Basketball Defensive struggles doom Rutgers Basketball as it falls to Ohio State 80-66

Martini - bench limited minutes
Jmike - bench should be DNP
Grant - he looks lost so often but needs some minutes to get in game flow. Needs coaching

This team lacks fundamentals on both sides of the ball. Mostly around rebounding.

Also say this lacks any discipline.

This all screams coaching
 
If tired of this game, super rivalry game on CBSSN, channel 215 on my Optimum.

Rhode Island 48 Providence 48
 
Difference in this game is they play great help defense, we play no help defense.

They collapse on all of our ball handlers, and as soon as it goes in the paint. We do neither.
 
every time Somerville does something like that he should be benched immediately. Until he is a willing passer he should be stapled to the bench
 
Offense this half has consisted of 4 guys standing motionless around perimeter watching the ball handler. Zero movement, no ball screens. This is is playground ball
That’s an insult to the “first court” players lol
 
Honestly, our D hasn't been good but has been far from awful. The killer is we have played great D for 30 seconds numerous times but gave up baskets on offensive rebounds.
Agree. Defensive rebounding is horrible. Our defense overall isn’t good enough to play more than one shot on a possession

We are so disjointed on both ends of the court.

Feels like we are laboring every single possession on offense and defense.
When I see that, makes me think this is a bad matchup for us. Could also be our relative youth versus the other guys.
 
Why is Durkack shooting the ball. Bailey and Harper need to shoot.
 
Harper is crushing any comeback. OSU butts tightening and nothing.
 
Too many players feel they have to shoot when they get it because their touches are so limited. Have to play within the offense.
