This new landscape of college sports is turning a school's fan base on itself with the who's a bigger fan or real fan based on if and how much you donate to its own NIL fund. it's wild. can't be a fan anymore unless you pony up on top of whatever you already do to the institution. And don't forget,...

I tell ya, I am in need of inpatient Rhody rehab. My SSO for URI was locked because I didn't do a required training, and I have 35 papers and 35 Mid-terms to correct. I am having a minor procedure on Friday which disallows any alcohol for 5 days prior to anesthesia. Almost everyone on our team has ...

I'm probably jinxing things, but I'm surprised that our season ended 6 days ago and we've only had two players announce they were heading to the portal so far. I really expected a flood Well the two that entered knew they were going to be asked the leave, the reason others haven’t left is because t...

Was wondering how much in compensation and benefits the typical URI player now gets and decided to put something together. These numbers are just some ballpark figures. Stipend $6,000 (NCAA allows up to $5,980) NIL $30,000 (URI avg - see below) Tuition/Room & Board $50,000 (out of state URI cos...

Tough break for HC Alexander and Belmont, after winning their last 6 of 8 regular season MVC games. Two of their top players both sophomores have decided to enter the portal: PG Ja'Kobi Gillespie (6'1") - Averaged 17 pts (56% FG, 39% 3PT, 83% FT)/ 4 rebs/4 assists/ and 2 steals. PF/C Malik Dia...

The A10 got one less team in the NCAAT than the nbe. LMAO. Do you call all conferences “new?” New a10? New ACC? New sec? New big 12? Think it’s time to drop that, doesn’t make any sense anymore. Every conference is new. No. It is a consistent reminder to them that they are not what they were before...

I'm open to the idea of replacing any current player with a better player.

Yes, those 2 along with Danny , Luke Murray and Tommy Moore all spent time @ URI altho....Moore never left CT. Actually Calhoun planted him here and then dug him back up out of the ground and moved him back to CT when his Calhoun's plan was carried out. Career-wise, yes, but he never moved from CT....

I’m confused about why PC fans are coming to our message board today. It’s a massive day for their program as they may or may not make the tournament, and you want to come here to talk shit about Archie? Then again, most of their fanbase is like this, so I’m not surprised. Because Providence fans s...

Love stories like this... Six days after he was dismissed by the team, (Dan) Monson led Long Beach State to the NCAA tournament with a 74-70 win over UC Davis on Saturday in the Big West tournament title game, adding at least a few more days to his tenure. On Monday, Long Beach State announced it ha...

There might not be that many actual transfers…
But EVERYONE wants to know how much money they’re getting paid next year.
So I’ll take the over if it’s based on portal entrants.

that's what I'm talking about - portal entrants

Nah but just thinking about it, Hammond isn’t playing behind Ways, and I don’t see Dubsky sniffing the floor at all Dubsky could stay - he shoots at a high enough level to keep around.

Today I’m watching VCU v st. joes and Duq. v the bonnies. These matchups tell me how getable of a league this is. Earlier this week at the harbor pub, the tender johnny said to me “Mr. matunuck, mr. matunuck, what do you think the rams should do this year?” and I said to him “reload.” Is "swee...

Gosh golly gee...you should replace Archie with a breakdown like that. How come more coaches aren't successful? You've just revealed the secret to successful coaching. Winning at college basketball should be so easy. By the way, what's "rocket surgery?" t's a humorous conflation of two di...

Watching this A10 tournament play out tells me there is opportunity for parity in this league. Everyone in the league is an offseason away from being a have or have not. It’s also a extreme missed opportunity for Rhode Island Rams basketball. We should have been in the mix. Rebound the ball, make f...

Rhody Excellence is the collective for women's and men's basketball only. Other teams can and some do have their own NIL group. Got it. Does the donor get to decide if their RE donation goes to men's or women's hoops? If so, and all want their cash to go to the men's team, will the collective face ...

NYGFan_Section208

Each individual fan should do what they are comfortable with. Personally, I am not going to go back to work to fund the NIL contract of a great college basketball player. The program needs all the fans it has and more. I would never throw shade at someone for just buying tickets and doing 50/50 raf...

This is not a secret. As a result of these preliminary injunctions, the NCAA recalled their previous institutional Rules for NIL. A quick google search will also show you what the prior NCAA restrictions were. This is not dispositive of the fact that Rhody Excellence is not contracting recruits. To...

This kind of mentality is the end of college sports.
