Re: URI Rhode to Excellence Poll
If this really is about name, image and likeness, why don't the players get the TV money? After all, it's their names, images and likenesses we see on the TV screen.

RIP Brad Carson
Gone too soon at age 60 in Pompano Beach, Fla.
Brad was a key player on those great Tom Ehrhardt teams, a good guy and a devoted Rhody Ram.

Iron Dukes' half-court defense reminds me of John Chaney's -- looks like a 2-3 zone but they're guarding their men and ready to trap at the seams. VCU looks like a Baron team against a zone.
