If all of this pans out, we may want to reconsider the school who many feel would be the ideal candidate to be the next Big East member.

The surprise would be if they do NOT fire his arse.
Hey Abu you like pressers so I hope you attend the one that terminates your coach. So far a total waste of 3 years you fool.
Now I am a guy that roots for all RI teams when they don't play us...but I must make an exception this year.
I really do hope the Rams lose to VCU Feb 25th and hope they lose big in A10 conference.
Why you ask? Glad you did...because that rat clown Boswell joined the Rams staff this year to coach another of his kids who likes pressers in Terrell
It would be so cool for him to have wasted 3 years too thanks to Boswell's advice.
Unfortunately my fear is that uri does some damage in the A10 tourney to dash my hopes. However if they do win and Dance maybe Hurley will be gone
and that will be my consolation.

Perhaps, 78...but remember Brad Stevens was the head coach of Butler when they joined the conference...and, then, his replacement was a no-show...

Dex...the two recruits I wanted desperately to see in the black and white were Abu and Jakarr Sampson...they would have rocked the Dunk...

Abu made a mistake and gave us Ben...doesn't mean he's a bad kid... perhaps just advised by a bad guy.
Sampson? You didn't miss much...he turned out to be bad teammate But he could throw it down alright

Sampson has his shortcomings but he would have made some freakish plays in the Dunk...eye candy type of a player...
The Abu-Ben situation is steeped in bad decision making...Abu screwed up by not staying local and playing for Ed Cooley, while Ben screwed up by not staying in town long enough...

I think we got the best end of the deal with that. I wonder how Abu would have developed under Cooley?

didn't abu play in a sweet 16 as a frosh?
Terrell - didn't cooley stop recruiting him?

Hmmm. NC State has an LOI from Thomas Allen (6'2" SG 3.7-Stars) of Brewster. #11 ranked player in new England.
(Just imagining a few moves further down the chessboard)

Yeah Abu with Cat Barber et al beat LSU and NOVA in 2014/2015
He withdrew his name from the draft last June...last year anbd this year averaging 28 mins and roughly 12 and 7
He's a good player and a good teammate on a bad team. However that loss to Wake is bad and 3-10 in conf is bad
Maybe they can pay off the refs and win their Tourney? Maybe he should transfer to uri if he doesn't go pro.
Maybe he's having a ball bird-dogging beaver down there but I submit Boswell screwed him up.
As far as Terrell is concerned Walk, you have for years failed to acknowledge that Terrell was committed before Josh Fortune
announced his intention to leave. Ergo, sticking pins in Cooley is a fool's errand.

The projo had indicated we were back recruiting him when he backed out of OSU....then he was at URI as we allegedly backed off. Weren't we also recruiting devonte graham?

I suspect Terrell knew he wasn't beating out Fortune for the next 2 years...and Cooley was coming off some huge recruiting years. He chose big Fiush in a small pond. Hey that's ok.
Do you think Graham was being recruited as a PG by Cooley?

I thought graham was a combo...
