    Unprecedented pressure next year? What are the expectations?

    Will not be a final four team, but will probably make the tourney. Other teams also have highly rated players, and these are freshmen playing against stronger, more experienced guys. Expectations need to be realistic, imo.

    It's going to be a long season...

    Take a deep breath. Hyatt is playing well, Simpson is coming along, Cliff was great in the 2nd half, Gavin will be solid. Rebounding and defense were good also. Gotta work on turnovers and FTs. At least wait until a couple of B10 games before you write the team off. It's only 3 games and 2-1...

    Basketball Rutgers Basketball defeats Bryant

    Good defense so far. Playing up on the 3pt shooters and good help D. On offense, starting to focus on going inside first. Need to hit some FTs obviously.

    Starting 5 vs BU ?

    Cliff, Wolf, Oscar, Noah, and Williams. Reward the guys who played well last game. Force Noah to be a leader, and Cliff to be the scoring focus. Lessen the pressure on the inexperienced guys and have them and Hyatt get a feel for the game and then put them in.

    The early season “elephant in the room” observation …..

    The "elephant in the room" to me is that BU at home on Friday is pretty much a must win if we are going to make the NCAA. Seems insane, but after the poor losses last season, we can't afford to repeat that. There are six teams that RU absolutely must beat and BU is the first. So, these are must...

    Overreaction Thread

    This seems like the appropriate thread to add my two cents. As poorly as the team played, it was just a 4 point game with three minutes left in the second half. The team played like deer in the headlights, but, as they say, there's no where to go but up. Pike will need to find the six or seven...

    THE OFFICIAL 2023-2024 RUTGERS BASKETBALL PREDICTION THREAD

    Where's the scoring coming from? Where's the rebounding, other than Cliff? Mag is good, but other B10 forwards are too. Hyatt may not have improved that much. Small backcourt. I'll say 18-13 and an NIT. Hope I'm wrong and Gavin leads the way to a better record.

    OT: What's worse: Fansville or Limu Emu and Doug?

    Need to make the Buffalo Wild Wings buffalo extinct. Whoever thought up that idea must have been on drugs.

    Picked for 10th in the Big.

    Too many question marks to be rated any higher. I even saw one prediction having RU at 13th. Can we play B10 defense? Can we rebound? Have Hyatt and Simpson improved enough? When will Mag be full go? And so on.

    Gavin has moments, but is not improving accuracy

    Walk the plank, Gavin! Even though we were 4-1 going against a 14pt favorite on the road and only lost by 11, let's get rid of you. We just can't win with you! Even though you've made some great throws, you're not as accurate as we "experts" think you should be. You guys are freakin jokes.

    Top Freshman in B10 - Gavin @ #6

    He seems like a small forward to me. If he is a sg, is he quick enough to defend the opposing guard? Nobody's talking about his ability to defend.

    OT: Cam Spencer UCONN practice video? Re: The Sleepers…

    Paul was a good player. He was a significant part of the team's success. Honorable mention B10 as well.

    Rutgers vs. Senegal Select

    I always read and appreciate your posts because I think you actually know what you're talking about. But in this case, I'm not nearly as confident as you are in the potential of our guard play. They are small and inexperienced at B10 level of play. They could be liabilities on defense and even...

    Rutgers vs. Senegal Select

    It wouldn't shock me if Hyatt turns into our number two or three scorer this season. He has the size, strength, and shot making ability. He can be an important part of the strength of the team, the frontcourt. I'm not very confident in our backcourt situation as I don't see them on par with most...

    Carino article on Senegal/Portugal trip

    Wrong. There's no equivalency between that traitorous POS and anyone else. His lies are trying to dismantle our country. So don't be naive and try to pay attention.

    OT: RIP: PEE WEE HERMAN (PAUL REUBENS)
