Kinda doubt it at this point

They are just too resilient and you cant forget how they took out Alabama who was playing at UConns level before they ran into SDSU.

PeterRamTime

It’s been quiet on the Ish and Bray front. I’d make a guess Bray ends up at Bryant. Who knows with Ish. I think Ish is checking out his options as he should. He deserves to be on a winner. But if you get another legit piece I could see him coming back if we look like a winner Maybe land Pride and K...

PeterRamTime

I'm not sure what you are seeing in the highlights that is so different. I admit House looks a lot smoother charging to the basket among 3 other bodies in the paint, than Bray did. He has several outside shots, but off course the film is edited to show the ones he hit. And Bray took some outside sh...

Because I'm not impressed right now with the level of player we seem to be involved with.

The vibes aren't good imo.

We just got two starter level guys though...

Journal today has we added a transfer in, Jaden House, landed by Kenny Johnson, Guard, 6-4. Correct, was reported on Friday. Someone elsewhere here asserted that House was a Bray 2.0 talent. Hopefully much better n the head area. I know nothing about him. What are others take on House? Hes a differ...

This dude didn't excite me all that much anyways

So was Fatts Russell.

Both PG's

My point being, I don't think we just lost a PG to Dayton. They already have a PG.

PeterRamTime

jcru wrote: ↑1 year ago I mean, Dayton just got filet mignon for their transfer PG. We're going to go to war with them with warmed over mashed potatoes?

I'd rather go after PC's backup point guard who entered the portal.

Cheeks is more of a combo guard than a straight up PG.

PeterRamTime

This kid could be great but this team building is an abject disaster. There is no other way to describe it. Prep recruiting is awful. Portal getting killed both ways. Player retention is head scratching. This guy was the Dayton and Indiana coach with a name that has some cred and this is the best h...

https://twitter.com/VerbalCommits/status/1641457762465972226 Yet people here called him a cornerstone, someone we can build around for 4 years, regular rotation player from day 1, etc etc. Reason 58473729392929 why I cannot get excited about recruits anymore. He came in a project with upside. Plent...

PeterRamTime

Not a big deal whatsoever

PeterRamTime

He's definitely not 6'2

Offer list isn't amazing or anything

But I like what I see in the two highlight packages he has and his percentages are good.

I think he'd a a solid get. Maybe not the crazy difference maker we would want, but a solid player to compliment his teammates.

PeterRamTime

If you have concerns about the dudes ability watch the damn highlight videos

PeterRamTime

He's a 5 ya'll

Just go watch his highlights

This dude is as good and maybe better than any of the other bigs we were after.

PeterRamTime

BOOOOOM!!!!

PeterRamTime

Yessir!!!!!

PeterRamTime

Only 4 turnovers in 21 games for Jeff!

House would be a terrific get, but once again only 27 percent from three is concerning Yeah, but we also have a few more spots open we can fill with guys that shoot better from three. I doubt we get this guy and just bank on him alone to win games for us. Someone was saying something about Battle, ...

I think we will end up with more than 4 leaving. Right now we wouldn't even win 9 games next season with what is left. Not even close to 9. And the recruiting period in November for the 24-25 season is even more vital. I would love to know how our NIL collective compares to our peers. If Archie's h...

Don't really see why he would lie on the most popular sports podcast in America and say he wanted to come back to Rhody the day after his UConn press conference. He wasn't staying. Not after Slickee-boy Moore whispered sweet nothings in his ear for a whole year, not with Arrogant Haystack Calhoun a...

I think if we had ponied up the investments after 2017 he would have stayed a little while longer. He probably still would have moved on. Like maybe gets us to the dance a couple more times without any big time runs then goes somewhere like UConn. Idk. The allure of UConn would have still been diffi...

Great interview with Hurley on Pardon My Take. One interesting tidbit that I haven't heard before, paraphrased below: “My first couple days on the job when I got to Uconn – cause I loved Rhode Island – that last team with Fatts and EC Matthews and Jared Terrel – beating Tre Young and Oklahoma first...

PeterRamTime

You have 1 roster built predominantly thru development and continuity in FAU. SDSU and UConn’s were built similarly with a mix of development/continuity and Portalpalooza. And Miami’s built with the Benjamin’s from Johnny Ruiz. Since we don’t have a Johnny I’m thinking a mix of continuity and porta...

Looks like a good commit for Loyola. He shot 56% FG and 41% 3PT. He 0nly took 17 3Ps all year hitting 7 for 41.2% FTs 63-102 for only 61.8% And somebody also said that Bilau shot threes well this year because he shot 50%. He was 3 for 6. :lol: Yeah im giving Bilau credit! Made his first three! Dude...

PeterRamTime

Just me again, I have seen enough of our “bigs” taking ill-advised threes as part of the offense. Recent Harris, throw in a Mitchell or two. Is that what Archie’s offense is about? If you think big men taking threes is some crazy new part of the game, I don’t know what to tell ya. Pretty sure Archi...

Jordan Miller of Miami

I remember back when he came off the bench and killed us in his first ever D1 basketball game.

He could've kept on being successful at VCU and got a better job.

He is from state college so maybe that made a big difference.

Hot take

He will fail miserably there.

He was handed the keys to the most healthy program in the A-10 and has accomplished the bare minimum.

I just think he's a slightly above average coach. Average X's and O's.

PeterRamTime

I cant believe there's even a conversation about whether or not Dan would leave UConn

PeterRamTime

Those who say NIL is not important and point to examples, may be proven right, but I think most of those examples are things just aligning right for this period in time for these teams. Let’s see who has more sustained success those paying big NIL or these teams that are are having a moment. Time w...
