And we're not early on Cockburn. He's already been offered by Florida State, Georgetown, Georgia Tech, Illinois, LSU, Minnesota, Oregon, Seton Hall, Syracuse, St. John's, UNLV, and yes, PC.

Billyboy78

I didn't say anything about wasting time. No, an offer is not wasting time. Spending resources on recruiting him is.

Billyboy78

Will graduate this year. Might be going back to being a '17. Still undecided. Could still do a post graduate year at Brewster.

Billyboy78

I mean, we can offer Marvin Bagley too, but we're not getting him either.

Billyboy78

Thinking Big.......why the hell not? I guess hearing the news that we can't get even get a 4 star SF from our own backyard to be on his first list doesn't lend a lot of confidence that we can get a 4 star C from NY. That surprises you on Swider? You really thought we were close with him? No. But I ...

https://twitter.com/ASU_Hoops/status/859864361313095680 Looks like Bobby is doing a nice job out west Overall, yes, but he's learning quickly that building a program is no joke, as he heads into year three. They've had two highly regarded recruits leave, one this past December and another at the en...

Billyboy78

They could upgrade a section of Tootell to make it look real pretty to recruits....and it would cost a lot less than a stand alone facility. Next best thing. Right now I would think this program has other things on their "enhancement list" that are more of a priority. So since a new facil...

Billyboy78

I still think he ends up at PC. Like most kids who grow up in RI, he's a PC fan and loves Cooley.

Billyboy78

I'm thinking the Expressions kids are the ones most likely to come here now.

Interesting, Creighton, no URI. I guess Preston at least has this little NE/RI connection

Luke Murray too.

But the way many think, a practice facility IS necessary tor attract recruits these days. After what atp posted, it sounds like Hurley doesn't think it's necessary if they change how the Ryan Center is booked Sure, for practice. But people have said that a facility is looked at as a sort of status ...

No one is going to share with us?

Hard to understand why a 5th year big would go to a school like Kansas to sit on the bench.

Jaworski and Hoge....wow.

Billyboy78

What about that big guy from Europe that we were recruiting? I think he was from Italy? And I'm not talking about the invisible guy either. I think this one was real.

Billyboy78

75% from 3...possibly the best high school shooter I've ever seen.

Billyboy78

That's funny. I was just wondering if we were recruiting him. Cordell could really get off the floor. Looks like his son does the same.

Billyboy78

So when is the early signing period? What are the dates we should expect something on? thanks Signing period isn't until November. Normally we start getting some visits in June. Hopefully we get verbals shortly after that. I'm not sure when the Europe trip is, but obviously they'll have to schedule...

Billyboy78

I don't see Berry, Layssard or Tertsea defending a 4 either.

Billyboy78

Who are we watching for that game?

For some reason, Bill likes to criticize our fan base. Yeah, we bitch and moan about a lot of stuff. We criticize Dan and lots of other things. So does every fan base on their forums. PC kills Cooley often on their board and bitches and moans about tons of stuff. I've never seen him criticize PC's f...

Whoever ends up filling the 13th Scholarship would get to go on a nice summer trip, meet his new teammates and get to play some overseas basketball games - a pretty nice welcome to the team perk

Maybe that's why none of our players have transferred.

Ramster, that sounds like the ISU board to me. They were killing Juiston for going to UNLV, both him and the school. I believe that's where I saw the "offering something in the handshake" comment.

Billyboy78

If he is reading it, one message....anywhere but PC.

Billyboy78

So, Expressions players can now be recruited immediately, correct?

Billyboy78

This is pretty big news, in my opinion, deserving it's own thread. According to Dre, Ty is now an assistant coach.

Billyboy78

So, now we're talking about Providence College hockey on Swider's thread. We hate PC basketball. Hockey? Who gives a shit? Please take this somewhere else. http://urihockey.pointstreaksites.com/view/urihockey Some more relevant hockey news? Billyboy78 do you think PC has the inside track on this pl...

Billyboy78

Not sure I see the need for another PG, even a good one like Poyser. Fatts will be a soph, and Dowtin has already proven he can play the point pretty well when needed. Maybe as insurance? Otherwise another 4 year PG could be helpful in a couple of years. I would think Poyser would only come here if...

Billyboy78

He should have been fired two years ago. He just reported what the liars in the NFL office told him to report. That's not just what he did. He also stuck with his story when it was proven false. He actually just never changed it, which I guess is the same thing. I wonder if that story/tweet about t...

Billyboy78

I remember the connection! Cordell Llewellyn, who played for URI in the early 90s, had something to do with CIA Bounce in Canada. His name came up when we were recruiting either Poyser or Dillon Brooks. Maybe somebody can help me with that. Cordell also has a son who is a 3* guard in the '18 class. ...

Billyboy78

If We are going to add a big man, as Zags says, how can we be trying to get a transfer like Poyser?

Billyboy78

Wasn't there a connection with Poyser? Is he the one whose dad is a coach in Canada and one of his assistants is a former URI player? I wish I could remember who that player is.

Billyboy78

Well, my post was about Swider. All I said was that if he stays local, he really likes PC.

Billyboy78

Many of the great players in URI history came from Connecticut.

Billyboy78

The younger Mazzulla is going to GW.

Hannah Storm still thinks Deflategate was the taping of the Rams walk through.

On an official to Dayton today.

This is from his sophomore year. Looks really good on tape.
