Why are we still trying to figure things out 9 games into the season? That’s 100% on Pike
Basketball Defensive struggles doom Rutgers Basketball as it falls to Ohio State 80-66
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
Sorry to say this team gives up too many easy baskets! RU has reached it’s limit under Pike
Pike bought himself a year with the two studs. Next year shaping up to be a disaster.
Because the players refuse to commit to defense
There are no offensive plays. This is embarrassing for Pike, what do they do in practice just roll out a ball.
Goodness me, just switch to a 3-2 if we are this bad guarding the perimeter.
UGLY NEXT YEAR...LIKE HISTORICALLY BAD
We have no defense and if Dylan/Ace are not having a big game we dont have a third option. What a way to live.
I am fine finding a new coach. If pike can’t do it with two top 5 picks then when will he ever
The guy has no hands and lack athleticism but Pikiell playing him up as the next Patrick Ewing. All anyone needs to know about talent evaluation.
Pike needs about 4-6 more weeks practice with this team without games. They just don't understand how to play together.
We are now going to lose today
I’m jumping on the fire Pike bandwagon. I’ve never seen so many dumb substitutions and playcalling in my life. This has been the story of his coaching career here and he is blowing it.
As the leader of the team you need to hold people accountable and that’s just not happening.
This is a disaster

I’m sorry but this is a poorly coached basketball team.
This team is just not good, which is so disappointing. Being a Rutgers fan is just torturous.
When Zach Martini is your captain you’re going to have issues
Pike has got to go. We are not going to next level under his watch
Personnel. We’d have to give J Mike extended burn. And we can’t afford to have Dylan use up all his energy on that side of the floor
Pike has to go.
He doesn’t know how to handle the portal. Truly abysmal
He doesn’t know how to handle the portal. Truly abysmal
Team only has 2 guys who can score but they are bad on D turnovers and rebounding. Honestly right now this team will be fortunate to be .500
Pike doing everything he can to keep Flagg the number 1 pick
the team is horrific. The defense is horrific. The coaching is absolutely abominable - like the worst coaching job ever by pike. He’s reached his limits on what he can do here.
Why don’t we run plays for open looks? Or atleast easy looks! This running some fake action to just end up going 1 on 1 off the dribble isn’t gonna work
