Five “21’s” and one 22. Very nice. I think it will be much nicer once we get a few 20’s in there!
This is the time of year that Rising juniors receive offers. June 15 was the first day that college coaches could even call or text those kids. Plus, Rutgers has made an extensive number of offers to kids in the 2020 class
And some really special 2020 kids that, if they come, could domino effect 2021 and 2022 “special kids”. I’m very excited for our future!
Totally love the roster already and hopefully they bond in Spain and have a great season.
You should be excited about RU basketball's future. Coach has done some very heavy lifting to move the program forward.

Considering? Sure. I was asked if I saw "Rutgers signing any top 150 2020 recruits."
I don't see Cliff Omoruyi signing with Rutgers. I might be proven wrong. It wouldn't be the first time.
Darn. No one else, Russ? I will take the over! And I know nothing, but I believe that Pike and the coaches will use our upward trajectory to recruit and close.
Why is a name where barely have heard about (Springs) the one you feel Rutgers will sign? Interesting analysis.
RU wins 20 finishes better than .500 in the B1G and goes to the NIT or Big Dance we will kill it from 2021 on. This is literally a program ready to soar.
You barely have heard about Richard Springs because he doesn't do many interviews. Back in May I texted him about an interview and he replied "Sorry I'm not supposed to talk about my recruitment."
Which was actually a pretty impressive reply. Most kids just wouldn't have responded at all lol.
From what I have been able to piece together Springs is feeling RU.
I really think that barring a significant injury, we have a very good chance to be in the top half of B1G and go dancing. That’s what I think this team can do in 2019-20.
Russ, do most kids get insulted when a school has put out a ton of offers ? Does it make them feel like they aren’t “the guy” for Coach Jones/Smith/Brown or do they view it as a school is working really hard at recruiting in general?
UCONN seems like the leader here. With 14 offers, not sure I like our odds for Springs but I think there are more likely candidates from the list.
I asked someone if they felt Connecticut leads for Springs and they replied:
Don't think they're really pursuing
You're welcome.
It's just one person and, who knows, the "Connecticut leads" narrative may have been true at one point. I'm not even discounting that as a possibility, it is just not what some of us are hearing at this point in time.
if the player is quiet and not into interviews, how do we know who leads and when he plans to start taking official visits to the schools he likes??
Talking to a prospect is not the only way to get information on their recruitment.
As much progress as we have made we are still Rutgers and we will get what we get with the hopes that we truly become sports media buzz worthy. Then those top names may come.
Fair enough and fine....it is somewhat out of the norm in recent years with Social media and kids asking for edits and followers to have a kid outside of that realm. In some ways, it's refreshing to see the player just grinding/working and staying out of the spotlight.
Value is sometimes established with fanbases based on how long has the player been in the recruiting process and newscycle. If Springs likes RU, that's more than enough for me, we can wait out the process or information when it's ready.
The PSA Cardinals just stormed back from a 19-point deficit to get within 10, 43-34. Hassan Diarra is having a huge game on both ends but Richie Springs really stealing the show. Very quick second jump, great offensive rebounder and getting it done on the defensive end.

Shhh, keep that on the low.
That number is supposed to be a secret. I don't want Jim Boeheim to think I'm giving that number to everyone.

For those teams that consistently make the DANCE your right. For a team like RU where we haven’t danced or even took dancing lessons( NIT and other minor tournaments). If RU falls a little short of the dance The NIT this year would be A great step up and many on this board would be extremely happy
The NIT is essentially for teams on the bubble and would be a good and logical 1st step for a roster's core which is underclassmen.
