Transfer from Tulsa

1 year left of eligibility. 2 seasons at Tulsa. Did also play 2 seasons(?) for Independence CC, former JUCO All American Honorable Mention, 2021 Jayhawk all-conference 1st team.

67.7% FT at Tulsa last year, but 73% FT at Independence CC.

10.2 ppg, 5.3 rpg

Down to three schools, all A-10 schools: Rhode Island, St Louis, St Bonaventure

https://www.espn.com/mens-college-baske ... tim-dalger

Went back and looked at his Tulsa bio, not sure that adds up. They list his first season at Tulsa as a sophomore. I'm guessing he just did the one year at Independence ala Wright and Buru.

He played 2 seasons at Independence JC, 19-20 and 20-21.
Freshman season: 11.6 pts/53.9% FG, 37.5% 3P, 66.7% FT/ 6.9 rebs.
Sophomore - 18.4 pts/48.1% FG, 34.2% 3PT, 71.8% FT/ 8.1% rebs.
He would be a nice 1-year loaner and a good fit for us.

Another thing to take into point is that looking over St. Louis forum is that they are hosting an Ole Miss’ forward on an official visit, so things are pointing in our favor more and more

This isn't dead just because Green is incoming. Bonnies fans aren't confident so may be down to just SLU and URI.

If there are serious doubts about a waiver for Green then it makes sense that Dalger is still an option for us. Dalger plays for us for his last year of eligibility and then - after practicing with the team for a year - Green fills Dalger’s roster spot.

Maybe that was/is the staffs plan and solution to avoiding another Ant Harris type situation (for different reasons than Ant’s situation, of course) with Green if the waiver doesn’t come through.

That is a scenario I could envision playing out as Dino alluded to above but, the downside is that Green misses almost two seasons of live game competition and that would suck for the young man.

That said, wow! The Green commitment came out of left field for me tonight after reading the Dalger tweet earlier today. Man, I was getting prepped for a favorable Dalger announcement. I hope we still land him.

Get us as many 6’7” athletic dudes that can shoot/score on this team as possible - have not had an impactful player with those measurables on the roster in many years. Tired of playing small. Put Dalger and Green out there as your 3 and 4.

According to my sources, the recruitment of Tim Dalger is not in play. Obviously when David Green was brought in that filled that position. I think #gorhody will be pleasantly surprised and pleased with David’s commitment and career at Rhody Hoops.

Green will probably be sitting this year, so hopefully this doesn't turn into another Ant Harris situation.

First step is to actually get him here on campus, even if he is going to be sitting, else he becomes an instant distraction.

I trust your sources Scott and feel Dalger is probably SLU bound.

Hope you are right about Green, but if he is denied an immediate waiver, it still currently leaves us with a big hole at that position for this upcoming season.

If he left the team mid season of his own volition, I don't see how he is getting an immediate waiver, but we will see. He said on social media "it's been a long four months". Do the math.

Like I said, we'll probably be lucky if he is on campus this season.

Hard to know all the specifics but at least according to reports we showed strong interest in 3 kids that also had interest from other A10 schools. We lost all 3 recruiting battles.

Lafayette kid to Fordham
Pride to Bonnies
Dalger to SLU

No matter who you slice it that’s not great. None of them are program changers but all 3 collectively are better than what we got instead of them.

Exactly, this is the only reason I am slightly concerned. I don't know that it changes my long term outlook all that much, but for this season it's not ideal.

Dan Hurley got very good players to commit when we sucked. He got EC Matthews before he even had coached one game here.

Dan might be the best coach in the country. It was a slog for even him, but in retrospect we were very fortunate to have him here at that time - with someone less competent we could have collapsed beyond saving. As we get better under Miller, we will get better players interested in coming here. It’s going to be incremental growth most likely. The thing that sucks is that the first year was a nothing and left us with very little build on. I’m confident we will be better next season but it would have been nice if the starting point was a little higher.

Agree on Dan, but when he came here, he was a lot less accomplished at the time than Archie is now. Dan had the Hurley name going for him, but the Miller name is nothing to sneeze at either. Dan got EC and then Jared a year later, players I,and almost all of us, were very excited that they were coming to URI. I don't see a single player that I can say I'm excited about. I guess my point is people are saying Archie will get better players when we start getting good, but Dan got them way before we were good, even though, as I said, Dan was far less accompllished, at the college level, than Archie is right now.

I don’t think their names have anything to do with it. Dan is just exceptionally talented at connecting with people and selling a vision - that’s what makes him a great coach and what allowed him to have those early recruiting home runs. Not everyone is Dan, and so all our coaches aren’t going to follow his same path. Archie is a good coach in his own right, and I’m confident that he’ll eventually be successful here. But he’s going to have to do it his own way and follow his own path.

We really don't know what we have with Estevez and Dubsky . Am I the only one excited about Estevez and Dubsky ? They may be getting overlooked by
KB because of all of the constant reporting on the Transfer Carousel . both players are highly rated and appear to fill the offensive holes with players who can shoot for a change . If both become excellent players , that may be a better freshman recruiting class than just EC . I don't know if that
will be the case , but there is no reason to believe that they won't be at this time. We will see .

I was bashed by a few negative people on here when I said I was high on them. But I will admit, the more I watched Connor he really doesn't do anything but shoot right now, so he does have a ways to go to make a big impact. Cam, I think could be special.

Yeah Billyboy , but was anybody that high on Hassan before he got to URI ? He turned out pretty well too . I take your point that there were two good recruits that first year and you are correct . I'm an NJ guy and still a big Hurley fan , but I'm an Archie fan too as a Dayton grad , so I'm expecting great
things from him sooner than later.

Hahahahaha better than EC and Hassan. Both of them were Top 125 kids with multiple P6 offers.

EC averaged 14 a game, was A10 co-Roy and a starter.

Hassan averaged 6 points 6 rebounds and 2.5 blocks. Started the majority of the year.

For their careers they led broke records, led us to multiple A10 titles, multiple NCAAs, multiple NCAA wins.

Future URI Hall of Famers.

Dubsky and Estevez won’t sniff that production.

These kids are not highly rated either.

IIRC, Hass was injured either his junior or senior year in high school. That's why he was under recruited. I believe he was still a 3* prospect.

Hassan wasn’t rated top 125 and slipped to us because he had pre existing relationship with Dan (from Wagner) and got injured his junior year and missed spring AAU season so he flew under the radar. P5s may have been after him if he played it out but he signed early. EC def had P5 interest. I believe Missouri was hot on him.

In terms of this year’s group I’m getting more intrigued by Estevez. He was the 6th ranked kid in CT and everyone above him went P5 and a few ranked lower than him did too. CT rankings encapsulate all the NEPSAC kids so there are some dudes in the top 10. He’s got great size, played for a great AAU program (Riverside) and just finished a strong final year at Canterbury. I’m guessing by conf play he is getting some burn.

Hassan wasn’t rated top 125 and slipped to us because he had pre existing relationship with Dan (from Wagner) and got injured his junior year and missed spring AAU season so he flew under the radar. P5s may have been after him if he played it out but he signed early. EC def had P5 interest. I believe Missouri was hot on him.

In terms of this year’s group I’m getting more intrigued by Estevez. He was the 6th ranked kid in CT and everyone above him went P5 and a few ranked lower than him did too. CT rankings encapsulate all the NEPSAC kids so there are some dudes in the top 10. He’s got great size, played for a great AAU program (Riverside) and just finished a strong final year at Canterbury. I’m guessing by conf play he is getting some burn.

Updated 2016? Makes sense he would be that high. He was not that highly ranked when he committed.

Rhody 15 with your typical arrogant tone . At this point you have no idea what Dubsky and Estevez will become and neither do I . But I hope they make you eat your words before their careers are over and maybe right away , you never know . look at Tyler Koleck at Marquette now . Had no rank
at all out of high school and was not considered a prospect by most schools . To say that Dubsky and Estevez won't sniff the production of Matthews and Martin is a bit arrogant and presumptive don't you think ? Now if you said I don't think they will do as well would be different , but what a know it all tone you are using . I didn't say they would be better than Martin and EC . First of all I forgot Hassan was with EC that year , so the comment was about 2
good players vs 1 in EC . And I qualified it with if they both became excellent players because unlike you , I don't know for certain how they will do ,
but you seem pretty certain about your opinion .

I remember Hass being a top 125 player when he committed.

I’m pretty positive every single poster here would agree that Estevez and Dubsky will not compete with being A10 co-ROY, lead us to multiple A10 titles, multiple NCAA wins, national rankings as high as 16th, be a Top 3 all time scorer, Top 2 all time shot blocker.

We are literally talking about two of the best URI basketball players of all time. EC was a projected first round pick after his sophomore year. Hassan one of the best shot blockers in America.

So yes, I’m pretty confident these two kids won’t sniff URI basketball legends and HOFers. Call me arrogant if you want. Don’t think I’m going out on a limb with this prediction.

And if I’m wrong, so be it. That means we had another Hurley type NCAA run.

Just another example of someone here overhyping incoming players by expecting them to have EC and Hassan type careers.
