LOSS ON PIKIELL

 

[IL Lusciato]

**** this season.

 

[RUJMM78]

73-60 DePaul with 12 seconds remaining.The difference in this game was the number of foul shots made .

 

[koleszar]

Yeah the Baker last shot thing no longer works good night we suck

 

[Plum Street]

Baker shoots, misses and we lose...

Here come the vultures !

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

First time I’ve seen them this season

They are a bad basketball team

 

[Caliknight]

Team stinks

 

[Mr Magoo]

Worst pike coaching job in a long time

 

[FrankZ]

T them up for taunting. Like we do

 

[ClassOf02]

Very very very badly coached team.

 

[gigantor1024]

6 free throws to 33? Lol

 

[CodyRU]

DePaul won 5 games last year. FIVE

 

[scarknight90]

Good. At least we know where we stand early.

****in garbage ball

 

[bac2therac]

A hideous loss

 

[kt124]

bad bad loss, early wound to our tournament chances

 

[Rokodesh]

I would feel better if we lost by 25

 

[whofrewdatmataRU13]

Harper is the hot hand and thats the shot we take, HAHAHAHAHA

 

[RUSeaGirtMA]

Could be a long season if these guys don’t wake up.

 

[bac2therac]

Cant even rebound

 

[ScarletDave]

Should have been a T for spiking ball. But 28-6 foul shots not surprised.
Big East refs still doing what they do

 

[Shell21]

DePaul is a bad team, yes they hit some threes but we are a poorly coached team

 

[soundcrib]

Why not run it for Ron? He was the one that was hot

 

[RU848789]

Well, now we really know that we're not going to be very good this year (couldn't be sure after the first 3 games IMO). So much for all the talk about this being Pike's best team. Disappointing.

 

[Plum Street]

Quad 12 loss

 

[rucoe89]

Pikiell screwed himself by talking up was really is at best a very mediocre team. This is maybe an NIT in a best case scenario. And that is a big maybe.

 

[fluoxetine]

What a stupid loss.

 

[hbbsm713]

Not a good sign for the season.

 

[Scarlet Craig]

Frustrating.

Really wonder what kind of season this is going to be.

I’ll answer…not a good one. Oh well. I’m afraid I’m starting to think Pikiell isn’t the guy…we have a bunch of seniors but we play stupid and our recruiting is cruddy.

 

[scarknight90]

Harper is the hot hand and thats the shot we take, HAHAHAHAHA

TRUE, BUT AT LEAST MCCONNELL WAS IN FOR THE FINAL SHOT. GREAT JOB PIKE!

 

[RUsojo]

Wake up call

 

[Mr Magoo]

6 free throws to 33? Lol

When you stand around and shoot 3s with time running out, you generally don’t get fouled

 

[ColonelRutgers]

Wait till last year. Good night, folks.

 

[AshCatchEm]

So poorly coached that there's not ONE PLAYER down the court when they miss the FT wow

 

[RUTrack94]

Good news is we can lower expectations the rest of the season … I miss the days when Rutgers outworked teams. Plain and simple, not playing like a good team.

 

[SBP]

Geo misses more of those than he makes, that’s a fact.
Too little too late
This team needs a back up center… badly

 

[FrankZ]

DePaul’d 🤦‍♂️

 

[rucoe89]

Well, now we really know that we're not going to be very good this year (couldn't be sure after the first 3 games IMO). So much for all the talk about this being Pike's best team. Disappointing.

Pikiell has lost a lot of credibilty for his hubris in hyping a very mediocre team.

 

[Caliknight]

This isn’t a tourney team. Miss JY and Miles..


None of these guys got better. Still can’t shoot and now we can’t rebound. This isn’t a tourney team. Simple lack of talent tells me that .

 

[motorb54]

Did not deserve to win.
They wanted it more especially in the first half
They attacked the glass and seemed to get every 50/50 ball
They played hungry.............. the way Rutgers did a few years ago.

 

[RU89]

Young and Johnson. Thats all that needs to be said
