If he can get the waiver, I agree.
Waivers seem to have no barriers anymore

He’s a great guy and was a talented high school baller himself. I can’t speak to his sources, or lack thereof.
Cool I hope RV joins KB sometime very soon , he needs to be here and we can work very well together

Why are people here so critical of RV to the point of doubting his validity as a person??? The dude just grinds putting out Rhody content. Maybe he's being a bit over enthusiastic on trying to break news, but he hasnt been "wrong so many times" about anything his news like BigApple is claiming

If i missed something that he said that was wilding wrong than please tell me, but rn aall we can do is wait and see on what happens with Tre. RV put his nuts on the line with this claim!



And to answer the question...I would love Tre here. Need a big man and he's a proven stud in the A10. He's immediately be the focal point of a previously non-existent offense. Also really doubt TB would be part of the deal- it famously didn't work out at UMass and i don't recall any discussion of him joining the staff at Texas

I had heard from an sports agent that Archie was interested in a different college than URI, but subsequently it fell through and he signed with URI. The same person told me that the Mitchell twins were being shopped. I reported both here before anything happened. The first didn't happen, the second did. RV is doing the same thing from his sources. Until it's official, nothing is certain. I do not want to discourage the reporting here of rumors from sources with inside information.

He said he was first one the Archie news (he wasn’t) and then said the Mitchell’s transfer to Arkansas fell thru and it wasn’t

Not that it really matters, just a bit curious - but do you know what the other school Archie was interested was?

Idk if you were a lurker or you’re brand new - but 72 is probably the greatest troll of all.

Or he’s Gary Busey.

And his agent source is Jerry Maguire.

Pay little to no mind.

Do not fall for 72s tricks. The only agent he speaks to is in his TV screen when he’s repeating you had me at hello while watching Jerry Maguire

I’m not sure who specifically we are talking about here in terms of doubting his validity as a person, but I’ve been critical of the !!!BREAKING NEWS!!! stuff on his account because I just don’t think it is necessary. The content that account has produced has been first class and has filled a huge vacuum for URI basketball fans. I see the attempted entry into the Insider space as damaging to the account’s credibility. It isn’t necessary, in my view.

Couldn’t agree more with what you said. Reality is the vault started in 2022! If there wasn’t a credibility issue no one would even be talking about it. Reality is there already have been a few kinks in the armor. You cannot build credibility over night, it takes time.

He didn't identify the school; but I got the impression it was a school down south. As for the Mitchell twins where was it reported/rumored before I mentioned it here? Check the time stamp.

I wonder if this is how things played out.

There was much speculation that Archie's (along with his wife) alma mater NC State might dump its head coach Kevin Keatts and have a job opening. AD Boo Corrigan however on March 2nd confirmed to the media that Keatts would be returning next season. The Wolfpack's poor play had fueled the rumors as they went 11-21 overall and 4-16 in ACC play this season. They were knocked out of the ACC Tournament in their first game by Clemson on March 8th.

URI fired David Cox on March 11th and had Archie Miller confirmed as its next head coach by March 17th.

That same agent told me that Phil Jackson was considering us as well. And Bobby Knight... I asked if he wanted to go get a beer to discuss this but he was too busy hanging out with Rod Tidwell.

Eh, if his final two are Cincy and Georgia, and he's transferring from Indiana, Archie might have realized it was a steep uphill climb to recruit him to URI.

Nothing crazy. Maybe Archie knew he was staying in that Midwest area I guess.

I have been checking the forum frequently, just hoping to see a commit. But I keep having to remind myself that Archie and his top assistant were not in the college game last year…it’s going to take a little time.

There is like 1500 transfers still available and people are still transferring… They all won’t be committing in the next few days.

Was thinking the same thing.

Would have at least liked to get one new guy by now.

And for everyone who will now say “why are you doubting Archie, trust him, he knows what he’s doing, blah blah blah”….we have 6 kids currently on the roster.

Not doubting him, but still would have liked some new guys.

That’s why I’m skeptical he would recruit somebody like Tre Mitchell. As talented as he is I wonder if would be coachable under Archie’s system.

Ya, but we need bodies NOW!!!!

We should have begged Brafford to commit, so we had one less roster spot.

I could care less if we get commits now or in a month as long as he builds a team he likes. Archie said he'll be recruiting players for months.

I also don't know why people think this is going to be some quick fix and we will instantly be a tournament team. I expect the big home run recruits to come during next season.. 23 recruits.. I don't expect any results next year but who knows..

It's going to be a very quick fix. Get ready for whiplash. Arch will get a big commit, then it will be like a dam break. Nets overflowing, fish everywhere...it's gonna be beautiful.

Maybe that is why Archie wanted lleri so bad with the open roster spots-lol? Archie will be fine and they will eventually get guys although I think it will take time to get both recruits and transfer and turn us into an NCAA program right away. Things could change quick if he brings in 2-3 guys for sure. Basketball programs can be turned around much quicker than football programs. I think we all probably overact and want the quick fix and get aggravated when we don't see it. The one thing I do know is the current talent on the roster has zero percent chance of making an NCAA tournament run with even John Wooden coaching them.. I'm not sure there is one current player on this roster that really should be a starter on an NCAA caliber type team. With that being said the money is invested in both basketball programs and future success looks great!

Ya, but we need bodies NOW!!!!

We should have begged Brafford to commit, so we had one less roster spot.

I could care less if we get commits now or in a month as long as he builds a team he likes. Archie said he'll be recruiting players for months.

I also don't know why people think this is going to be some quick fix and we will instantly be a tournament team. I expect the big home run recruits to come during next season.. 23 recruits.. I don't expect any results next year but who knows..
Careful Stevey; Blue Man promised to punch in the face anyone even slightly critical of Archie. Maybe Archie feels that his best chance to get more money next year is the GPA bonus and a year 1 buy-out.

I’m actually being sarcastic 72… I’m ok with no commits yet.

I get why people are anxious but we need to give him time to build this roster. I think he’ll have a solid A10 team next season.

Are you sure? ECR promised me that we would be a tournament team next season.... he even posted a 4 page set of song lyrics to prove it!
