Incomplete guards are the issue

Better complimentary players OK. Better coaches, nope. Very few of them are ever successful coaching in the college ranks where way more actual coaching takes place, except in Rutgers case.

Do you think our current staff is telling Ace where is shooting percentages are and are not good?
Do you think they are telling him "you shoot better from the left wing than the right side so take that shot? (Hypothetical)

What analytic analsis on his game do think he's getting?

Harper should have been in the hospital

Should have been receiving IV fluids and IV antibiotics since he got sick.What kind of team doctors do we have? By the way in November the federal government rated NJ Hospitals. RWJ NB was only giving 2 stars out of 5. ST. Peter's received 4 stars.
You think he didn’t get treated? What is going on around here? People are losing their minds.

CNBC valuation of top 75 athletic programs

Some school revenues and their associated valuations I find are on the high side like Cuse, UDub (just got into BIG), Miss St, Iowa St, Ks St and seem over inflated.

Didn’t the guy (Belzer) who led this valuation analysis go and/or taught at RU?

GO RU
Yes and he still does.

OT: College Football Playoffs Semifinal Games 1/9-1/10 Thurs-Fri

Weird flex by Freeman, IMO. Franklin was just being Franklin. He's a little douchey and that's part of his personality. Can't say if he was trying to talk down to Freeman or not. When I read the hairline comment, I thought he was being self-deprecating about being bald.

Have known people like this- the slightest bit of a remark that is intended to be fun and lighten the mood is perceived as an unholy insult and pisses the other person off. There may be more to this story, and maybe Freeman has a chip on his should as being a very young HC in the CFP.

Now, if Freeman was just ginning the situation up to give his players some more motivation or edge, it worked.
This story reminded me of Apollo Creed and Ivan Drago:

Humor didn’t translate. I see this all the time in work environments.

Harper should have been in the hospital

Why is it weird to discuss on a fan message board the topic of our leading scorer being sick for 3 straight games? It’s a topic.

I was in Indiana for that game and he was downing Gatorades pregame and in a hoodie and warmups at the end of the bench. Having him fly out there for that game is up there with Schiano’s timeout against Illinois as the dumbest coaching decision of this school year
Nothing compares to Schiano's asinine decisions:
* icing the kicker
*opting to go first in OT @ Illinois in 2005 after winning the coin toss.
*declining a late 4th and 1 fourth quarter penalty against USF, which then converted on the next play and went on to win the game on that drive.

Schiano's decisions are the worst in the history of sports. The only other which compares is Cristobal handing off to an RB to reach 100 yards against GT in 2023 instead of victory formation to win the game. RB fumbles, GT recovers and throws a long TD pass with 1 second left to win.

Figures only a prior Schiano assistant would be just as stupid.

OT: Fascinating treatment for PTSD and addiction

See my first post in this thread below. I said MDMA and Psilocybin are further along than Ibogaine, as they should be. I am fully prepared to use both once they are approved.

What you aren't understanding is people are using Ibogaine and reporting it works. So why not study it, find the mechanism that works, see if it can be separated from the mechanism that causes the cardiac issues and have a safer, effective medication?
Because there is no reason to work on something that taps into the same part of the brain as known, proven drugs that do the same thing.

It’s not worth it.

Please answer the question, have you ever tripped in your life? What experience do you personally have within the realms?

Basketball Rutgers wing Antonia Bates to miss rest of the season with knee injury

@APKnight just making sure you see this after accusing her of sitting, quitting, and transfering…
WTF is wrong with that guy? Antonia is a Rutgers loyal daughter through and through. Rutgers prep, Jersey girl, has social media following and reps RUWBB in a way we should all be proud of. What a tool that guy is, get him outta here ! This is for RU fans

OT: New York Mets 2024-2025 Off Season Thread

Boras screwed Alonso just like he screwed Conforto.
Yeah right. Boras just screws his clients, which is why he has so many of them.

A reminder. When Alonso reportedly turned down 7/$158, Boras was not his agent.

In Conforto's case, it was not Boras' fault that Conforto had a season-ending off-season injury in his walk year.

Official How Much Will We Improve Prediction Thread (Off and Def)

Why would we play better offensively? The scheme stinks,the players struggle and everyone appears to have free reign when it comes to shooting.

This is who Pike was,who Pike is and who Pike will always be from an offensive standpoint.

The Wisconsin and Purdue shooting percentages from 2 were obscene. Those two teams missing threes was more due to them being off than being highly contested. Basically, we're lucky we didn't get completely annihilated.

Stop Dylan at all costs, let Ace shoot his crazy twos and don't worry about the rest. It's the shortest defensive prep a team will have against an opponent this year. You don't even have to bother doing a defensive walk-through of the ru offense.
Which is why we should go exclusively pick and roll with Dylan and Lathan or Dylan and ACE and pick and pop with Dylan and ACE. Lathan and ACE can catch a pass or a bounce pass on the roll. Ogbole is incapable. Play simple basketball and just copy Wisconsin and Purdue and what they did to us. We have the better players or for those holdouts , at least as good in our top 3 as Wisconsin or Purdue.

Halftime Dance Team

The TV giveaway thing is so cringe. Can we put that money towards NIL instead please? It's not like we have trouble filling up the RAC, wtf is the point of it?
First of all the dude holding the TV box doesn’t even have his arms fully extended to hold the damn thing.
How big is that screen, it’s the size of a large computer monitor or a giant iPad.
Yea it’s lame.

Secondly…..seriously shout out to the dance team. When they started the song I was bewildered, but that was pretty impressive. Like 20 completely synchronized spins. Maybe that dance coach can come help coach some offensive off ball movement.
