Re: Understanding the NIL
Overly simplistic stupid, unrealistic, will neva happen etc. solutions. 1) keep the ncaa out of it. 2). Conferences set salary caps on basketball teams, both for men’s and women’s. These would be within reach of all conference teams. Scaled up to the major conferences, scaled lower for other confere...

Re: URI Rhode to Excellence Poll
Never mind contributing to NIL. The question looming is do I want to fork out season ticket money again for a program that appears to be in complete disarray. With payment due in a few weeks, is the product worth driving an hour each way anymore. Who's on the team? Who's our lead recruiter? Has our...
