Paul
- Thread starter S_Janowski
- Start date
I’ll also add that Paul should have put his ego aside and been okay with a slightly reduced/different role for his last year at Rutgers.
Love Pike locking the door and shutting off the porch light.
Really dumb move by Paul. Tarnished his legacy with a lot of fans, lost his Mr NJ thing he had going for him and is now unhappy across the country. Cant believe it.

Don’t know if this is Paul but would be hilarious if it’s true. Couldn’t happen to a worse guy.
At some point, when a team has to go in a different direction to improve and has to reduce the role of their current starting guards (or move on from those guards), it's not a guarantee that the grass is going to be greener on the other side.
This kids a ****ing joke. Hopefully he gets his life in order. Had a good deal here (too good) and basically spit in his HC's face
I find it interesting that Washington still hasn't formally announced him. Maybe it relates to him working on certain school credits or something? Just seems odd, especially when they had three other transfers in that they announced in early May (before Paul entered the portal).
He should have have chosen Notre Dame who needed replacement players.
Maybe ND cooled on him? Shrewsberry knew full well that RU only came back from that killer deficit @PSU when Paul was replaced by Derek.
And finished his masters here with tons of goodwill in NJ/NY area for opening future career doors.
If true, one heck of a cautionary tale.
Paul helped make RU a winner and because I feel the team was going in a different direction than the type that his game fit well in, he needed to find a program that he fit better into if he wanted to get enough miniuite to feel like he was contributing to their success.
Mulcahy gave Rutgers 4 good years , that should count for something
and if he felt his time as a Rutgers starter was at an end, I can understand his leaving as a grad transfer.
Just hope the unhappy camper rumor isn't true, he did enough at RU for me to want him feel good about being at Washington.
I mean he left for $400K (reportedly) at last possible minute and is still unhappy. Are we supposed to feel bad for him?
(Ignoring a couple of the troll posts ITT which as always are out of line)
Haters gonna hate. Most fans liked Paul but the haters love to pile on.
“I just saw a cloud outside that looked like the number 4. I think I’ll go on an anonymous bulletin board and trash a former player.” Lmao
Ummm…this is not necessarily Paul.
Context would have been helpful.
Some player in the Pacific Northwest is not necessarily Paul
This same thing was rumored about him a couple weeks ago. It's him.
No, no reason to feel bad for him. Just reason to be decent human beings. Too much to ask for sometimes. (And btw, no problem with your posts.)
He made his decision. Now he has to live with it.
Next.
Next.
This and the guy is one us - a rutgers grad ! So if he wants to get a masters degree somewhere else , that his choice and right . Do these same people get mad when a rutgers grad pursues a masters or JD somewhere else ?
Pike made the guy a two-time captain . All we heard was how a great of a kid he was , donating his NIL money to the food kitchen and showing appreciation to the band.
If he was a problem , pike didn’t handle it well. So I doubt that
The University of Washington men's basketball website has a story from June 29 announcing two transfers (from Lamar and Nebraska) to "fill out the class" and added to three previously announced grad transfers (none Mulcahy). Also not listed on the roster. He got his undergrad degree last Fall so...weird.
With Oskar now coming back and Austin Williams not announced but a done deal according to everyone then this would be the first time maybe ever that Pikiell will actually be out of scholarships. And Mulcahy burned bridges, certainly with the fans, and most certainly with the staff so definitely possible that the door was closed.

I hope it’s not him. I wish him well and want to see him succeed.
With that said I don’t think he made the greatest decision leaving. He loved it here and could have helped our team next year (albeit on a more limited/different role).
I hope it’s not him but there’s a good chance it is. Where there’s smoke there fire.
I don’t understand how he couldnt be happy if he got paid $400k. That’s an insane amount of money for someone with his skill set
Unless the NIL fell through
RHJ is only getting $560k for his two way contract

We all know that person that does really nice things for other people, but somehow still manages to rub people the wrong way.
That being said the only report I got (first hand) from someone within RU Athletics is that he was a great kid.
Not to mention I can’t imagine the NIL would even be on the table for him at RU.
His life is in order - he has a bachelors degree and is basically looking for a landing spot to play a game for some extra money - there are plenty of worse situations for a 22 yr old kid to be in.
We are better off. It was time to move on. Paul did some great things for the program and it's on to a new chapter.
If that works out of him, great. If it doesn't, that's his own situation to sort out. Onward.

Paul made faux pas when he tweeted computer generated image of himself in Washington jersey wearing the number four.
However, Paul never appeared on the team 2023-2024 roster or in a UW press release, unlike four other transfers. The roster shows another player wearing number four.
Lots of red flags for Paul which I posted to TKR a few weeks ago.

If we paid money to watch the pre-law Rutgers grad, donated money to get/keep the athlete on the team, and bled Scarlet blood with them....well, then yes. But comparing a non-athletic, pre-law grad picking a different law school to one of our athletes is quite the stretch.
Just highlighting the absurdity of the whole thing.
It was ok when cam transferred here. It was ok when Hughes and Duncan transferred here (we hang a banner proudly in the RAC) thanks to them.
It was ok when yeboah transferred here . Maybe stony brook has a special season if he stayed for his final year there.
Guys
I was not in the room when pike and Paul discussed , but I have enough confidence in pike that he made it clear that if Paul left, thar while he will still always be Rutgers family , that Rutgers has to move on to fill their roster .
Pike has a job too and a program to run …..

Pike not letting him back on the team and geo/ron/caleb never saying a good thing about him basically confirms everything. You can never trust these fake god guys.
Seriously??? He took a bag. Almost anyone would do it. Lay off
