Anyone see/heard anything about how the team looks this spring? Been awfully quiet on the football front End of second week of practice. NE football journal had a piece weeks one. Some guys nursing injuries. Potential exists, waiting on portal, etc. so, not much. Seems like we got a couple decent r...

C'mon Paulie, the laces match the opposite shoe

I kind of feel the same about Worthy that I did for Keon after year 1. Not quite the same player, but I think both are tough kids who struggled a bit freshman year figuring it out. I'm betting Marqui takes a big step further next year, he appeared to be overthinking things last year and got lost in ...

This is a perfect example of a kid who would have been better off choosing a school based off playing for a coach who is a great teacher of the game and sticking there for a few years to learn the game. Not chasing NIL money or a big stage. Kid undoubtedly has great physical tools, but compare him t...

^ sure, that's why there's so many bars around town!

I can see UpState next season on SportCenter sitting all alone up in the rafters of the Mullins with his "College Sports Sucks" sweatshirt on

We need a GoFundMe to get him some therapy

Still workin on that minutefanjsf :lol: :lol: 8) I'm no legal expert by any means, that's why I suggested it being NCAA sponsored revenue so the wealthier programs just can't outspend everyone for players. Donors $ can go to the program itself. Of course, we all know things filter down, but at least...

It's more than just money, it's the new mindset of players. Look at duke, they just lost like 8 guys. You can't tell me that isn't gobs of cash down there to pay. It's the lack of wanting to compete, grass is always greener, thinking they are better than they are, etc. Wait until the inevitable exp...

NCAA sponsored salary cap (they make all the money) is the only fair way. Tier the money to each program based on division/power of conference, and then let schools decide on allocation. There's a reason why professional teams have salary caps

Maybe the call was someone calling him about a coaching opening

Never been a UConn fan either but most of us would love to have the success that they've had recently. Why can't UMass figure it out? Who knows but the portal $$ I think will make it harder

Yeah but they were 26-40 over those 2 years

One thing I think might be a weak spot for us next year is defensively at the guard spot, unless Nate G is as advertised on the defensive side. Keon was an excellent defensive guard and his physical presence was huge. Not sure we have anything close to that in Curry and Rahsool who are more offensiv...

He needs to go down a few levels in leagues You're most likely right, but honestly I think the kid is playing out of position. The games I watched of him at GTech, and even at UMass, he was out on the wing. With his height, length, and jumping ability he should be playing more on the interior. Bulk...
