What a bum. Last name only. Guy averages under 5 points a game in 20 mins and is a 36% shooter. I'd love him in the A10 to ridicule in person though. Calling him a bum is going way overboard. Cardiac arrest in the preseason, didn’t get cleared for the beginning of the year. No chance he was 100% an...

One thing that I think absolutely needs to change is the collective has to have the option to direct your payment 100% to the program of your choice. You have the option to donate to specific programs in athletics. Need it for NIL as well. Some want it 100% to mens basketball, some 100% to women’s b...

This guy said ponzi scheme 🤣🤣🤣 Clueless. Stop that now You are hurting my feelings By Ponzi scheme I am inferring to paying money with no return on the investment You pay to get players and then they leave in a year Call it whatever you want It's not just no return....it:s absolutely no return ev-e...

How? If you want to get good players, this is how you get good players. You certainly don't have to donate, you certainly don't have to buy in. For everyone that doesn't want to jump into it, just don't whine about the quality of the players we have and how many games we win or lose. This is the in...

We are seeing a lot of coaches getting promoted from non P5 to P5 , it’s about identifying those up and comers

Multiple coaches go from non P5 to P5 every single season.

This isn't a new trend.

Really nice addition for the Joe's in the portal. He started 25 games at PG for Rutgers and led the team in assists, steals, and FT% (86.4%) Also good size at 6'3", 2 years of eligibility, and can make a huge impact dropping down to our level. Had 23 pts/ 8 rebs against Ohio State, 19 pts/ 6 a...

Why do walk-ons come here (or anywhere else) in the first place? They know they're not going to play. If it's playing time they're looking for, why not go to a lower level to begin with?

So I'll just ask Stone here. If top players are going for about $250K a year, and we get a starting five that the NIL is paying $1.25M a year for players, how does this work? So fans contribute money to the NIL, to pay for top players to come here and win games, pack the Ryan Center and go to the N...

Isn’t this a positive by subtraction. ? +1000 - something seemed "off" with Zek, he clearly has a ton of ability but way to often he just seemed like he didn't care and didn't want to be out there. His complete lack of effort at times was both maddening and frustrating. I don't fault Arch...

I have a feeling that after Dan wins 3 or 4 national championships at UConn that he and Andrea will retire here in Rhode Island and Dan will coach his last 4 or 5 years here. I think he feels his work isn't finished here. He's 51 now, so they come back when he's 56 and he retires when he's 60. And ...

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...

Losing Zek and Weston kind of sucks, as I was hoping one would stay, but we should be able to find players of their caliber in the portal. The question is, can we get better players than these two? If Fuchs, Farrell,Hammond, House, Cam, and Luis are sticking around, we should focus on landing a sta...

And right on cue, we won’t be returning our Top 6 scorers lol Zek is leaving.

Why is the focus just on high school players and college kids in the portal? Do any coaches go to men's leagues and see who is playing? I bet you could find some dudes who are 21 and balling, but just weren't interested in school or college a few years ago. With NIL, you could get some street playe...

Dan wants to keep them. He specifically lobbied in that last contract to expand his pool to pay them more. They’d definitely be worthy of a job - but I think Dan wants to pay them well enough to stay, and wait out a plum P4 spot. Plus if you’re making low level HC money, why would you leave the wel...

Very surprised about Thomas All Conference, tons of minutes, tons of shots, basically did whatever he wanted. Not surprised at all. Why not check out the NIL market and see what he is worth, I am sure they would accept him back anyway. Besides he may have the opportunity to join an NCAAT team. Bask...
