The Men's Basketball Transfer Carousel 2023-24

[Billyboy78]

EC, Jared, and Jeff will be the last 3 inducted into the Ring of Honor? Good lord, melodramatic much?

Maybe URI should just shut down the basketball program or leave division 1? I mean reading this message board it's become obvious that we can't possibly ever compete in division 1 basketball ever again

I honestly believe they will be the last three. Do you really see someone who is a great player that deserves to be in a Ring of Honor staying here for 4 years? If someone is great here for 2 years, then transfers to get the money they want/deserve, they're not going into OUR Ring.

I do. Look at schools winning in the A10 now, they're keeping most of their players. We've been losing players because of bad coaching (Cox) and a losing program, but that will change

I hope you're right.

[PeterRamTime]

If Dino and I have the same intel, it's a player that has been discussed on here.

I demand more nuggets of info

Would we be

Happy

Or

Meh

If we landed this individual

[Jdrums#3]

Uh idk and how is it not a good omen, the kid played his heart out this year and doesn’t want to stick around and waste the rest of his years on losing teams, pretty similar to fatts when he left after his fourth year, but I think he’s challenging Archie to get him a supporting cast and if he doesn’t he’s gone, and I will say the coaching staff has been working hard ever since ish posted he’s transferring this afternoon, hearing rumblings about visits being set up soon for a particular player, but we shall wait and see as I don’t know if it’s 100% confirmed

Like seriously, did we think the coaching staff was hanging out at Bon Vue and then when Ish hit the portal put down their 7th beer of the day and said shit, maybe we should get down to doing something? Archie said right after our game ended last week that he was going right to recruiting and we've seen our name with most every transfer player that hits the portal

I think you're right...I was there at BV, reading the board, and I saw them and asked about the tweet showing Ish hitting the Portalet. And one of them did say, "oh sh--, we gotta go" and then they all left in a hurry, with Arch saying something about putting it on KJs tab...

Here’s the thing - maybe it is just how I think and give posters the benefit of the doubt - but no where in Dino’s post do I read that he said they were not working prior to Ish going in the portal. Inferring that is an assumption. That said, Dino, please feel free to come along and clarify what you meant if you feel the need to.

I just wanted to jump in briefly and point that out. No big deal. Not being critical of anyone’s post. Carry on.

Your correct JD, they’ve been working hard nonstop the past couple of weeks, I’ve heard they’ve kicked it into overdrive right as Ish entered the portal

[bigappleram]

The most “very happy” transfer we’ve been linked to IMO is Timberlake from Towson.

[Billyboy78]

I was very happy with Anthony Harris.

Maybe a couple of others also and there will be more.

Not sure if this was posted

[RhodyRams916]

Samb has officially entered the transfer portal.

[SGreenwell]

Samb has officially entered the transfer portal.

Thanks for the heads up! Going forward, for URI-specific transfers, I've renamed this existing thread.

Sounds good!

[Dino611]

One to DEFINITELY keep tabs on from what I’m hearing

[section(105)]

Shooter, can fill it up? A-10 level? I guess from where we are, we could do worse. One year?

[PeterRamTime]

Hell yeah!

Pride is a baller!

Anybody remember him dropping 25 on us last year?

[Not Mike Powell]

We are a program that makes the tournament once every 10-15 years. See you in 2028.

[bigappleram]

Can we get Pride to take a drive down 95?

Oooph. Hope I am still around. I’m not prepped for a looooong rebuild.

And Give him whatever vehicle Walker used to go up that way.

Apparently Jake does not understand the meaning of several.

I was very happy with Anthony Harris.

yeah, that worked out awesome...you don't just stumble across a 20 pager like him every day....

No. Not saying he didn't....doesn't stick in my memory though....

Nice job.

How bout a stand alone thread for all things Friartown like uConn and big east standalone threads

[rhodysurf]

[NYGFan_Section208]

Beautiful set piece by the Vaulter....

[Billyboy78]

Interesting that he's coming with no students here. Fellow female students are important.

[Dino611]

Well if you guys wanted to know the player Barrett and I were talking about here it is, guess I should start tweeting things out so I can get my credit

Tweet it now. None of the national guys have yet. As far as I know, only the Vault has.

[NYGFan_Section208]

Tweet away, bro' (still pass)

[reef]

Wow 18 ppg in 27 games , close the deal Arch !!

Done and done

[steveystuds06]

Can we get Pride to take a drive down 95?

Rumor is he does want to stay close because his GF is still at Bryant..

And word on the street is Bryant is in the same state as URI and the state of Rhode Island is really really small state...

That’s one I’d like. He plays hard and with a chip.

[Billyboy78]

I didn't know he was Tyus' brother.

[reef]

Pride and Battle would be a great start , I don’t care if they play the same positions we need talent !!

[jcru]

I could see Pride and Battle on the floor at the same time, Temple was playing three guard sets, the other guards would always get the ball to Battle when they themselves didn't have open looks. He wants the ball in his hands like lots of players we've had in the past, Fatts, Mobley, Tyson for that matter. It's not a bad thing for a 2-guard to stroke it.

This would be a huge upgrade in talent for us jcru !!

[Jersey77]

I would be all over him for an upgrade in the frontcourt, averaged a double/double, with good size and great strength.
2-years eligibility, 55% FG
He was NY Prep.

Played at Long Island Lutheran. Same school as Hutch.

My list of desirable of guard transfers in order:
Battle
Pride
Wright
Riley
Powell
Conway
Wilcox

(Didn’t include Timberlake cuz Ik we aren’t getting him)

There will be plenty more in the next couple of weeks as teams are eliminated from tournaments.

I'm taking Zid Powell off that list because he shoots 17% from three

Had enough of that crap

Zid would be an absolute blast. He’s a monster on the fast break. And he works his ass off. I’d love to land that kid. We have some shooters coming and we are recruiting plenty… that’s not our only need.

Well yeah if he's a great defender then that will make up for a lot of other issues.

Do we still think we have Jaquan Sanders on the way?

If so then I still think you need one of those other shooters to commit before you take Zid Powell.

Battle, Sanders and Powell would be good along with a PG.

Given coaching changes result in a lot of player transfers, which PC players are likely to enter the portal after Cooley leaves?
