Men’s Basketball: What will the program that lands Cheddi Mosely be getting?

"The best attribute to Mosely’s game is that he knows how to put the ball in the hoop. It’s the most basic part of the sport but the 6’3 Mosely can get buckets with the best of them. As a freshman in 2014-2015, Mosely averaged 8.6 points per game in 24 minutes and shot an impressive 39.8% from three en route to All-Patriot League Rookie honors...The major reason why schools like Ohio State, NC State, and Wake Forest are after Mosely is simple. Who wouldn’t love to have a proven, veteran scorer come off the bench and provide solid minutes? If he winds up at a Power Five school, Mosely will be a relaiable option off the bench on both ends of the court."

Not that we should be clogging up this guy's recruiting thread with that...

If he can give us 15-20 minutes per night and shoot 3s between 35-40%, he's worth a scholarship for one year.

Not sure what you mean. He hasn't really played since 2015-16, when he was second on the team in minutes and second on the team in PPG as a sophomore. I'm not sure if he started every game or not, but also not sure if it matters if he was playing 30+ minutes per game.

I don't really get what the issue is - I would think if he came here he might challenge for the fifth starting spot to begin the year and regardless would be firmly in the backcourt rotation getting ~20 minutes per night and ~8 ppg, which would actually be a pretty big help considering how many minutes and points we are losing in the backcourt off of this year's team. Not sure if you are expecting an EC or a Jared to come over and be immediately eligible, but I think that is pretty unlikely.

shooter and can score in bunches. perfect instant scoring off the bench.

and most importantly, gets us back in the best names running. We've been slacking since Mbang, Parfait and Orion Outerbridge

I really do not get the sentiment of people dismissing a players ability to contribute to a team or fill a role because of the conference he came from. Posters seem to automatically assume someone can not contribute or or be good enough when they come from a lower conference. Or automatically assume because he comes from a Power 5 he is automatically good. Just such short sighted vision without seeing the bigger picture and potential. Did you think Dowtin was not good enough for the A-10 because he was under recruited?

If he comes here, can we call him "Cheese", or the "The Cheese", or "The Big Cheese", or "CheeseMo"?

ETA: "Cheddi Cheddi Bang Bang for three!"

Agree I wonder if Nova ppl were saying that when someone from Fordham was going to transfer there or how about TJ McConnell transferring from Duquesne of all places to arizona. PC has a George Mason transfer providing value. Look deeper than what school someone came from.

Someone post his you tube highlights this kid can score the ball !!

OrangeRam · Unread post by **OrangeRam** » 6 years ago

Some one has already posted highlights of this kid.

Go to our NCAAS or BUST! page, Re Transfer Carousel - 2018 Page 2. You will find it there.

This kid will play, and get his shots, no doubt with the best 1 2 point guard tandem URI has ever had. And probably will ever have. And he will play, Nice range, but he will need to shoot well into the 40 percent range. Not under. We need some serious scoring, as we needed some type of inside presence last year to help with the loss of Hassan.

Yeah with him there would be a lot of potential for us to be a very good shooting team.
Martin is a shooter. This guy can shoot.
Dowtin has been efficient.
Fatts is really hot or cold.
CT could become the shooter he was expected to be.

Oh shoot

He could play the 3. With Jeff and Fatts penetrating the dish out for the three pointer will be open.

Cheddi also retweeted a couple tweets that stated he was being recruited by URI and one was a retweet stating he narrowed the search which included URI. A recruit wouldn't retweet something that isn't factual.

Think we should wait for news from Cheddi himself before we panic. I think we must be still involved until I hear other wise from more credible sources.

Is Brand saying that "Cox" is not involved the same as saying "URI" is not involved? Maybe another coach is the lead on him? I have no idea, just wondering.

No blue checkmark and it's not Bill Koch... so why are we taking that tweet seriously? May as well be "fake news".

Just look at Cheddi's twitter, he has re-tweeted a bunch of URI tweets.

Scott Brand is just a URI fan and former team manager in the 80s. He's also a member of KB. I think he's confused.

That's all fair, I just wish as a board we would be more focused on posting tweets from reputable sources.

Yes I never heard that he visited the campus. And that tweet only stated offered. But specifically here cheddi retweets the tweet that mentions he has narrowed his search which includes uri. It's the first tweet in his page.

If this wasnt true why is this the first post on his Twitter feed.

jcru · Unread post by **jcru** » 6 years ago

I like what I am seeing from Cox so far. He has assessed the immediate need.

He needs someone who can come off the bench and play significant minutes and hit jump shots in traffic and under pressure. 2 point jump shots and 3 pointers. This and the Omar thread point to that.

Do we have 2 scholarships available? I think we actually do, no?

Cheddi sounds like just the thing, but it's a risk, because he basically didn't play the last two seasons. If he can come in here and stay healthy an entire season and be productive, it will be a great gamble. If he reverts to the production he gave BU the last two seasons then it won't be. I think that is the only hesitation here.

The nice thing with him being a Red Shirt Sr transfer, is it basically doesn't cost a schollie for '19. It only happens if it is mutually beneficial to both parties.

Sorry, grad transfer

I agree. I like Scott, he is a poster here and runs a cool Rhody Facebook page that people should follow, but I haven’t seen anything to indicate he is sourced in such a way to correct actual reporting. Likely there is just some confusion there. I’m going to keep assuming we are in pursuit of Cheddi until someone with some sort of track record on info reports otherwise.

DC_Rams · Unread post by **DC_Rams** » 6 years ago

I get the apprehension, but of all things for Scott to just randomly make up, why would this be the recruit he did it for. He’s around program insiders all the time, I’ve seen him talk to players and coaches repeatedly after games. He just may have stumbled across this information and shared. I believe him, besides it’s not uncommon for kids to list schools that haven’t even offered to bolster his recruitment. I think this is one of those cases. But I wouldn’t be as naive to think because he retweeted something it means that it’s 100% in its entirety true. My .02.

I messaged with Scott about this on Twitter. It seems he is unsure if Rhody is still involved.

When you try to temper your interest in a player it's because you're after someone you want more and you're worried about what they're hearing.
