Official RU vs. Pitt Game Thread

[ScarletKid2008]

Refs are literally giving Pitt the game the best they can

 

[bac2therac]

dammmit Pike needed a timeout there...it was 8-0 run and he let them turn it over again...terrible right there

 

[Scarlet Knut]

Pitt 43-39

Thanks

 

[RUChoppin]

Refs stop the run, McConnell goes out, and all of a sudden we're disjointed again. Need McConnell on the floor.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Ref screw job here but need to buck up.

 

[Joey Bags]

This entire f****** run was engineered by officiating

 

[RU Mike73]

WTF Geo. Wake up. Unnecessary 3 followed by weak TO.

 

[TheKidFromRahway]

Turn out the lights

 

[MV9000]

These refs are a absolute joke.

 

[BillyC80]

We had it tied and all of a sudden falling apart again with turnovers and Pitt making shots, putting us down by 9. Very frustrating game to watch. Only a victory will make the frustration go away.

7-0 pitt since jacob young came in. Idk what it is but our team looks like shit pretty consistently with young in there

 

[bac2therac]

11-0 run sigh

 

[RUJMM78]

Fans get their hopes up and then the turnovers allow Pitt to spurt to a 48-39 lead.

Keep the starting 5 on the floor the rest of the game. We started both halves great, then we sub and the wheels come off

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

9-0 pitt since young entered the game. Its too predictable

 

[ColonelRutgers]

We're just a bad basketball team. What are we good at?

 

[bac2therac]

Young and Mulchay should never be on the court at the same time

wheels coming off

 

[sct1111]

Why isn't Yeboah playing more?

 

[DHajekRC84]

Baker is so freakin weak

He needs to take it to the rim
...step the frack up!

This. Pike is way too dead set on rotations. Sure you gotta give some guys blows but god damn stop playing so many guys

 

[RU Mike73]

Just like that from 2 up to 11 down. Unreal.

 

[ScarletteK80]

Sigh, just sigh.

 

[RutHut]

Young sucks. How do you miss wide open Caleb in the corner?

 

[Eagleton96]

He’s terrible in the half court

 

[Mr Magoo]

They built him up and now they have to play him.

 

[B0ski]

Turnovers

 

[bac2therac]

just because we have some depth doesnt mean that you have to pull the lineup that is playing well. Pike is all too comfortable substituting and it just torpedoed us

 

[DHajekRC84]

Great question,

 

[fluoxetine]

I hope a Radical Racer runs the ref over.

 

[Shell21]

Young literally makes the wrong decision every time . Simple swing pass he fails to make that would have been a wide open three . Instead he holds the ball and Paul has to jack up a forced shot at end of clock

 

[sct1111]

Unfortunately we have a lot of fouls

 

[BillyC80]

Kwasi with a key bucket and 1 after the timeout, to stop the bleeding. Gotta mount another comeback.

 

[RUChoppin]

Without Baker/Harper/McConnell on the floor, our offense gets gummed up. Young struggles to keep the flow, and Mulcahy is playing like a freshman tonight.

Yup. And caleb drills corner 3’s when hes open. When hes open from 3 from that corner hes gotta be shooting over 60%

 

[bac2therac]

Great question,

especially since "THEY" all said he would replace what Eugene provided....and yes he needs to play more

 

[Shell21]

Oh , and stop taking Ron out of game when he gets rolling

 

[ScarletteK80]

dammmit Pike needed a timeout there...it was 8-0 run and he let them turn it over again...terrible right there

Exactly

 

[RUby RED]

Pike needs to ride ron, caleb and geo like Capel rides johnson and mcgowens

 

[Degaz-RU]

he played the starters for the first 6-1/2 minutes of the half.

Yeboah brings more to the table, still see that
