OT: FIFA flaunting facilities at Rutgers as 2026 World Cup base camp option

I pity the team that gets Penn State lol. All these nice resorts and hotels and you get stuck in State College. The place is a ghost town in summer but then again it would be a great place for keeping the team focused on soccer and preparing.
But HEY I hear they have the best ice cream!!!!!

OT: Cancer related to alcohol

I think what we are seeing is the same issue we saw with eggs. Eggs are good for you, when the chickens do not eat processed trash.

Alcohol I think is the same thing. When we mass produce, and use pesticide covered crops, and add chemical flavorings and components, we see a rise in cancer associated with it.

But maybe it is just the conspiracy theorist in me.

BB Recruiting 2025 European Forward Denis Badalau commits to Rutgers Basketball

I'm not sure what fans want......if we take someone with height or size, then people say the player is out of position.....if we take a true guard and he's not 6'3" and shooting 40% from 3, then it's trouble.

I keep saying Kaden Powers is an option, just as much as I stated Dylan Grant would be helpful to RU last spring. We have Powers to work with and he will be a factor at SG, his size is the prototype guard we have claimed we needed via the portal. Ideally, Powers and Zrno give us good options at the wing or SG spot.

Except it has nothing to do with height. Dylan was listed at like 6-7 wasn’t he? Most of us would love for the scouting report to be decent ball skills on Zrno, but that’s not what any of the pods have suggested. They have all been consistent unfortunately - saying he’s a catch and shoot type wing. Buchanan’s ball skills could very well be next best on the court most of the time (I’m expecting a Hyatt level handle from him and would love to be pleasantly surprised that he’s better). Hyatt was no 2 either by the way.

Nobody except you expects Powers to play much at all. He’s a true frosh and all the scouting reports on him suggest he’s a project on D which doesn’t usually earn you early PT on a Pike team.

Everyone would love for you to be right as the lone predictor of the optimistic unexpected and, sure, there are always positive surprises so if you pick a ton of them every year all the time, eventually one will hit and you’ll be right. But unfortunately we need more than one or two pleasant surprises to be decent next year.

Powers may be an option, like Grant was, but that doesn't really mean Grant helped, he was just different than what we were putting out there. 5 games under .500 w Grant shooting 20% from three and poor defense. We'll need better help than that out of one of them this year. Footspeed is my only concern with Zrno.
