I preface this by saying that I agree with everyone that the supporting cast Pike assembled this year left a lot to be desired and was a major reason we stand at 14-14 (7-10). But the series of injuries, illnesses and misfortunes that beset this team also contributed greatly -- Acuff foot injury, JWill shoulder injury, Dylan flu, Dylan ankle injury, Ogbole knee injury (just when he was starting to contribute), Ace illness/asthma, and JWill flu. Yes, other teams suffered injuries and illnesses, but I'm not making excuses here, just telling the reality that with the subpar supporting cast, Rutgers was just not equipped to operate efficiently with major pieces out of action or limited.

The absence or limitations of Dylan and Ace were the primary factor. Rutgers is 6-3 in games in which both Ace and Dylan were healthy, and a stunning 1-7 in games where one of them was either out or limited.

When both Ace and Dylan were healthy (6-3):

• PSU - win
• OSU - LOSS
• UCLA - win
• Nebraska - win
• Illinois - win
• Iowa - LOSS
• Oregon - LOSS
• Washington - win
• USC - win

When either Ace or Dylan not playing or limited (1-7):

• Dylan flu:
  • Indiana - LOSS
  • Wisky - LOSS
  • Purdue - LOSS
• Dylan ankle:
  • PSU - LOSS
  • MSU - LOSS
  • NW - win
  • Michigan - LOSS
• Ace illness/asthma:
  • Maryland - LOSS

Take this for what it's worth, but despite the limitations on this team, we could be 16-12 or 17-11 if Dylan and Ace had been healthy this year and sitting firmly on the right side of the bubble.

The other consideration to make with the analysis.......
The Iowa game we were great when Ace and Dylan were off the floor together. I think we win that game if Dylan was out.

My sister's kids just got admitted and she said she's a little leery about the fact that there's no dining hall on College Ave

No, I said. There's good old Brower.


Nope, she said. It's permanently closed and has not yet been replaced.



What kind of clown shoes university doesn't have a dining hall on its main campus? Do college ave students have to take the bus to eat????

Can Anyone Confirm That Brower Is Closing?

Heard Brower is closing which means that the College Ave revampment may finally be underway. Can anyone confirm this to be accurate?

Major changes in the works for college Avenue, several buildings to be demolished and a state of the art large student center to be built

They don’t have a good option to start it mid game and catch up to live. I tried multiple times and it always freezes as you try to skip commercials. Not sure if this is intentional or just a crappy platform

My feelings is there’s one more time, when the Techs rise for the first quarter earnings, and then crashes when the earnings comes out. I’ll be out of Tech stocks by April or May. Tom Lee is still convinced buyers will come back into the market.

I don’t know exactly since I only track this in my head but most of the real crashes happen right around earning season especially when the tech stocks have announced. Currently, the 15-20% drop in tech stocks are normal for most quarters and go up again when earning comes out.
