I've been thinking lately If we had gotten our shit together this year and had more success, we probably don't return the core players we return. They were just inconsistent enough we can add solid pieces to compliment them and have a decent team next year. UMass had a decent year and they lost som...

So why are we paying him to recruit for another school? Will GT reimburse?

Any hard blow to the BE will have a downstream affect of a hard blow to the A10 - it has happened nearly every single time. That may not so much be the case. The A-10 was already no longer getting many games with power conferences teams outside of MTE games. The Big East was still getting games fro...

Don't get me wrong, I love Barkey and Ernie Johnson, but they are more NBA guys. I'd rather have Seth Davis, Rothstein, Kellogg, etc.

In think (in years) the past, the semis were thrus and the championship on Sat, but that was like 40 years ago. I do agree that the time is way too late.

Do they still alternate the FF/Champ between CBS and TBS? Or is it all just TBS/TNT/Tru now for the final weekend?

Why would Cal talk about his next job in his farewell address to Kentucky fans? Speculation about Dan to Kentucky is dumb and it’s always been dumb to anyone that gets the guy and what makes him tick. 0.0% chance. I honestly don’t see him coaching any college program other than Connecticut unless a...

Btw I confirmed that Tre was never considering URI after I retweeted Vault’s tweet that he was definitely coming to URI and Tre’s step dad called me and blasted me that it would never happen. The question I have is why would his father call you instead of (or in addition to?) Rhody Vault? You simpl...

To be fair, the "antics" were only on display after a couple of aggregious calls.

Would love to see ace's take on this.

There have been rumors about Brad Stevens for years - it's always been squashed because the thought is he has no interest in the recruiting etc of the college game. Not sure how true that is, but I would think he'd be back to the college game already if he was going to.

steviep123

While you never really know what motivates a coach to move on, and I'm certain Kentucky reaches out, I don't see what would motivate DH from leaving UConn. I just can't see it.

steviep123

Also, I watched the 2nd half of SC/Iowa women's yesterday. What a fun and entertaining game!

steviep123

I actually picked Purdue over UConn in my bracket, really for only these 2 reasons. 1. the last time a 1 seed lost in the first round, they won it all the following year. 2. Everyone was picking UConn, so picking someone else would be an advantage. That said, I'm still rooting for UConn. I'm also a ...

How does he have eligibility left? He's done 5 seasons, even with a covid year he should be done, no?

A good friend of mine lives near Worcester and every summer is trying to get me to go to both WooSox games as well as the Worcester Bravehearts (who play at Holy Cross). I always go to the latter, but will refuse the WooSox. There may come a day when I go to a WooSox game, but it is not this day.

The responses to that tweet are on fire!

While Mack may be an asshole (and I also recall him in 2014 - the first year of the new big east railing against the A10 for bids. I was like, dude you were in the league until this year - take it down a notch and don't be disrespectful), I still would have been happy if AM was not our guy (note, I ...

Love this. We do have a financial advisor we really like and has done well for us, but not quite as well as the numbers theblueram is saying. Might be worth looking into. Thanks for posting.

I do think the roof is too low for a jumbotron, too heavy or not. If they had one the size of what's in the dunk or whatever that dump is called now, part of the court would likely be blocked. Harvard has a decent one. Raise the roof and get it done!

Tom didnt really like recruiting that much preferred the beach lol Remember he won with Malone's players, changed from a half court offense to up tempo, and the rest is history. Made 50k a year here and left when Texas came calling with 500k a year. Penders recruited Kenny Green and Jeff Kent, our ...

FWIW: Mack was the guy I wanted if we didn't land Archie Miller. Will be interested to see how he does at Charleston.

steviep123

I'm over it...what I'm not over is the URI administration dropping the ball each time they have a chance to make themselves into something more. A better hire than Jerry D as well as Baron would have led to something other than a nearly 20 year drought. Making the needed changes and better infrastru...

I can't see DH leaving UConn for any other college team at this point. I know ace in the past has elluded to him only leaving Rhody for a handful of places, UConn being one. Would love to get ace's input on if he'd leave UConn for another college team. If UConn was one of the handful before, is ther...

Bravo to Dan Hurley whose UConn team have dominated in the NCAAs so far, winning by 32, 17, and 30. We can bask in some reflected glory of his achievement knowing he got his most important chops at Rhody. Hurley made the right decision in taking the UConn job and going to a place, not only for a bi...

Also, once I start seeing Kenny posting his brick images I'll be happy again.

Since DH, Luke Murray and Tom Moore (f him) used to coach at Rhody, along with former Rams Andre Berry and Malik Martin, I'm calling UConn Rhody West. I've been joking about that with one of my colleagues who went to UConn and apologized to me profusely 6 years ago when DH left. We both want to see ...

steviep123

I want to say that both of these sentiments can be true: 1. That Dan was pretty much gone (whether he wanted to admit it or even knew it or not) before that game. 2. That many of us, myself included, think that if he stayed, and the administration/athletic dept put in the support they did to lure Ar...

Is if I couldn't dislike coach k any more. I actually used to like Duke until we faced them in 88. That tech on Kenny Green was the worst and helped Duke win. Their players attitude of "They didn't belong on the same floor as us" was also uncalled for.

Yeah, per my edit, I didn't see it was a parady accout at first.

Wow! Just Wow!

I hope Blue Man is right about Hammond. Archie has said that he's one of the best recruits he's ever got. I think we all need to stop pissing at each other about where we are as a program right now and how we got here. All that matters is where we go from here. The last 2 years are history, let's l...

Can't compete with most of those teams financially. Well, the hope is we can compete with more teams financially this offseason. We also have to factor in what he said he’s looking for. He wants to be a starting point guard. I haven’t kept up to date if any of these guys transferred… Georgia Tech -...
