Isn’t this pretty much what people were speculating about KJ and Alabama? It’s not that crazy of a tweet lol

You'd think so! Its not allowed, which is why the only NIL things for purchase we see are these stupid cartoon drawings of players with a generic jersey on. I have this hoodie for Sanogo https://uconn.nil.store/products/navy-mens-basketball-hardwood-hoodie-1 and this tshirt for Jackson https://ucon...

I am once again asking URI to do this. Jerseys, shirseys, etc. personalized to the player and that player gets a cut. Isn't this the definition of a "no-brainer"? You'd think so! Its not allowed, which is why the only NIL things for purchase we see are these stupid cartoon drawings of pla...

Check out this NIL deal at fellow A-10 school UMass. Their NIL collective was going to give RJ Luis some $100k over a two year period. Appears as if it still was not enough as he backed out. RJ Luis enters the transfer portal after agreeing to NIL deal https://dailycollegian.com/2023/04/rj-luis-ent...

Him going to PC would make little sense right? Like he has to battle with Oduro, Castro, and others for playing time in his grad year?

That’s an upgrade for VCU lol

I think the biggest things fans can do is recognize the different types of NIL deals and contribute. A deal where a kid is pitching "Go to Dunkin, they are the best," well he's being compensated by the company for his posts. A deal where a kid is pitching "Use my code and go buy this...

I feel like Rhodes is a coach that flops out at a higher level

rhodysurf

I think he has a really good staff too , DH really never been a great offensive coach now look how good it is Haha some of that is selection bias. He never had anywhere close to this level of offensive talent before. Last years UCONN team was unrecognizable from this one. Whatever he’s doing it’s a...

Something else to keep in mind with these lists...I wish I could find the tweet again, but I saw a reporter recently post that he saw a player mention a list of schools that he had heard from after entering the portal, so the reporter reached out to one of the coaches on the list to check with him....

I want to hate UConn but I can’t. They are the most fun team to watch in the country. Can’t even be mad Hurley left for this Right. How could anyone be mad at Hurley for taking that job? Coaches, just like players, want to compete at the highest level and he wasn’t going to sniff this level in King...

People in glass houses...I love the guy we hired and I know we're going to be very good. But to talk shit about PC losing their coach when we are where we are and it's very possible they go in and get someone better isn't a great look. That said, I'm all for hating for hating's sake. So hate away. ...

I do not see the reason to leave. I just don't

This is a joke right? It’s Georgetown, one of the all around most prestigious universities in the US, in the nations capital. PC is a nothing institution.

It is the same conference; he could build his own legacy, not follow in someone else's footsteps. Again weak move, and $ trump everything. So was it weak for Dan to follow Calhoun’s legacy instead of creating his own in Kingston? Totally different because that was to a higher conference on a much b...

Here’s the thing. If Cooley is their slightly better version of Baron do we really want him to go? They may end up with someone better. I agree with you but Cooley leaving providence for Georgetown is peak content as a URI fan. Their stupid fan base who couldn’t even get into their second tier cath...

Alsays pick Virginia to lose in the tournament if the other team can shoot 3s. It’s the krypton it’s to their packline

Ed Cooley cares so much about his Providence reputation and being loved in Friartown that he is allowing a massive distraction to hover over his team in a game against a blue blood that they have a very good chance of winning. Does that sound right? The mental gymnastics on the Friar board are pret...

Well damn Guess he would like to know what it's like to win games 😔 Not getting all conference after the season he had was the last straw I think. Would love to know your rationale on that. So you’re telling me since he didn’t make 3rd team all league he’s leaving for a better conference where he d...

VCU was pretty close to making it as an at large all things considered, they legit had to win like 2 game against cupcakes and like one mmore q1 game. SLU had to not lose to a bunch of crap teams.

I wonder if VCU would be on the bubble had they just not lost to Jacksonville. They'd be right on the cusp. Also had a Q4 loss at home to St Bona. I wonder how much that effected their NET though. Like would they be 10 spots higher? Remember your actual net ranking doesn’t matter. Only the net of t...

I agree, but there needs to be some acountability. Can't just pay a recruit for no performance. Need a contract on performance. Can't be performance based. Huh? That doesn't make sense. Why would I sign a contract with a player who doesn't perform? It’s literally the main tenet of the NCAA rule lol...

The decision makers knew they had messed up with some of their empty looking promises and threw money and resources at Archie and company. I don't know how true this is. The only "decision maker" that is still at URI from the Hurley years is Thorr and I don't think he wasn't trying to get...
