Worse than Shelby ?Pike could go 0-1000 and it would have nothing to do with the fact that you are the worst poster on this message board

Great question, some people on here think RU needs to raise ticket prices exponentially, honestly I don’t think it will work with basketball.So Rutgers used what was supposed to be our best team since “75/76” and raised the seat fee/surcharge enormously for this year do they have the audacity to charge the same amount next year and how many people won’t be willing to pay this after this sht show of a year?
Just wondering
Wanna bet ? Going out west to show that region what bad basketball looks like.You can stick a fork in this, because they are done. They are going nowhere!
Must have gotten the flu again. The kind Pike describes as a bad ‘strand’ LOLHarper and Bailey were a disaster tonight. Team is no better than last year. It was embarrassing the lack of effort
Lunch Pail guys and tough defenseMeh, they’ll be more than fine in the league. With the pace of the pro game, spreading of the floor, and NBA defense both guys will be in a position to show off their abilities.
Makes me wonder why we let Dylan stand there near the logo with the ball until there’s under 15 on the shot clock and don’t space the floor more. Pike only knows one way — take a bunch of under-the-radar lunch pail guys and motivate them to play tough defense & rebound. He’s lost with a team like this.
B) FalseA) he’s not holding anyone hostage.
B) he has proven to be a very good coach over the course of his career.
C) Rutgers owes him a lot of money
D) this season was a failed experiment. Given the chance to do it again everyone would still take Dylan and Ace.
E) NIL funds were not there for this year. Schiano didn’t have much either. Pike needs to embrace NIL (Like Greg did the past few
months) to get the right roster.
F) 2023-24 Pike got screwed with 2 starters leaving in May and the Mag Injury.
G) 2015-2018 he improved every year. 2019-2023 he built tournament quality teams. The past two seasons were unfortunate and a step backwards with departures and injuries. Progress isn’t linear.
He’s not leaving, unless he wants to.
Trump will make everything cheaper.

I agree with you, I happened to stumble on his highlights from the Vegas tourney on YouTube today. I forgot how explosive he was that week, driving to the hole and dunking on guys, SEC players no less. Now, we’re begging for him to drive to the hole or get into the paint. He is not the same player, not making excuses as every team has dealt with sickness and injuries, but the reality is that he is not the same player right now that he was during the Vegas tourney.For the last two games Harper had very quiet performances .He definitely doesn't have the quickness shown in games at Las Vegas.Fans are very disappointed in this seasons results.Just wait until next season when the team will be back to scoring 60-65 points a game.
I would take sandfort and nix over anyone on our roster.Brandon Knight is responsible for player rotations. He did a lousy job today. We also played without an urgency in the second half. Basically this team is more talented than Iowa but we were out coached and out hustled. Bad sign for the rest of the season.
I don't care about that. I've watched him play, and he check outs. He's good, way better than Jmike. Think you'll be surprisedHe's 6’2, 165 pounds and by all accounts cannot shoot. Look at these EYBL stats from last season (click on Dybantsa’s name and you can see all the Oakland Raiders’ box scores), he made one singular three the entire season. Just sounds like JMike.

Lathan was utterly exhausted after leaving his feet on the O-goaltend. First time jumping this year. Might also miss the next game due to the Herculean effort on that leap. Gave it his all and then some on that play.Amazing isn’t it.
Grant was playing well in first half in terms of being aggressive without scoring or the ball. Doesn’t get okay.
Lathan scores in the paint..plays against guys with 3 fouls each and we don’t even give him a look.
It’s bad coaching and if no one can see that go back and watch our inbounds plays
Correct. That’s nonsense.Sure but it’s not going to involve Pike voluntarily walking away from millions of dollars like this guy seems to think he should do for “honor” or something.
Nope, Pike was calling guys in and out I watched carefullyBrandon Knight is responsible for player rotations. He did a lousy job today. We also played without an urgency in the second half. Basically this team is more talented than Iowa but we were out coached and out hustled. Bad sign for the rest of the season.
Was just terrible. 40-20 Iowa run after we were up 53-44. That should never happen. Did anyone notice that we build the 9 point halftime lead with DH/AB on the bench?
They will find a way to get rid of pike imo unless the program shows some life next year. This is clearly not working and the home record is becoming an embarrassment
Could be true. But he has a lot of competition for the top prizeIt’s Bball IQ. These guys just don’t have it. The team captain Williams has the lowest.
