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

[rucoe89]

Wholesale cleaning this off season

Maybe even some of the coaches. This team is not showing game to game improvement.

 

[MGSA99]

Checking in on the gane thread. And checking out. As with the rest of us, we still cheer for the few games we may still win, but we have all already turned the page to next year.

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Just tagged you in a thread @AreYouNUTS started a couple weeks ago. It's all of us on Xfinity it seems.

Yup… it’s a pain in the ass. Especially when you’re on chats with people who are 5-seconds ahead of you.

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

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

He'll be a walk off if he doesn't get minutes

 

[ClassOf02]

Remember all the preseason talk about how much Chol improved and the impact he was going to have this year?

 

[RUDeac]

Humiliated

 

[OldManRiver]

wtf chol. Let GG shoot.

he doesn't want to

 

[Mr Magoo]

Shitshow

 

[FmrMgrRU]

Illinois fans really gave a standing ovation to a player accused of rape that is only playing because of a temporary restraining order and has made no public statement, meaning he hasn’t denied it. Disgusting display by that trash school.

 

[rucoe89]

The Illinois 3rd string is better than our 2nd stringers

 

[RutgersChow]

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.

Agree, but we'll have enough talent next year that most high school would be good with that team.

 

[RUBlackout]

Absolute dogshit take.

I guess we shall see over the next two years

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Illinois is a Final Four-type team with Shannon

 

[BillyC80]

Standing O for Shannon

Wonder what they’ll say if he’s eventually found guilty. At least they got a few more wins?

 

[RUblackshirt2006]

Illinois is good, but you gotta get a fair game, we had a shot but refs took the shot away not the players

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

Humiliated

Plus 1

 

[FIJI'83]

Embarrassing.

Not everyone. Palmquist is still getting a lot of minutes.

 

[bitnez]

he doesn't want to

He knows if he misses Pike will pull him.

Haaaa fool no

 

[rucoe89]

Shitshow

Pretty much every other game. We should extend Pikiell 5 more years. 🙄

 

[RutgersChow]

Why does that surprise you? Up until next year Pike's been an awfull recruiter.

 

[rucoe89]

Agree, but we'll have enough talent next year that most high school would be good with that team.

So maybe we should schedule Don Bosco, Rutgers Prep, St. Josephs etc. We'll be able to match their level of play.

 

[RAC93]

Embarrassed

 

[Mr Magoo]

Can’t blame him…but wow was he mis-rated. No wonder he fell to us.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Don’t let Pike hear that or he’ll do it.

 

[RUJMM78]

Underwood looking to pad the lead for NET purposes.

Illinois scored at least 80 points in both Rutgers games.

Huh? What does public statement have to do with anything?
It's been clearly denied in the court documents released.

 

[Jerseylegends]

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

Gavin nice D rebounding and lead pass on it too

There's a couple of guys I believe are Simpson fans or family members that constantly try to downplay jmikes abilities and talk up everything Simpson does well. Lol it's funny to see

 

[RutgersChow]

Oskar doesn't need these minutes. Chol does

He hardly sees the floor and Oskar is like the 7-8 man. He must be really bad.

 

[FmrMgrRU]

ok Nick. I guess having to read court documents is the same as a public statement.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Very good team.

 

[biazza38]

We’re a top 10 defense though

 

[NickRU714]

You said it hasn't been denied. Clarifying that it has.
There's a whole thread about it.

Just providing additional information.

 

[essexknight]

They will find a judge who will take the case immediately and say that he can still play.

 

[rucoe89]

His play against Illinois scrubs answers that .....

 

[RUblackshirt2006]

Would you be willing to share a picture of yourself sweat pea? Just so in case we should i attend a game and its not all this on the board stuff?

 

[rucoe89]

Very good team.

Illinois is a Final Four-type team with Shannon

Probably true. Just as true, we are the basement team of the Big Ten and makes Illinois look real good.

 

[G- RUnit]

Mag was just not good today.
Fernandes was pretty darn good.
I know a lot of you love JMike but another game where he played extensive minutes, 26, and no assists. Sloppy with ball

 

[NickRU714]

Watching this OSU-Wisconsin wrestling match on BTN.
Is this mat crazy big or is it me?
