I’m not so sure about that. But I am concerned that the recruiting, in all forms, may be lazy, or unorganized, or without a real focus, or something. More than anything, personnel is killing us this year.Laziest offense I have ever seen . . .
I don’t buy tgatThe roster issue may be tied to the coaching issue. Maybe like C Viv, the style of play is just not attractive to high caliber talent any longer. Its destroyed the women's team. It could happen here too.
Not asking you to. Just need to look at the results.I don’t buy tgat
4 star Jaden Jones came hereNot asking you to. Just need to look at the results.
And how has that turned out so far. He most likely will be transferring also.4 star Jaden Jones came here
He committed in 2019. Since then haven't seen an uptick.4 star Jaden Jones came here
Wait till next yearI’m not so sure about that. But I am concerned that the recruiting, in all forms, may be lazy, or unorganized, or without a real focus, or something. More than anything, personnel is killing us this year.
If you can't recruit, you have nothing to coach!We have a roster issue and not a coaching issue.
Can you repeat to me what the argument was? This statement has zero relevance to the arguement.And how has that turned out so far. He most likely will be transferring also.
Going to be hard for Agee to be our power forward next year considering he is out of eligibility after this year.Guys, Reiber's our starting center next year when Cliff transfers. And Agee's our power forward when Pike can't recruit anyone else from the portal...ouch.
Oooops, you got me. So I guess Oskar has to step up.Going to be hard for Agee to be our power forward next year considering he is out of eligibility after this year.
Because you said so?!?!Can you repeat to me what the argument was? This statement has zero relevance to the arguement.
I have said the same and get continually attacked by Pike's mob on this boardI told everyone over and over again after losing Jacob and Myles in the preseason that this team is mentally weak, that our recruiting has been abysmal, that Pike has completely failed to bring relevant talent here for 2 years now.. and I got completely lambasted. The legions of low expectation-having RU fans came out of the woodwork: fat, dumb and happy that Rutgers has had some recent success, and not comprehending that we're likely headed for the abyss for at least 2 years, with Pike falling way behind the rest of the conference in selling RU as a destination to talented players.
This is rutgers . Our fanbase still talks poetically about losing the NIT. A gif on this board started a thread about making the NIT this year . I am thrilled if we can make the tournament every few years and make runs like you describePike gets huge credit for building the program. It’s now how does Hobbs and our fan base see our program. Many are apparently content to be good for 2-3 years, drop off for a few years to rebuild again, and try to be good for another 2-3 year spurt. Others believe that once it’s built a B1G school in the NJ/NYC area should be a perennial NCAA team thinking about making deep runs. Let’s remind ourselves — a small Catholic school within less than 2 hours from here has become a top 10 program and won national titles. Our fans need to think much bigger.
How about Indiana, a former blue blood who hasn't made the tournament in 5 years and held on to their former coach for several mediocre years?Pike gets huge credit for building the program.

Good call on the mentality weak piece.I told everyone over and over again after losing Jacob and Myles in the preseason that this team is mentally weak, that our recruiting has been abysmal, that Pike has completely failed to bring relevant talent here for 2 years now.. and I got completely lambasted. The legions of low expectation-having RU fans came out of the woodwork: fat, dumb and happy that Rutgers has had some recent success, and not comprehending that we're likely headed for the abyss for at least 2 years, with Pike falling way behind the rest of the conference in selling RU as a destination to talented players.

says who???Pikiell got Rutgers to the tournament doing it his way and has earned the chance to continue doing it his way for a few more seasons no matter how much you (or I) disagree with his recruiting, his scheduling, his substitution patterns.
says who???
Everyone who is at all reasonable on the topic.says who???
Look at all the people who liked this idiotic comment....😀😀😀😀😀.Writing is on the wall. There’s no talent in the program and he can’t recruit. We’ll be looking for a new coach in 2025. Mark my words.
Laziest offense I have ever seen, which makes sense when so much effort is put on defense. Our offense is pathetically lazy and all they do is pass around the perimeter and chuck up threes. If we're hot from behind the ark at home we have a shot. If we're not hot....fugggetttaboutit home or on the road with such a lazy no penetration chuck up threes offense. Frankly this offense is offensive. What stud offensive player in the portal wants to come and play for Pike?? Next year....holy guacamole... fugggetttaboutit. Enjoy last year's NCAA appearance, but as the old saying goes there's nothing quieter than yesterday's applause.
To be fair, we don’t know how this team looks next season.Look at all the people who liked this idiotic comment....😀😀😀😀😀.
Mark your words, lol
