Basketball INSTANT REACTION: Rutgers Basketball falls to Minnesota 81-70

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Garcia pushed-off on Woolf for the putback wake up refs

 

[ClassOf02]

Why not O instead of Wolf (who has been terrible)? And why is Cliff sitting so long when he's been our best player?

I *think* Pike believes the pace of this game is too fast for Ogbole and better suited to Wolf as the back up 5. But I also think at this point, Pike needs to realize Wolf is lost out there.

 

[SBP]

WHY F👊🏻CK IS WOLF PLAYING SO MUCH HES USELESS!! IDONT GET IT!

 

[RW90]

Criminal by Pike

He blew it

Window was slightly open now its shut

Odd substitutions story of the game again.

 

[seansherm]

Wolf doesn’t play for 4 games straight and now he’s playing main backup mins??

Whys that a surprise? EO hadn't played at all and suddenly got all the minutes.

 

[Scangg]

The next time he dishes will be his first time. It never happens

Lol wtf are you talking about?!?

 

[80RU]

Garcia shoved wolf under the basket to get that offensive rebound. That gray haired official missed it again.

 

[RAC93]

Wolf is just unplayable

I thought Ogbole was unplayable, but looks like he’s more playable than Wolf

 

[ScarletLongIsland]

Team totally unprepared this half. Pike outcoached here. Wolf getting abused out there

 

[BOCA93]

Is Ogbole dinged up? Why isn’t he in when Cliff sits? Wolf gets abused by Payne.

 

[Degaz-RU]

Yeah Woolf is a terrible rebounder

 

[RUeric]

Just think, if Minny could shoot FT's we'd be down 20. Just an awful all around effort from the entire team, except Cliff's offense.

 

[bitnez]

Playing Wolf this much makes no sense

 

[RU848789]

Annoying the announcers can't get Wolf's name right - keep calling him Woolfork, not Woolfolk.

 

[greenknight]

Minny D is playing perimeter fast and tight need to do more cutting to basket w/o the ball.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Cliff has looked good on offense, but on defense Payne is kicking his a&s.

Cliff gets pushed around by many wider big men.

 

[koleszar]

Must say the substitutions are mind boggling. I don't get it, can anyone explain them to me?

 

[rucoe89]

Why not O instead of Wolf (who has been terrible)? And why is Cliff sitting so long when he's been our best player?

Cliff is lumbering today. Generally low energy level from what he can do.

 

[shields]

Davis is not a good shooter, look at the foul shots.

 

[FmrMgrRU]

Wow cam screwing us with his D against Minnesota last year and in the offseason! Great kid!

 

[mikeyo]

WHY F👊🏻CK IS WOLF PLAYING SO MUCH HES USELESS!! IDONT GET IT!

We have no depth

 

[G- RUnit]

Lol wtf are you talking about?!?

When is the last time he had an assist
Dishing??

WtF are you talking about.

He plays good D.

Missed bunny by Davis

 

[FIJI'83]

Yanking Ogbole after one sequence is maddening to me. He got in before Wolf and was clearly the first option to spell Cliff in the gameplan

Could have used Ogbole’s big body tonight. The only thing Wooden about Pike tonight was his coaching … brain lock

 

[FinalFourOrBust]

Pike embarrassed himself today. Kenpom is probably laughing his ass off.

 

[RutgersChow]

Their length is a problem.

Hey, maybe we win, but the truth is Johnson has recruited better shooters and he gets them better shots, and from an offensive standpoint he's a much better coach.

 

[fatsam98]

Lol Hyatt

 

[RUJMM78]

What fans are seeing is the type of offense prior to J Williams started to play.In this game his performance is equally bad.

 

[rucoe89]

Minnesota is becoming our nemesis as to preventing us an NCAA. They are playing much better than us today.

 

[RUDeac]

Thank god Hyatt is gone next year

 

[greenknight]

JD use the rim bro under basket layup

 

[newell138]

Did we need to be reminded of last years debacle?

 

[socaldave]

Hyatt is horrible

 

[RU Mike73]

Make a fvcking layup.

 

[greenknight]

Out of control at basket YET AGAIN

 

[FIJI'83]

No one can embarrass like Hyatt. Nobody. Not remotely

 

[tm_nj]

Hyatt is back to his old drive self

 

[RUIvyKnight20]

Austin Williams w an appearance

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Horrid game on all counts. Only bright spot was Cliff, who sat too long for unknown reasons.

 

[RU848789]

We have them in the bonus - we should be attacking the rim more...

 

[RUinOhio]

dear Cliff box out
