Brad Wachtel: “Rutgers season is officially on life support”
- Thread starter KK1827
- Start date
Were not remotely close to even the NIT bubble unfortunately
I think you mean CBI bubble.
Good thing we have such a great relationship with the Gazelle group, who runs the CBI!
Those Princeton games organized in Trenton and Newark will really pay off now!!!
Ace and Dylan took a chance on us. It was a huge gamble. They could have went the safe route to a Duke or Kansas. But they came to RU and this program and coaching staff have completely let them down thus far.
Sad.
Sad.
Ace let himself down tonight.
They deserve better sadly but they are both putting up massive individual stats that will get them drafted top 5 minimum
I mean he's right. If Ace had an ok game we would have won
If they could transfer, they probably would, after this fiasco so far. Neither of them probably ever imagined that they would never play in the NCAA tournament, thanks to Pikiell. An absolute disgrace.
This team is awful. No defense, no fundamentals, no heart. Pike shouldn't be back next season.
They showed some heart tonightThis team is awful. No defense, no fundamentals, no heart. Pike shouldn't be back next season.
Absolutely. The second half comeback was great. I have zero complaints about effort or heart.
The way this team was constructed and is being coached is absolutely disgraceful. I blame Pikiell, but I also blame Hobbs who didn’t do what needed to be done from an NIL perspective for this generational opportunity. This was probably the one time where the big donors and small donors could’ve come together and done something special if a focused NIL drive was organized properly.
Same old Rutgers, Schiano is the only competent senior manager in the organization.

It’s this simple. In-game coaching aside, the right collection of guys on the cheap was there to be had
This is where I feel really bad for them. These 2 kids came here wanting to truly make a difference, do something different, leave an albeit short but sweet legacy. Instead theyll remember this year as just a year they were forced to partake in prior to the nba
I'm sure they'll be weeping all the way to the bank.
I’m quite confident that they’ll never set foot on campus ever again when they are done.
Some, I will give you that, but not nearly enough and it’s still another loss. Moral victories are not victories.
Welcome to the party Brad - tell us something we haven't known for the past several weeks.
You mean they won’t finish their classes?
I sense a stepping away from college athletics coming tbh.
Pikiell is definitely aging and has a real tough time walking it seems like (maybe knee replacements are needed?).
Either way this wouldn’t shock me.
He’s a family man and an old school type coach who loves defense first. I’m sure he hates what college athletics has turned into deep down.
Going to find out what pike is made of ….he needs to change who plays based on tonight and production . other than getting Dylan healthy , the next most important thing is getting this rotation to 8 guys and who the 8 best are ….
it requires that martini , Ogoble and hayes sit and we okay smaller ball to defend and rebound better ……
