Re: Assistants under Coach Miller 2022-23
Possible former coach Here? Yes, if Archie’s going in a different direction than Kenny it makes sense that it might be a former head coach. There’s a lot available who may be looking to get back into the game, would be a good move. Me thinks the former HC at best only works where you have a name ro...

Re: URI Rhode to Excellence Poll
Our Legislators have other much bigger fish to fry rather than allowing URI funding paying its players. Like, the Speaker offered on radio recently that the State share of the Bridge could be 60 million.

I suppose some schools will maybe have the advantage of recruiting local talented freshman that always wanted to play for Ole State U. We don’t have that talent.

Coit is another dude who can get you 25 any night but takes a lot of shots, and if he’s cold, he doesn’t affect the game. Lawrence is solid on both ends. He has playe...
