This is a really bad take. You don’t know his relationship with his players and casting a wide net like “this type of coaching” is a broad generalization and naive take. The guy is 1 of the best at what he does.
Unbelievable season of firsts for

Best win of the

Sad for David Cox as he’s a good man and was a great representative for

➡️:
Fatts Russell thru 3 games. 16 assists, 10 steals and 5 turnovers. Better decision making and impacting the game beyond scoring, two huge areas of improvement needed after a rocky sophomore season. Rhody will go where the back court can take them this year. 🐏🐏🐏

@MenInBlazers
We have zero offensive strategy. Do we want to play through the wings or through the middle or worse yet hit 50 yard balls and pray someone finds it on the other end. Put Konrad and Pulisic at the wing spots and get them the ball in space.
As of today
@RhodyMBB
Fatts Russell leads the country in steals per game (3.3), Cyril Langevine is 10th in the country in rebounds per game (11.1) and Jeff Dowtin is 18th in the country in A/TO ratio (2.8).

This is crazy. Greatest coach in PC history in terms of success and longevity. Why not thanks for the memories and 12 years of your prime? Instead it’s a TMZ style piece
For the entire season national media and A10 pundits have largely slept on Rhody and that’s fine. But I think they have undervalued a team that is A.) battle tested from a difficult OOC and B.) led by a core 3 that have played lots of high leverage games.
@RhodyMBB
@A10MBB
Reminder we have reached the point in the season (Portal open) where PC fans don’t think A10 players suck anymore. This lasts until the Portal closes or right around September 1. Then it’s back to the league is trash. It’s like clockwork.
@bballbreakdown
You are really digging here. Nice resolve, but you’re wrong. His ex players making millions that could easily blast off on him, and agree with your point, are unanimously in the opposite camp as you. But carry on
@Ozarkdaredevil
@Snaves
When his choices are better than to pass to Sands or Acosta then we can have this convo. Until then I’d roll the dice with him 1v3.
Great dub by
@RhodyMBB
against a very good St Joe’s squad. Archie coached his ass off. Numerous moves with personnel and on both sides of ball that were critical in last 5 mins. David Green is the Rams most impt player. 2-0 with him back.

They sell out 13k to every game. And he spent a holiday weekend plastered all over ESPN at the Maui tourney. Exposure isn’t an issue.

Gritty win by

tonight, Nicholls State has all the earmarks of a good mid major- shot makers, athleticism and experience. That win should age well. Next up, Jamaica mon. 🐏🇯🇲
Rhody brings in a dynamic undersized PG next year in Ben Hammond. I wonder if there is an assistant coach in the area who might relate to that and be the best PG to ever call Kingston home. Archie should make that call in offseason.

@TaylorTwellman
That’s on the coach. That was a disgusting lineup. Left loads of talent on the bench and gave 90 minutes to our 2 weakest midfielders. It’s almost like you need creative players to actually create opportunities.
Solid dub for
@RhodyMBB
Were the better team throughout. Depth on display with Green in foul trouble. It’s almost like Archie didn’t forget how to win games in this league. 🐏🐏🐏
Good dub against a Umass team that plays hard. Back court was the difference. Estevez and House were lights out. David Green was David Green. 4-0 since his return. LFG

I’m starting to wonder if you even watch cbb. Goldin hasn’t taken a 3 in his career; Wolf took almost 90 of them last season, stretches the floor, can put the ball on the floor. Goldin is an old school big. They are both tall that’s about the only similarity.
In the last 2 games against the biggest teams in the country (Seton Hall and UW)
@RhodyMBB
Makhi and Makhel Mitchell have combined for 34 points and 23 rebounds. That would seem to bode well for A10 play.
First A10 program to make a Sweet Sixteen. The team that got me hooked on Rhody hoops with so many great players and interesting stories. The star PG with a bullet in his arm, the local kid who became a pro, the greatest big man in Rhody history that played on 1 leg. 🐏🐏🐏

Initially felt bad for Marcus Evans, but nobody disrespects Jeff Dowtin. The kid is all class and plays the game the right way; to even think he contacted him with the intention of hurting him is absurd. A bitch move in the handshake line. Man up Marcus.

What player would ever want to play in Minnesota in February. This is an asinine decision. We are the more skilled team so extreme weather only benefits the opponent.

continues to play at an all conf level - 25pts, 6rebs, 3 assts and 11-11 from the line last night. Rhody guards needed to be dam near perfect to get that W; and they were. 🐏🐏🐏
I understand the convenience of predicting Rhode Island last in A10 based on recent program history. I saw them last week. That won’t happen. They’re on the road back.

@FOXSoccer
At his peak he was so good. Never should have left Italy. That exodus of him and others back to MLS spelled doom for the program.
@TaylorTwellman
@USMNT
Who made this decision? This is old USMNT thinking. We aren’t the gritty team that needs to win ugly against a more skillful opponent. We are the more skilled team why would we dilute that advantage by playing in arctic temperature. No soccer player wants to play in 20 degrees

@tsnmike
If interest wanes it won’t be because of NIL. It will be bc of the inability for fans to connect to players bc they become 6 month mercenaries at a school. This isn’t really that hard to understand. And if there is an impact it won’t be immediate but gradual.
