URI 2023 Transfers - Who Will Stay and Who Will Go?

[RhodyRams916]

Barstoolrhody really annoys me sometimes. Do they realize how bad of a shooter Thomas was and that he wouldn’t be getting over 10 min a game next season?

Yeah whoever runs the account is an outright dumbass, I remember during my freshman year (Hurleys last year) the guys who were running it were absolute diehard fans would make podcasts like Scott does every week and would even be on the fan forum, but now it’s just an outright joke with people who are casual fans, like when Bray got kicked off they had no idea what was happening behind the scenes

This season they have been insufferable. Just complete casual fans.

Archie takes your ultimatum, and laughs in your general direciton

And states "we will be good when we are good"

DA is right....we are way less effd now than we were last year at this time....

Ngl I’m not impressed with the schools, and no Maryland

Interesting mix

[bigappleram]

Kinda unexpected list. Def not a ton of power schools.

[rhodysurf]

Excluding Arkansas, not a ton of guaranteed winners in that bunch if that’s what he’s looking for

[bigappleram]

Given the health of his father I wonder if he will leave the east coast area? Was shocked not to see a George Mason or GW, no Maryland or KState where he has relationships. And plenty of lateral or even downward moves. But this is just who is contacting vs where he ends up.

Ohio St had a weird down year, they’re always in tourney contention.

Would assume Moser gets OU back in in the mix as well.

But yes, not too much tourney contenders.

[Billyboy78]

Don't forget, he's still open to return here. None of our others in the portal are. I still think there's a chance if he sees us bringing in upgrades in talent. It might be slight, but I still think there's a chance.

[rhodyblue12]

He'd probably do ok at Towson or Vermont. But who knows, maybe he is missing the twins.

He belongs here. He could just be pulling an Isaiah Wong and holding out for a better contract.

Can we put the franchise tag on him? With three years of service is Leggett a restricted free agent?
Is that an NCAA rule yet - if the player signs an offer sheet with another school you have seven days to match?
Do we get a compensatory pick if he signs with the other school?
It's all so confusing these days.

Only ok at those two schools?

He’s be first or second team in the CAA or America East.

[steveystuds06]

I would love for Ish to go to Ohio State. My second favorite team…Go Bucks!

It’s not gonna happen. I’m moving on. I wish Ish the best!

I knew you were going to say that Stevey, when I saw that list.

[Iggy1979]

Bigger schools not interested in a 2G who shoots 32% from 3.

[Rhody15]

Still seven P6 schools with three perennial tournament teams on the list.

My wife went to Michigan- we don’t discuss that Ohio team in my house

Seriously she doesn’t really follow it.

Probably the best you can hope for at this point is a sign and trade?

Nope, he already changed his social media profile photo. If that means anything.

[Jdrums#3]

I have no idea what it means. I was at Rhody we’ll before social media came to be.

Did anyone here take Social Media Translation while at Rhody ? Could help us with sorting out the Portalpalooza related social media clues.

[hrstrat57]

Only schools close to the beltway on that list are James Madison and Towson. If Terps or Hoyas truly aren’t in the mix Archie might have a shot at retaining Leggett IMO depending on who we bring in. I still see Leggett as a strong fit with Miller overall philosophy of play who will continue to get better.

[rhodyblue12]

In the past I have taken a hard line on kids who put their name in the portal.

But I really wish Leggett would stay here. It would be nice to have one thread of continuity in the program.
He is not only a good player but a hard worker and seems like a really good young man.

[theblueram]

Agree about Ish. Kid is a baller. And Archie is blowing up this roster because it sucked. Hope he can stick around and make this team better next year. Cause we got players coming in.

[Rhody72]

If things are as bad at URI as many of you think, Archie could take another job after 4/15/23 for an $800K buy-out.

[NYGFan_Section208]

Just wanted to let everyone know that Arkansas told me if I entered the portal, they'd be interested. Any of you guys get the same?

[RhodyRams12]

[reef]

Agree with this take

[luke]

Put me in the column of those who truly wish Ish would stay . He has done all he could for the program thus far and deserves to be part of the
transformation when it happens .If they could get Battle and retain Ish the team could be on its way in a hurry. Ish please , please , please stay .

[reef]

Don’t hold your breath Luke

[Rhody72]

If Ish leaves, we will not be better next year with just the recruits to date.

[steviep123]

If Ish leaves, we will not be better next year with just the recruits to date.

No sh1t, Sherlock.

[KeaneyBluBallz]

our whole roster can enter the portal for all I care.

doubling down.

If I was Arch, I would encourage the whole roster to explore their own options. No one, no one, on this current roster has a guaranteed spot next season.

Tripling down

blow the sumbitch up!

[steveystuds06]

It’s posts like this one that makes you the troll legend you are.

Bravo!

Nah I thought we were winning the A10 with the current guys.

[PeteRI]

Not a large crowd, but I'm hoping Carey comes back. When does everyone have to decide?

Yeah love to have Carey come back. I can't get enough of turnovers, offensive charge calls and missed layups.

If they get a more talented PG, I'll take it back

Yeah, no thanks. We can do so much better than Jalen Carey. He just isn't consistent enough.

[section(105)]

I think Jalen is spent here. Time to more this roster along.

No. He was an awful shooter this year and a liability on the court with his low basketball IQ.

Whaddya mean? He consistently has turnovers, offensive fouls and missed layups.

[Rhody_NYCT]

Everyone is expendable. EVERYONE!! Even Ish. I like him a lot, and he fought hard for us. But he’s replaceable. I’m just being honest and real. I’m not sure he would have gotten much PT on our tourney teams with Hurley. I also don’t see him starting on a decent P6 team. I would be shocked if he got real minutes at Ohio St, Arkansas, Oklahoma…no way. Some here need to take the blinders off. DiSano is 100% correct. This season was terrible. I wish our transfers all the best. Time for change.

[rhodylocal]

100% hope Jalen comes back to take advantage of his extra year. We all have heard Archie say it, it takes time to learn a new system so he will be better next year and can help teach the system to the incoming players. We need some upperclassman to set an example and him coming back would be a blessing. I know we all hoped for Jalen to make a bigger step this past season but lets keep things in perspective.

[RamStock]

Not a large crowd, but I'm hoping Carey comes back. When does everyone have to decide?

Yeah love to have Carey come back. I can't get enough of turnovers, offensive charge calls and missed layups.

Carey coming back would be awful news. Move on and start over

[KingstonLane]

Do we anticipate more folks entering the portal? Surprised we haven’t seen any other names yet

[rhodyrudder]

The roster is 100% Archie’s at this point.
