Lol good question...

Relax everybody! There will be official visits before the season starts, likely in September.

If it did happen I'd bet it was just an unofficial. Not sure how much this staff would gain from an official visit when the campus is basically dead right now.

Everyone should be markedly better from the year of maturing. The familiarity. The fact that they have more help on the court will help. I think Gil's absence or another big next to Hassan will be a huge deal. Gil was tough. Whatever he did.. He competed hard and was strong. I'm not so sure Hassan ...

Again just my opinion, but I think our BEST line-up consists of Jarvis, EC, Jared, Kuran, and Hass. I am willing to bet that this will be the line-up that starts and finishes games for us this year. I'm not sure who I or Dan would want to take out at the end of games, but with his shooting I'd thin...

If Earl starts at the 5 we are in serious trouble. Earl is shorter than Iffy and a lot less talented than Iverson, period. To compare career stats is crazy especially when Kuran really only played half a season last yr, Not to mention Earl is 24. As crazy as it might sound, Iverson might have the b...

There is something to that way of thinking. Clearly P5 football schools have an economic advantage. But there is also a huge difference between VCU, Gonzga, Wichita St., Xavier, etc., and true mid-majors as the term is commonly used. Couldn't the same be said of Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, and any othe...

If you don't have BCS football you are a mid-major.... I actually am closer to this line of thinking. For multiple reasons. Mainly the fact that it is extremely hard to fund an athletic program off of the budget of a basketball team. Already as it is, there are very few Universities that operate in...

Kid made a decision based on the combination of both basketball and academics, can't really be mad at that. On to the next...

Same JC Earl went to?

I may be crazy but I seriously think over the next two years we have a starting five that can pay with anyone in the country. It'll be critical to our success for our guys to foul les than last year. Do that and we dramatically improve the type of season we have.

No the counselor games are not televised

I should correct what i said, THE PLAYERS never saw Butts this summer. This I know for a fact.

Any word of where he may have been arrested? If they say here then i doubt it's true. Leroy was never here this summer.

I absolutely buy it... especially on the heels of Shaka Smart going to Texas. The fact is Hurley has been here for 3 seasons and is going on his 4th. By the time this 2016 class are seniors in college it is not far-fetched to think that he'll be gone. Also unless there are early departures, there's ...

The guy that is 6'1 and won the dunk contest doesn't have great leaping ability? Not sure I can buy that!

EBo is Eric Youncofski's nickname, I think it is likely or at least makes sense that Martin moves up to one of the openings. That's speculation on my part. But I know for a fact that Eric has been heavily involved with the team this summer.

Actually from what I have heard, EBo has been doing the things the old GA was doing. Though I'm not sure if this means he'll be taking that position.

Anyone have an idea when the actual schedule comes out? I really hope they don't kill is by having the Dayton game during winter break. The atmosphere vs Nebraska was special with the students there! The VCU game had a good turnout but not the same atmosphere at all!

With Hass being 6'7" 235 I actually think Kenneth Faried is a great comparison. Let's not forget Faried played in a worse conference, but looking at their sophomore years the biggest difference is in rebounding. Aside from that there's not a huge difference especially considering the Ohio Valle...

Bigappleram I agree with you not sure Hassan is the guy. Iverson on the other hand seems to be the perfect guy to be able to run offense through. Especially in the high post, he height and wingspan alone make him capable of better passing angles than most. Supposedly he was the best passer on the te...

Bressler, I wouldn't be 100% convinced this is what I just wrote on that post: Ramsey, what day was this workout you watched Berry get thrown out of? I know Hass pretty well and not only did he say that never happened, but he also said the guys haven't done ANYTHING head to head. Everything has been...

Ramsey, what day was this workout you watched Berry get thrown out of? I know Hass pretty well and not only did he say that never happened, but he also said the guys haven't done ANYTHING head to head. Everything has been 1 on 0 or guard+forward pick and roll/pop situations with no defense or with c...

I think this year will be even harder to schedule tough games than last year. If I'm a top 25 coach I'm not bringing URI to my place because with the returning players there's a decent chance they can beat us at home. And I'm definitely not going to play URI at URI. It'll be interesting to see who i...

And my name is actually Andre but the nickname came from some high school friends back in the 90s when Southernplayalisticcadillacmuzic came out lol just kind of stuck

Haha pure coincidence no inside info

Still may come today, don't forget the time difference.

The 3rd visitor.

Kid with Hassan was his friend Eric Snipes, son of Eric Garner (the man that was died after being taken down with a choke hold by a cop). He and Hassan are really close friends and he is just visiting Hass, not URI bball.
