OT: NJ Golf season

When I lived in Mercer county, I always thought the price of playing as a resident was good at the Mercer Oakes courses in West Windsor and they're usually kept up pretty well. Haven't played them in over a decade though.

I also grew up playing the Mercer courses especially both Oaks courses. I haven't played them in ages until this past summer I played Mercer Oaks East....it was approaching dog track territory.

Really poor conditions. I get it was a hard summer with the lack of rain but they appeared to only be cutting once a week. The greens were practically fairways. Terrible bunkers. Weeds all over the fairways. As someone who has a lot of nostalgia for that course having been a young lad playing it growing up, it was sad to see.

I have a hot take that you'll hate, Ace may be our best defensive player.
explain.....I will be honest...I can't give you a better answer.

When he is engaged he can make defensive plays and get 10 1/2 foot high rebounds.

I have a tougher time watching games on TV, but I think he made a big defensive play down the stretch last night from a help position.

Dylan Harper (34 points), Rutgers best Washington in OT



Time to face reality

i was extremely pleased with our victory over the Huskies last night. I have been hoping that we could go on a run in the BTT. But if we could play our best game in a couple weeks and only eke out a victory over a mediocre Huskies team, I can't see how we can make a run. Our offense looked better than recent weeks and Harper and Bailey combined for 52 points. If that isn't a formula for a double digit win, what is? Unfortunately, we have zero interior defense and almost no 3 point defense. In past seasons, if we put up 81 points, we would win by 10-15 points. Unless we develop a better defense overnight, I'm afraid we will be one and done in the Tournament. I will still be watching and rooting for our team until the end, but I fear it's time for me to face reality.

If the game was offensive ONLY I could agree with this.
Defense is 50% of the game and they are liabilities there.

Supporting cast did fine last night. Ace and Dylan played great offensively and we still needed OT to beat a bad Washington team.

People are overestimating what type of college basketball players Ace and Dylan are.
I have a hot take that you'll hate, Ace may be our best defensive player.
