TheKnightReport - Emotional ending caps sensational careers for Rutgers' seniors

My first year covering the team was in 2018. Since then, these guys and this team/program have been a pleasure to cover.

Is the journey really over? There are options available if details can be worked out

The journey is over in that the 3 culture changers won’t be on the floor together next year. There’s no official decision on what Caleb will or will not do but even if he did come back it would be a different adventure from the journey he’s been on with these guys and he obviously recognizes that.

We probably don’t hear anything for a while on him. Maybe not RHJ either. Does he really need to rush into hiring an agent? Not sure it matters for him.

It’s like 99.9% over at RU for RHJ and McConnell. Caleb even had a slip up in during the selection Sunday interview where he basically said it was their “last sea…our senior year.”

It seems like you reporters took it that way. Unless you have other inside info, we’ll see. I took it as realization of the end of an era regardless of what he does. Should Caleb return, it would be a very different experience with his Culture Changing Bros .

Also - I’d say that the longer that goes on where he (and to a lesser extent RHJ) do not declare they are hiring an agent and/or entering the portal, the probability of a return slowly increases. If you know for sure your going pro, hiring your own agent (not hand picked by the NCAAs) should be a quick, easy decision.

In our situation - similar with the portal. JY entered right away, for example.
