Basketball INSTANT REACTION: Rutgers Basketball falls to No. 14 Illinois 86-63

[kupuna133]

Down 20 they aint writing this one

No but they were a much bigger part during the runs than they needed to be. Each time Rutgers was getting close. Odd calls or no calls (3 travels missed in first half) goal tending reversal etc….

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

Agree. Our only two NCAA appearances were doing weird Covid times. One was a play in where we couldn't execute a single inbound play. Last year we should have made the NCAA if we could finish. We could not and then got abused in the NIT. Not having high expectations for next year despite the talent because it won't be developed before they leave for greener NBA pastures.

YES Fools gold

Harry Potter!!!! Lol

I thought wheres Waldo better analogy.

A Williams needs to come to 2nd grade basketball next Saturday.

Use left hand for a layup on left side

The whole team could benefit from that. They may get some offense coaching.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Palmquist. Lol

Please portal Simpson

No, that's just dumb. Were you saying that after last game?

 

[BillyC80]

Underwood looking to pad the lead for NET purposes.

 

[RUBlackout]

This team is so hard to watch!!

 

[Scangg]

Oskar doesn't need these minutes. Chol does

 

[NickRU714]

Of course one of the two seniors on the court gives up a turnover.

No, that's just dumb. Were you saying that after last game?

No consistency

 

[bitnez]

Enough with Gavin. His press clippings in high school do not earn him time now. He’s been terrible and has not earned minutes. Why doesn’t Pike give any minutes to Choi?

I agree — let’s keep playing the other guys and losing every road game by 20. Haha

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

They gonna hang 100

 

[Captain Hogleg]

If Pike doesn’t step up next year and protect Ace and Dylan from the refs and allows them to get get bullied by other teams like he has allowed with Cliff, then he needs to go immediately.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

Lazy ass focus and play most of game.

 

[RuBird]

We showed Mrs. Wilcher. Don’t need her screaming to miss FTs

 

[RAC93]

JMike trying to dunk, stop it

 

[NickRU714]

Gavin one on one with Shannon and forces an airball.

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

Standing O for Shannon

JMike trying to dunk, stop it

If he tries to lay that up Shannon sends it into the 30th row.

[biazza38]

I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this Shannon situation
Btw, Illinois REALLY ran it up. We took our starters out and Illinois didn’t

Pike got his once every decade T last week. He's good till 2030.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Cholololol

 

[OldManRiver]

We now know why Chol sits...terrible shot and just as equal defense on the other end

 

[ClassOf02]

Was that Chol with the airball 3?

 

[RUBlackout]

At least Chol has nice sneakers

I hope this whole team leaves next year. Pike better start his new 5 and that’s that

 

[Scangg]

JMike trying to dunk, stop it

Lol what? Players dunk on breakaways. He drew a foul and made both

Gavin nice D rebounding and lead pass on it too

 

[NickRU714]

The whole team could benefit from that. They may get some offense coaching.

When a shot goes up, how many rebound?
"Ten!!"

It might not hurt to get back to basics.

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

Wholesale cleaning this off season

 

[cm_13]

Im not sold on this

I think Pike may have lucked out the last few years. And to think each year we were bubble

Absolute dogshit take.

 

[BOCA93]

I’ve never seen someone charged with rape get more nonstop positive coverage than Shannon did today. It’s like Hummel is his PR guy

 

[OldManRiver]

Was that Chol with the airball 3?

2 of them

 

[RUby RED]

Yeah Chol can’t be around next year

 

[RUDeac]

wtf chol. Let GG shoot.

 

[RUBlackout]

If I didn’t know any better I would think Gavin is a walk on if I were an opposing fan

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

Gonna be worse next week

 

[runner3283]

Doesn’t look like GG can create his own shot

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Oh well, nice run, but they're just better and getting the whistle.

Yup, without the crap refs it's a loss by about a dozen, like Vegas thought.
