Basketball Freshmen struggle as Rutgers falls to Wisconsin for first home loss

It’s just not fair that one team can have so many guys that can shoot. We’re actually playing decent defense the last several minutes, but it doesn’t matter because Wisky is just unconscious from the field.
 
Yup! And as me and my friend are talking about finally getting momentum with him scoring…what happens??
Pike subs him
Coach has zero feel for ANY game with subs and just times things. God awful
It's unbelievable how he never rides the hot hand until it goes cold. He puts a damper on his hot commodities using his stop watch technique of subbing.
 
Well, no Ace a lot of that half… Pikecsending message? Why?

Hey at least Grant did well maybe he will take Martinis minutes.

The rotation is so strange!

Lots of Wisky fans here.
 
I have no idea how to feel right now. I'm frustrated as hell, but we're also only down 9 despite Harper looking like the walking dead, Ace in foul trouble, and Wisconsin making every shot imaginable.

IDK
 
11 of the last 12 shots including five straight threes. The funny thing is that during that stretch, RU was actually playing much better defense than they had in the beginning. This game is far from over.

Wisc moves the ball really well on O. Always getting open looks or easy layups. They closed the half making 11/12. Need some stops to start the half.

Thats why you dont give them a 12-15 point cushion to start the game

Not the way to beat a good shooting team..we are the friggin home team
 
And his coaching is basically to continuously clap and yell lets go.
We no longer need a cheerleader. We need the kind of coach that can motivate these kids because he put this mess together, and we as fans are suffering.
 
He just made a 3 the shot prior. Played good defense but the guy made a miracle.
3 jumpers in a row in JMikes face! Once again just because JMike looks active and hustle doesn’t mean he’s playing food defense. He one just one defensive stop! He has jumpers being shot in his face all night. Why because he’s too small to play at this level.
 
What the hell is the point of sitting Grant all season?

There are no redshirts anymore. Kids will leave if they don't play. They will leave if they're all-conference. If he's better than what we have at the 4/5, you play him.

Ace had two fouls. There was no message sending.

Will Rutgers continue to hit at their level of 9-13 to close the half
 
I would even give Dortch some minutes for his defense
I was just gonna say, we are seeing what Grant can do, is it possible that Dortch can also offer more than what we’ve seen from Martini and Hayes? If we just played Grant and Dortch all of the minutes that Martini and Hayes played in previous games we are likely in exact same place and likely better off.

Pike acts like because he paid Martini and Hayes; he's obligated to play them. Total BS. Grant needs to play a lot more.
