Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
Sorry but have to say my piece. If URI is not top five next year in the A10. Miller should be fired. I have sat through two five years of the worst basketball I have ever seen. I have no allegiance to a coach or player. I have allegiance to my school. And so far this coach and the players have disr...

Re: URIMBB Season Tix - KB who’s in?
Other than to keep some streak alive or to guarantee you have the seats you like, there's really not a good reason to buy season tickets if all you want to do is go to games (that's my qualifier there). You'll be able to buy the cheapest seats for any game a la carte and then sit pretty much in any ...

Was URI in on Anya? Feels like this a recruiting battle Archie should be in on and winning but we’re not…. Yes, they did reach out. Why can’t Archie close on a big man who is in our backyard and going to our conference opponent? I'm beginning to think it's because we have sucked for years now, and ...

This is pretty interesting, a story about tampering with NIL deals during the regular season. Just another angle on this mess:

So much has changed in that regard. The month or so after the season ends is now the most important in roster...

My question is, what is so great about Calipari lately? The guy has done nothing in recent years, with basically an unlimited support system. I guess his overall history still gives him clout, it'll be interesting to see what his contract pays him. Crazy!
