WOW! I went out with some friends for St Patty's day and to watch some games.I didn't check KB site since about 4 believing nothin would happen for a couple of days, if anything happened . Got home a little over an hour ago decided to check and see this incredible news. I almost have to pinch myself...

Do you realize how the season tickets would spike immediately? Thorr it's not a dummy and he knows we can achieve at a big level

giovanni

All I can say is it seems legit based on the the number of national writers posting it. URI has the most to gain so I'd say the leak is coming from their side, maybe hoping it would make it harder for Archie to change his mind. Dan is talking highly of URI, the state and the job to media in Buffalo...

giovanni

Seems like a deal for Archie has been done for days...let's hope so. Could be the case and I am in agreement to hoping that is the case. This 14 day URI posting hire rules could hurt in this instance. It would provide other schools time to pursue him. Unfortunately I do not think Thorr can act unti...

I no longer have any legitimate sources but I did hear they were at least trying to aim high. Thanks to blueman , first of all, and also Rambone, ECR, Brady and others for keeping their head high and aiming high.. I have since 1980s and got rid of killed by some for trying to shoot for the stars. Al...

Been busy today. Make my day!!!

The transfer portal will continue to give the new coach an opportunity to turn the program back on the right track a lot faster. They will keep coming

Yes true but Pat Skerry Will only be getting close to Kingston if he rides the train alone

You might as well throw this one in too

Yeah really quick on Anderson. Just another example of how you have to take what someone on Twitter says fwiw.. Even if they have sources. I had Heard before the Anderson would really prefer getting back to the south. Would any of the SEC openings even consider him?

giovanni

The carousel continues to get bigger

giovanni

Yeah that one he said right when I turned on and said he had received a couple of calls from people he knows stating that again it was the belief that Archie's wife does not like a rural setting like Amherst at Kingston she loves the city life but the Golden Corral in Dayton was f'n awesome!!! Yeah...

giovanni

One of the guys that joined the conversation was involved in New Jersey AAU and was the supposed guy with New Jersey ties said his cousin, is The associate head coach at Colgate so he was very familiar with Langel

giovanni

Interesting nuggets right there. Surprised he's heard Archie would be most interested in coaching at GW. Yeah that one he said right when I turned on and said he had received a couple of calls from people he knows stating that again it was the belief that Archie's wife does not like a rural setting...

I listened to part of a coaching search show on Twitter last night . It was run by the UMass insider Curry Hicks Malaise. A couple of nuggets that he and his guests said. He appears to be pretty plugged in fwiw. He said he heard Archie Miller would be most interested in GW job for A10 openings. He s...

giovanni

Excellent player and obviously his dad played here. Maybe , or probably we would have no shot, but there will be a lot of guys out there for the next coach. And I would still be hopeful that a couple or a few of the guys will decide to come back after the new coach is named and they talk with him

I think this is surprising. Maybe back to Kansas St?

I don’t think it’s kosher for an AD to fly to an NCAA site and hover around potential candidates or try to meet with them immediately after a Loss or between wins. So IMO Thorr being in Buffalo likely has little to do with our search. I would think those conversations are much less obvious and held...

giovanni

With all due respect to the players that have thrown their name in the portal and those that will, unfortunately this is pretty much or is a total rebuild. I hope every player comes back and see what happens with a new coach. But if they choose not to, that's their option and I wish them the best. T...

I think the bottom line with any of these rumors is if we like the rumor we'll believe it and if we don't like the rumor then the source doesn't know what they are talking about! That's not meant as a knock on anyone or anything, just the natural way that we as fans tend to react to these things. I...

giovanni

It’s the right thing for every single player on the roster to do. What if the new coach doesn’t like your game and has no intentions of giving you playing time? Go figure out what options you have. I’m sure URI will be back in the mix for any players the next coach views as valuable Agree what do t...

giovanni

I don’t know much about hoop dirt but it doesn’t seem like they are even attempting to claim any sort of source and are just aggregating here - and not even sure that in URI’s case that is exceptionally good aggregating. But if what is being said here were true I think we can all agree that’s reall...

https://hoopdirt.com/daily-dirt-3-14-22/ "A lot of names early at URI, but two getting the most attention are Bryant head coach Jared Grasso and New Mexico head coach Richard Pitino. Still early here though- more on this one soon." Absolutely gross. Like done with men's basketball for fou...

Obviously one of these things is not like the others.

Kimani Moore also. Whether people like him or not, he has been a name thrown around

You “guess” he would be better? Literally the reason I latched on to the Miller conspiracy is because I thought that would be the best we could realistically do. That Mack would be way above us. A-10 conference title. A-10 COY. Big East conference title. Big East coy. 4 sweet 16’s and an elite 8. 9...

I don’t know how some have Xavier last four in. Dayton and others are more deserving than X. I know it’s not a rule bt 8-11 in conference should disqualify you. Xavier and Michigan need to be far far from the bubble. No idea who’s people have them in. Michigan 34 NET Xavier 41 NET That’s why they a...
