RAPID REACTION - Michigan

Of course we play our best defensive game of the year....(based on adjusted defensive efficiency) and lay an egg shooting. I have very little complaints. We shoot average we win by a few possessions and I thought our non Ace looks were good and the Ace looks were the same that go in during the season.
Yup. Very frustrating game, very frustrating season.

Don't really have any complaints today either

Basketball Bailey struggles, Rutgers Basketball falls to Michigan 66-63

Both can be true.
And both are true
The problem is, our defense has been ass all year because of lack on interior play. I’m not talking about Ace
Loss today had zero to do with defense. Though UM did not have to take 1 outside shot. If they played nothing but the paint they would have fouled out 3 guys. We had nobody that could handle their bigs. UM played unselfish ball and hit alot of cutters for easy hoops.

Anyone else have a problem with Grant and Dortchs minutes?

See I disagree. Martini worked hard but wasn’t effective. Wolf and Golden were very efficient down the stretch. Ultimately it’s 6-6/6-7 vs 7’. Give me the bouncy 6-10 kid with tremendous reach. Grant and Dortch did well in the first half inside.
He was very good with switches. Teams figure out how to beat us defensively and use screens to get match ups they like OR even better have RU leave an open man.

I know +/- have flaws. Who had the highest +/- in the game on either team?
Zach Martini +10

Is this class done?

Even with what op referenced, you should know we are always adding players well past the NLI signing date. Antwon Raymond committed April 17th last year.


Yeah use an outlier that doesn't apply to his question, especially one that was a special situation dictated by Raymond's HS dropping football.

Anyone else have a problem with Grant and Dortchs minutes?

ZERO issues....Zach Martini played a huge role in our defense. He is the best at defending and switching screens. I thought he gave the defense a huge lift when he entered the game.

If anything I have an issue with Somerville playing.
Martini was hustling but did not offer consistent defense. He had 3 boards in 27 min Dortch had 5 boards in 9 min.
Hustling is great but moving with out purpose is pointless.

Men’s Lacrosse Travels to No. 20 Lehigh For Saturday’s Opener

OSUs HC should be very nervous.

I’ll say it again for those in the cheap seats. We’ve had an antagonistic poster here who won’t be named but he’s come on here saying how bad the recruiting has been under Brecht and used Inside Lacrosse rankings as justification. I said at the time to not put that much stock in those.

Lehigh routinely, according to IL, out recruits us. For those that watched the game, would you say that’s true based on what you saw? Our size and speed alone makes that laughable.
The Lehigh announcers noted a couple times RU is the bigger, more athletic team.
