It's a substantial step up - Rhode Island is A-10 which is on the mid-major/high-major border (3 At large A-10 teams this year, whereas the NEC won't even get an at large into the NIT).
That said, I wish he stayed and I hope Bobby stays to coach Wagner. I understand that the mid-major life is one where the low-majors are clear stepping stone, but they didn't even get a tournament bid, and they had some nice recruits coming in next year (including a 3 star who'd committed to MSU).
