Re: Understanding the NIL
It's so freaking annoying. I said it a few days ago and I'll say it again. We may have the worst fanbase in America...

You are correct. International players cannot accept NIL $ as it is violation of their student visas. This from VCU Message Board re Shulga.

Some of these transfers just don't make much sense. This is 1 of them. Follows his coach across the country.

Re: ‘22 RI PG Sebastian Thomas (URI ---> Albany ---> URI)
After multiple horrible years and losing our top recruit, if our plan G was landing the leading scorer of the American East, I think that's great. If he wasn't named Sebastian Thomas, I think we'd have a lot more excitement about landing a guard who dropped 30-40 in multiple games. But for some rea...

Re: Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel and Portal - 2024-25
It took like 1 minute. How many of those centers a could be headed to the A10? Most of the really good ones are power 5 locks, and there’s a lot of ones who aren’t even close to A10 level, possibly dropping down to D2 or JUCO. Would take more than one minute to answer that question. :lol:
