I could see the arguement where we wouldn’t want a Jacob Young on offense on our team.
jacob’s value is what he brings to the team defensively.
Minnesota, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan State all have more individual talent than RU put on the floor this season. It is not to say it was a large margin or difference but coaching/system and matchups are what usually are small separate items per team....
Indiana lost 3 times to Rutgers.
Indiana beat Iowa twice....
Iowa beat Michigan State twice....
RU beat Minnesota twice....
RU and MSU split 2 meetings.
Maryland beat Minnesota twice....
Maryland beat Michigan State twice.
Minnesota defeated Michigan Iowa and Ohio State (RU, Maryland, Indiana and Michigan State did not do much against those 3 teams).
All of these criss cross matchups are either drastically different matchups or huge coaching discrepancies. It is not a much coaching as it is how your best players style of play, impacts your team over an extended period of time. If your best player is a guard and is dominating the ball and taking the most shots, you have very little chance of winning against similar competition or better teams.
Young's ability to get easy buckets and create for himself and others penatrating was huge for us offensively. We looked our best when Young was cooking. His defense is phenomenal but offensively he was especially important on a team like Rutgers that lacked people who could create off the dribble and get their own shot or get to the rim and finishIf you could theoretically take off Young so he never plays an offensive possession and substitute any other Rutgers guard for his minutes maybe we win 2 games if we’re lucky the offense would be atrocious beyond belief.
