Some really good signs in tonight’s game.

 

[Pancho1939]

Do you realize what just happened? We just beat a big 10 team with the #4 scorer in big 10, our starting center, young not at full strength and hobbling around. What a huge win. Biggest win all year. Got contributions from everyone. Everyone who played did what they had to do. Especially Douc!!! Great F-ing win. Showing some guts tonight especially after last week!!!!

[zappaa]

Myles worst defensive game in two years, no Jr and we still won

 

[tfio]

PURDUE IS OUR BITCH

 

[RU Mike73]

B1G win without RHJ and Cliff. When we get all healthy we are going to be good.

And with Geo not yet 100%.

 

[RUinPinehurst]

RU is a BASKETBALL SCHOOL!

 

[ru66]

great win

 

[Scarlet Knut]

I had to stop posting in the second half because I got tires of all you saying we don't have a coach. Dumb!

 

[bitnez]

We’re good. We’re damn good.

 

[NickKnight 1]

whew

wow, OK I can go pee now.

 

[bethlehemfan]

How about the freshmen???

 

[PatrickRU92]

oh thank the gods

 

[RuBird]

81% from the line!

 

[carmenst]

That was a huge win !
Happy for the team
And I’m still pissed off about the Ohio State game.

 

[Scarlet Knut]

wow, OK I can go pee now.

I just did!

 

[phlop87]

Great team win ... Montez stepped up forced a few shots but overall great game. If he brings that game every night that’s a great weapon

 

[letitrip2]

Guts!!!

That word sums up that game perfectly. Great win.

 

[BOCA93]

Myles worst defensive game in two years, no Jr and we still won

In Myles defense, Williams is really good. Seems like he’s been in college for like 7 yrs

 

[GSGS]

Pike used the bench very effectively, did a MUCH better job with substitutions and personnel usage than the tOSU game. Made great use of Duke, Reiber, and Palmquist, especially in the first half. Maybe Palmquist's make of a 3 will get him going.

 

[richthedentist]

Myles worst defensive game in two years, no Jr and we still won

The refs are in his head he is afraid to play for fear of getting a foul called against him

 

[80RU]

That could have been Purdue ball. Got away with the over and back.

I disagree, with all due respect to you and Bardo, both feet AND The ball need to be established in the front court. Both feet were, but the ball was not.

 

[rtabachk]

Reiber was plus 14.....butterfingers Reiber.

Palmquist plus 6, Doucoure plus 5, Baker plus 4. Everyone else 1, 0 or negative.

 

[richthedentist]

How about the freshmen???

Great job by t hem and great use of them by Pikell tonight

 

[ScottRU93]

Rutgers doing non-Rutgers things. 52% from 3 and 81% from the charity stripe. That’s the story right there. And Mathis playing the game of his life.

 

[GSGS]

I just did!

TMI 😃

 

[Scarlet Knut]

TMI 😃

Hey at least I went to the bathroom. :)

 

[MV9000]

Reiber with the best +\- on the night WILD. Didn’t love the defense but we gutted that out big time even with them being in the bonus with 10 to go. Huge win with a hobbled team. JY grimacing a lot of the game and our starting center and leading scorer out. BEND DONT BREAK

 

[phlop87]

Great win and the freshmen got some quality minutes that will help down the road.
