maybe disappointed. Disappointment can be overcome with trust. Some HCs build relationshi...

Re: '24 VA PG Ben Hammond (URI signed LOI)

Bottom line. We need a point guard who can move the ball around.
