Re: A10 2024 Tournament March 12 - 17 Barclays Bracket and Results
As others have said as well, you have to make yourself an attractive opponent in order to earn those scheduling opportunities. Why would a P5 or other top teams from the better conferences want to play URI right now? Nothing good can come from it for them. VCU this year played: Iowa State, Boise St...

Yep, lots of coaches doing exactly what they complain about from the players, make as much money as you can and then take your money and run if things aren't in your favor anymore.

Re: Rhody Excellence Collective Executive Director
This is fantastic news! Having someone like Stone, who bleeds Keaney Blue, in this role should be a game changer.

If I am reading this right, all this pertains to is negotiating name, image and likeness deals during the recruiting process or while they are in the transfer portal. Doesn't seem like too big of a deal. I would have a very hard time believing that wasn't happening already anyway.
