OT: Rutgers basketball!!!!

[RU fan forever]

Yes, I know, this is a football board,
But, we are all Rutgers, please, I beg you,
Support this Coach and the basketball team, this year has been frustrating
But I believe the worst is behind us,
With the new players coming in, and with possibly the coach of the year, (yes I know hard to believe but, that's what the anounswers said) I feel basketball is on the right track, students,make it happen,
Don't give up,soon, I know you will be proud of RU basketball, Go RU!!

 

[LevaosLectures]

Shoulda won today. Heartbreaker.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

We have been in near wins 6 times this year. We are only one or two great players away from winning those games.

 

[Abro1975]

Last place again. Support the Wrestling team, at least they are good.

 

[RUtix4me]

I have a ritual, i watch rutgers games and then watch the movie ground hog day.

 

[RU fan forever]

Don't give up guys, better days ahead
Keep your heads up!!!

cheer up young man, been watching this mess since 1974, but, for the first time
I'm optimistic!!!

 

[czxqa]

These guys are much, much better. The games last year were unwatchable. 2 to 3 years they will be in the dance

 

[ScarletDave]

This team is definitely going Dancing in the very near future! 2-3 years it will be happening and it will be HUGE

Support them both. It is not about supporting one team over another.

 

[RU31trap]

This team plays very hard but does not know how to close/finish. However, they are moving in the right direction. One or two more key athlete and not only do they win this game they do it with authority. I watched the game and yes I see promise, now the coach needs seal a quality big man and a shooting guard that can rebound.

 

[rutgersal]

We need more depth and talent. We're on our way.

If these coaches can recruit I agree. They definitely can coach, no doubt about that. If they can't get the players then we'll begin the merry go round again in another 5 to 6 years. Man I really hope they get the players, but they're going to have to sell their vision. Because wins are going to be lacking, this collection of players just doesn't have B1G caliber talent.

wish them well, but I don't care about basketball.

Why do we have to choose.

Basketball is most certainly on the right track.....and as a wrestling first guy, I am really looking forward to the future.

Sorry to hear that, tell me, are you at school right now?

 

[LETSGORU91]

WTH??? Perhaps when they turn it around you will proudly jump on the bandwagon.

 

[Hondo77]

Last place again. Support the Wrestling team, at least they are good.

I support ALL of the teams, win or lose.

 

[RUonBrain]

Thanks for sharing

:flushed:

 

[colbert17]

For now I'll gladly take the heartbreaking losses this year compared to the uninspired, fundamentally poor, unwatchable, blow out brand of basketball we've had to suffer through over the past few years.

 

[Debtbubble]

 

[Kbee3]

Shoulda won today. Heartbreaker.

Absolute torture. I stopped watching the games with my friends. I got tired of trying to answer the question "How could they be this bad ?"
Field goal %..ranking---#315
3 pt. Field goal % ranking----#341
Free Throw % ranking-----#348
Talk about the gang that couldn't shoot straight
We've got a long, long way to go.

 

[RUNVA]

The Basketball team is on the right track. If they could shoot a fringing free throw. We would have won 4 to 6 more games.

 

[rurichdog]

Hit "a" free throw is right. Maybe someday we'll hit several. Still got a ways to go.

i agree, the mens team seems to headed in the right direction, unlike the ladies team which is going in to a dumpster fire

 

[PSUriseANDfire]

Your coach is doing a hell of a job. Nobody in the conference considers them a given win anymore. I thought it was a weird hire but it looks like it was a good one.

 

[TonyVolt]

Can't wait until Corey Sanders leaves. Can't stand watching him.

 

[urbanecane]

Can't wait until Corey Sanders leaves. Can't stand watching him.

Uhhhhhhhhhh what

 

[TonyVolt]

If you have any respect for the game of basketball, it is very hard to watch Corey (although he's much more 'reserved' this year).

 

[ruready07]

If you have any respect for the game of basketball, you'd realize there are a lot of ways to play it... thankfully

Wrong. Corey's reckless abandon and wild shots are in no way acceptable. You're wrong, sizzlechest. Now get back to knitting or whatever you do on a Sunday nights. Ok, chief?

 

[shields]

Tony, watch the wrestling team then.

 

[MGSA99]

Last place again. Support the Wrestling team, at least they are good.

Last place yes, but we are a much better last place team than last year.

Lol. What's with the wild talking? I wish I was relaxing knitting. The whole team plays too wild and careless for the level of talent we have.

 

[jsol_05]

If you have been watching since 1974, this cant be the first time that you are optimistic

 

[ruready4somefootball]

Bird and Magic? Just kidding,it's hard not to see how far this program has come. I feel next year is a post season, and 2 years is the Dance.

 

[RUfinal4]

i agree, the mens team seems to headed in the right direction, unlike the ladies team which is going in to a dumpster fire

I an curious about the ladies with an experienced hall of fame coach that has made final 4s.
Since I don't follow daily news for the ladies I have to ask those who know:
- are they playing mostly young players
- do they have injuries to top players
- do they have transfer players sitting out this year

I just find it very tough to believe the ladies are as bad as their record this year.

 

[Kbee3]

Last place yes, but we are a much better last place team than last year.

How long will that continue to be the theme here at Rutgers ?

I watched the women's game on big 10 network on Saturday. We are just bad. I didn't even see the same level of defense we have played in the past. None of our starters would start on most teams. Disappointing.
