Hi all -

I'm moving to Manhattan next month as my company has switched from remote work back to in-person. I'm a season ticket holder for basketball, and I know this will make it challenging to attend games during the week (I'll be giving them to my sister). But for games during the weekend, what will be the best method to get to the RAC for when the season starts back up?

I figured I could take NY Penn to New Brunswick (via NJ Transit), but are there shuttles to the arena once I'm there? Do I have to Uber?

Thanks!

What's going on here?

I doubt we will be overly active in the portal but I'd be surprised if we don't take a few. FOGO and close defense seem like obvious areas of need.

Pretty awesome.

Thinking of hitting up the Friday night road game against the Huskies in Seattle and looking for recommendations on where to stay, game day and/or night before the game activities.

I tried to post on the UW board and apparently I don't have "sufficient privileges" to do so.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated. TIA

Hmm, On3 gets into the rankings.

This is not a call to fire Goodale post. However, If Jordan Burroughs was interested and available to Coach Rutgers, he would be an excellent choice to replace Goodale. JB is not only New Jersey wrestling royalty but worldwide wrestling royalty. Obviously, JB would be a boon to recruiting. Most current recruits grew up idolizing JB as he was winning gold medals. JB has credentials similar to the likes of Cael, John Smith, David Taylor and Zeke Jones. To be fair Goodale has grown into the job coming as a high school coach with zero college coaching experience.

One area that is not discussed but where Goodale is an abject failure is the recruiting of diverse athletes and coaches. JB would definitely help with the recruitment of diverse athletes. Besides Glasglow, the Van Brills and the current recruit Gibson no other diverse athletes come to mind.

Hint: There is a Rutgers connection.

First time I ever started a drought thread, lol. Some posts in other threads on this, but figured starting one might be interesting/useful for some (or not). Anyway, our dry weather in the Philly-NJ-NYC region continues with moderate to severe drought in much of the area (NWS graphic below) and it's going to get at least a bit worse with no measurable rain in sight for at least the next 10 days. Note that the Climate Prediction Center is forecasting "average" precip for our region in November and for the next 3 months, so hopefully the drought conditions will begin to ease.

Many locations in the region are nearing all-time records for consecutive days without measurable rain, including Philadelphia, which has gone 25 days without rain and will break its record of 29 consecutive days without rain if no measurable rain falls through October 28th (NWS graphic below).

While it's nice to have "nice" days (and tailgates/games), droughts can have significant impacts, as they obviously impact water availability, usage, and local flora/fauna, and greatly increase the risk of wildfires, especially on days of very low humidity with high winds. Speaking of which, we have a couple of those days coming up with red flag warnings up for much of NJ tomorrow. The NWS-Philly website and Facebook/Twitter pages are good places to keep tabs on such things.

It's been announced. Huge opportunity to bring in a certain someone who has been sitting in Ann Arbor the last few years. Scott Bieda would be an absolute home run.

There has been some debate on how good this class is, and it turns out there's an ironic measuring point.

If we get Amari Saab and Messiah Tilson, both of which we are in a good spot for, and noone else, we end up with 1605 points in the ranking, which is the EXACT same score as what we had in 2024. So if you liked our class two years ago, you should like this class.

Decided to make one thread, that @HeavenUniv. can post all the Rutgers deals on the web in that way more people can see all the deals and it's all in one place.
