It looks as if the 4 game win streak with the return of Jeremiah Williams, like a stock, was a dead cat bounce for RU. It seemed like they were ascending but it was fools gold as they’re back to the downward trend pre-Jeremiah. 📉 It’s unfortunate, but here we are back to the same place with poor all around play, poor shooting (threes, FTs, you name it), poor box outs, and even the defense is dropping off. At this point, NIT doesn’t feel like it will happen. OSU, the last home game opponent who just canned their coach, is playing significantly better than RU right now with recent wins over Purdue and MSU on the road. We’ll see how this team finishes, but it feels like they’re right back where they were after the 46 point game against PSU sitting at 10-10 with yesterday’s 46 point game. The more things change the more they stay the same, as they say. Pike has a lot of work ahead to gain back some positive momentum over the last 4 games and Big Ten tourney.
