At least it’s over.

Tick tick tick

The NIL could effect fans at some point (that aren’t effected now). I mean I gave a little, but how long can we expect the same people to foot the bill? Forever?

Rhodymob05

It seems a lot of people who have been donating to Rhody Athletics for years will now be putting their donations into Rhody Excellence. This money will be going to the players. In the past, donations were used to help fund upgrades to the program, such as the practice facility, chartered flights to...

I stand corrected. Forgot Wyoming was in the MWC. Considering he’s a freshman too, not bad numbers. A good developing piece but we also need experience.

Finally some news ! Thanks

What do those numbers translate to in the A10? 4 and 5?

Rhodymob05

This is weirding me out lol. Walk-ons????

Rhodymob05

Need. Rules. Now.

Rhodymob05

Awfully quiet out there..

Rhodymob05

Posts about coaches reaffirming their position and players “recommitting” is a sad state in college basketball.

Rhodymob05

Is KJ news holding up our transfers? Should be hearing about new players soon you’d think?

Rhodymob05

I think the tiers are dependent on the consistency of the cash flow from each fan base. I’m hoping the P5 tier gap isn’t enlarged over the years.

Rhodymob05

Oh boy. The timing isn’t good during our most important recruiting period in years

This Championship game is gonna be a huge battle in the paint, love it!

Rhodymob05

Edey is a problem man. He fouls out everyone and really does have a nice hook shot. His eyes are always peaked for his shooters too.

Rhodymob05

No player is worth hundreds of thousands.

Rhodymob05

If they put a money cap on the NIL that would be sustainable and would reduce transfers and would allow , coaches, facilities ect to be what solidifies commitments.

Another $180M and we could have the Boston Celtics play for us

That’s pure insanity lol. One season???

Rhodymob05

You need to really know what to look for in a player to recruit Jucos, I mean the competition is mostly negligible.

Rhodymob05

I do understand the concern about donating towards players, who then may transfer in 10-12 months. I’m assuming there’s some financial security?

Anyone know if there’s a difference between donating to the “contribute” link in the tweet vs the “one time contribution” option within the “subscribe” link?

Rhodymob05

Do you think URI along with other schools will suffer financially since fans/donors are redirecting funds towards NIL and maybe not towards the athletics department anymore? Will be interesting to see. Most can probably only do one or the other.

Rhodymob05

These guys transferring 3 times or more are not helping themselves academically. Chances are they’ll need that degree post basketball. No idea how schools even deal with that. (We couldn’t get a player who transfers once).

Rhodymob05

Martelli did an excellent job too. I’d figure new rules will be implemented asap on this circus scene.

Rhodymob05

All I know is that , the successful teams this season are winning in the paint with size. Get us some bigs Archie!

Rhodymob05

Lol are players just price tags now?

Rhodymob05

Thats too bad on Zek, he obviously had a rough season, but I still thought there was some potential there. This is one where I'd be real curious to know which side initiated it. Yeah dude was a stud at the beginning of the year. Only got it back for once game. Weirdest thing ever. Thought that he c...

Rhodymob05

Has talent but way too inconsistent and definitely dogged it on defense.

Rhodymob05

This was reposted by KJ..maybe he is staying?

Rhodymob05

Nice to see, Green, Wright, and Louis

Rhodymob05

Is Carter choosing NIL over the NBA?? Lmao

Rhodymob05

There’s some players now that have a great school, great team, great coach, great playing time and still jump ship. Besides money, there has to be incentive for players to stay lol, cmon.

Rhodymob05

I believe April is when most players make their decisions. It’s fireworks.

NIL has destroyed college sports. Not really though, college sports are doing quite well right now. Millions of fans tuned to linear coverage on CBS, TBS, TNT and truTV, with the momentum beginning with the Selection Show on March 17, when 5.9 million viewers tuned in to CBS for the bracket unveili...

This is a contract issue.

Rhodymob05

I’ve always been skeptical of lower conference players. Yes, there are exceptions, but they should be excelling in those low conferences. If they aren’t, they don’t do well in the A10. Stats matter.

https://x.com/GMUGiantKiller/status/1771572160332468488?s=20 Good size, Jersey. He avg’d 11 pts, 6 rebs, .6 blocks and 27 min/gm. Shot 56% from the field; not quite 60% on FT’s. I forgot Durogordon was at Sienna. He avg’d 18 pts and 7 rebs per gm. I saw some videos on him, looks quick for his size....

Is this a news or a theory?

That Mohegan Sun tournament was no joke. All except URI we’re at large teams.

I don’t think Kentucky can afford to payout Calipari and then pay another high profile coach.

Rhodymob05

That article referred to him as “the California native”.

Houston's defense is incredible.

Tell that to Foumena!

Bigs matter A LOT. See Oregon/NC State/Michigan St for example.

A10 definitely improved this season. I can see it continuing to improve.
